Ranked matches were plentiful, but one specific player's mindset was off-putting.
The name of the player is not important at this time, but we played about three ranked matches in a row. The first two times we fought, I thought, "OK, maybe this guy likes playing me". But after the third match he left an unexpected message: "Not that good".
So I went on to play my matches on ranked, and the guy sends me another message: "I'm waiting coward", and kept harassing me with message after message. Not being one to take the bait like a fool with bad sports, I went on an alternate account to see what this guy's all about in the public room he invited me in. There were even a few familiar faces I recently fought in ranked that were there. So I went in the lobby and played like usual until I was tired of fighting, and wouldn't you know it, he still called me a coward. Then I went back on my main account, still beat the guy convincingly, and yet he still called me a coward.
Ironically, when people lose to this player, he calls them either weaklings, scrubs, or noobs.
