Overwatch: 9 Jerk Moves You Need To Stop Doing

2. The Old Spam Emote Dance-Off

Blizzard's addition of dance emotes to all Overwatch's characters (except arguably Reaper, but he's no fun) was a big hit with the player base. Soldier 76's awkward dad moves, McCree's manly line dance, and Winston's version of the Twist were all enormous fun.

But even something as wholesome as an innocent dance is but a tool in the Overwatch jerk's hands. A favourite trick is to gather in the centre of the map dancing, as if demanding the other team to abandon their game and join them in a sort of virtual love-in.

It's impossible for the opposition to win. Do they join the dance and engage in a . tedious staring contest where everyone waits for everyone else to get bored and give up? Do they run to the point or attack the dancing idiots, and make themselves the bad guy? Either way the match is rendered irrelevant, and the jerks have given themselves something to complain about as if any of this wasn't what they wanted.
