    It was not an uncommon occurrence for people to play as, say, Symmetra, Torb or Hanzo and refuse to switch regardless of the circumstances of play and whether they were able to use those characters effectively. People got reported (and subsequently banned) for throwing matches and griefing constantly if they were on an off-meta or “troll” character in Overwatch 1. Thinking specifically around seasons 1-10 or so.

      That’s when I played. When it first released and for a few years afterwards. I usually played with friends at a high level though so maybe I just wasn’t exposed to trolls like that enough to form a memory.
