skill issues

it's not even an insult. these days, most people don't even know what an actual skill issue is and just use it because it's an easy way to farm likes. / examples of skill issues: not grasping the controls, poor judgment, bad timing, no sense of direction, doing the same thing over and over and dying every time, etc. / examples of things that are NOT skill issues: connection problems, distractions, pet jumping on your lap/desk, matchmaking with randoms and getting bad teammates, other team is just that good, other team is a competitive group, teammates disconnecting, etc.
