Imagine queuing up for some competitive Marvel Rivals games, only to have multiple players in your lobby drop zero eliminations to go along with their 50-plus deaths.
It may sound like an exaggeration of the teammates we all seem to find in online games, but it's real, and there's a very dumb reason for it. Over the past few weeks, Marvel Rivals players and content creators like Flats have become the target of "incentivized throwing" via a third-party website where people post bounties to queue into specific players' lobbies and throw their matches.
