    It’s not trash talk at all though. And even ignoring the language itself, trash talk is towards your opponents (where still most people don’t get how to do it in a non-obnoxious way, i.e. someone spamming ez after they win a game isn’t trash talk it’s being annoying). Most of the really bad flame happens towards teammates because everyone needs to blame someone else.

    Irl sports get by just fine without people constantly being pieces of shit, I dunno why it’s so hard to apply that to online games.
