What is it that Octane players don't understand?

High gold rank and these are lines I have to write to Octanes every single game: Dude, don't run off. Stay together! Where are you going? Wait, don't go solo! Do you wanna fight 1v3? Etc.... ...

@Nandor78 Don't know, but I had one Octane drop solo, he killed 5 people where he dropped to.. Teammate and I dropped to the place near Cryptos sat dish. Teammate who dropped with me gets knocked I proceed to knock 2 of the people who dropped him and almost have thee third eliminated.. He then DC's.

Octane flies to swamps, I meet up with him. We proceed to win thee match he posted 3200 damage and I posted 2400. I thought for sure the Octane would be a loot goblin and just a bad teammate, he actually was a really good teammate minus the solo drop. Never heard a word from him until we win the match and I get a GG.

That scenario is not very common with the Octanes I talk about. I just finished a game where both I and the other squadmate were yelling at Octane to stop and stay in the team. But no, he just ran off, jumped into 2 squads, and died.

It's the same over and over with Octanse, in 8 out of 10 games....

Easy answer, they don't understand battle royal games.

  @MandatoryIDtag It's not just Octane mains though and not all octane mains are bad. I love a good octane on my team as it works great with Bangalore. I can ult people and use the jump pad to push aggressively when they are stunned.

    @DarthValtrex Yeah but that's a given lol, we're talking about the specific breed of apex player here that the OP is complaning about, which is why I felt no need to play devils advocate. 😛
