You’re not referring to new players when you use the phrase, noob? Really!? Okay… I doubt just about anyone else will see it that way, but I digress…

As for a player who refuses to learn the game and who does the same thing over and over? Well, they’re what I would definitely call an inexperienced player. And you know what? They probably use the same tactic over and over again because they think they found what works for them in most cases (and are probably ignorant enough to not realize that there’s a counter for just about anything - which, BTW, is also a sign of a new player). It’s your job to counter that as their opponent so they can learn from it. If they’re unwilling to learn, and complain and moan, well then, that’s on them - if they do that, give them the answer or solution. You’d be surprised at how many would be willing to listen (I know, I’ve done it numerous times). There is no need to demean them in the process (and there should NEVER be). Let them make the decision to drop out on their own if they can’t or aren’t willing to take the time to figure it out - there’s no need to demean them and hasten that process while simultaneously giving our community a bad image. A positive attitude goes a long way (the glass should ALWAYS be seen as half full IMO) and as I always like to say, “kill them with kindness.”
