Overwatch Fans Highlight Popular Player Excuses with Hilarious Memes
The Overwatch community has had plenty of memes over the years, ranging from High Noon jokes about Cassidy to nods to Genji’s constant need for healing. Now, the latest Overwatch trend sees players poking fun at their teammates.
Similar to Overwatch’s silly tier list memes, the lists of teammate excuses have quickly spread across the game’s subreddit. Each post looks at a specific role in the game, with the image showing the heroes in that category and then the go-to excuses those that play them have. With several characters made fun of through these memes, nobody is safe from being called out. Considering that all Overwatch players have likely heard one of the excuses before, the memes should prove to be relatable.

Overall, the comments were a mix of Support healers saying that many of the excuses are valid and other roles getting enjoyment out of the meme. Another post went on to highlight reasons Tank players will say they are struggling, and it is equally funny.
