Can someone call me the most fuckable twink while I'm throwing in Overwatch? >⁠.⁠<

I don't play a lot of pvp games but I jumped into one randomly and watched the comment stream trashtalk somebody by calling them a Twink over and over. And I didn't understand like is that offensive?

You're legit just calling them hot ngl

“twink” and “twinking” also have been used to refer to a particular kind of borderline unfair gameplay (similar to smurfing)

"Twink" is also an old MMORPG term that designates characters specially optimized to play in the lower pvp brackets with the biggest advantage possible.

For example, back in my days, in wow, a lot of people would play level 19 characters (Levels brackets for pvp were 10-19, 20-29 etc) with the best pvp gear for this level and enchants that no one in their right mind would pay for on a character that was not meant to stay stuck at this level forever.

A non-geared level 19 hunter in a battleground was already scary if you were around level 10, but these mfs could basically only be defeated by other twinks.
