From one Reyna main to another, here is a letter with all the things we all want to say to the InstaLock Reyna’s we encounter:
“Dear Instalock Reyna: A Heartfelt Letter From Your Past, Current, and Future Teammates”
Dear Instalock Reyna,
First off, let me just say, we get it. You love being the star of the show. You thrive on frags and basking in the radiant glow of your Leer. But, my dear Reyna, there are a few things we’ve been dying to get off our chests. So, grab your Devour orb and take a seat, because it’s time for some tough love.
- “Yes, we know you’re a duelist, but could you maybe, just once, consider buying something other than a Sheriff in the pistol round? We promise, the classic or ghost won’t bite.”
- “Oh, look, Reyna’s got the bomb again. Should we start placing bets on how quickly she’ll run into the enemy team solo?”
- “Hey Reyna, thanks for letting us know you’re flanking. It’s not like we wanted to coordinate or anything. We’ll just hold our breath and hope for the best while you charge in like a bull in a china shop.”
- “Leer is such a versatile ability, isn’t it? Shame it seems to work best when you’re off lurking somewhere in a distant land instead helping us with entry and to clear site.”
- “Listen, we get it, you’re popping off. But maybe, just maybe, rushing isn’t always the best tactic? It’s okay to leave a frag or two for the rest of us — it’s not a one-man/woman show, you know.”
- “Ah, the classic Reyna ult. Go ahead and take that orb Reyna because it’s not like our sentinels are 1 orb away from their ults and yours is just so impactful for the rest of the team. “
- “Reyna, sweetie, you’re not immortal. Yes, even with that overheal. Maybe consider backing up once in a while instead of diving headfirst into a 1v5.”
- “Oh look, Reyna’s bought an Operator. Guess we’ll just have to wait five rounds for her to be able to afford Light Armor.”
- “Thanks for letting us know you need healing while you are halfway across the map. We’ll get right on that, once we’re done clutching our sides from laughter or…tears”
- “And here we see the elusive Reyna, in her natural habitat, lurking in the shadows, waiting for the perfect moment to… Leer at nothing and then get shot in the face.”
So, dear Instalock Reyna, while we may poke fun at your antics, just know that deep down, we appreciate the chaos you bring to our games. But maybe, just maybe, next time you could consider picking up a few tips on how to be a team player. Or, you know, maybe don’t instalock right off the bat, and if you do lock Reyna, perhaps you could blind for the team instead of some lone covert ops mission through mid, you know? It’s the little things that make all the difference.
With exasperated love, Signed with the Tears of Your ever-patient teammates.
