I believe Red and Blue normally get partys and yellow gets solos.

That's why yellow loses often. The parties can do better in team games.

Sometimes the solos are all skilled players and can hold their own. Other times they suck.

This game was the perfect storm.
Good game with a really smart choice in community management that has managed the hype incredibly well.
Mediatonic deserves all they get for this.

That's how we'll delete team games, first we start by saying a team of x color sucks to the point where a tweet like the one in the OP is made...once that team is deleted, we move on to call another team terrible until they do this again. Eventually there will be no more team, so no team games!

It's totally the best plan!

They'll remove yellow team and then introduce the completely new, totally unique... Mustard Team.

It's so funny and mind-blowing to me that yellow team became a thing, because I was already complaining about them on day 3 and had never heard anyone memeing about it. My issue with yellow is that they're dirty cheats and saboteurs, always going for the eggs/balls in your nest or diverting your ball in Rock n Roll.

I've had two Rock n Roll matches where yellow has abandoned their ball prematurely and jumped down to harass the other two teams. There must be something to yellow team being the soloist pool (though I do get queued into it with friends occasionally).

I've never played the game. Anyone want to take the time to explain what the problem is with Yellow Team? Just curious.
Some bad players do not understand that they sucks and blamed the yellow team as a the problem now is spreaded and everytime a people lose and it is in the yellow team it blame the color but do not realize you lose with every team.

I'm always yellow. For the longest time, I though yellow was supposed to be "your" team, you know, colors changing depending on the point of view or something because I was never anything else. I still win a decent amount of time.

It's just become a meme that Yellow always gets the worst players, lol.

Wait, so is this a real thing or not? Other posts suggest that new players or solo players get put on Yellow more often. Is that baseless?

...I may have to buy this game now to satisfy my curiosity.

That much i understood. But why lol?
The internet was made for drawing lines in the sand for very stupid and meaningless things. I'd argue it's this tradition that's been corrupted into making the internet into the joyless painful nightmare it currently is.

What they *should* do is simply make it so that everyone sees themselves as Yellow Team, with appropriate texture and colour swaps across the board.

Edit: Actually, that'd be a fun April 1st thing.

I'm like 85% always on yellow team and I hate it. I don't think I've ever been on the red team.

To be fair, I feel most of the time I don't lose while on yellow, but it definitely feels like it gets targeted a lot. Though I basically never win on the ball rolling game if I'm on yellow. Blue and red immediately fuck us up on that one...

It's 100% not a real thing, lol. I've won just as much on Yellow as I have lost on Red or Blue. It's just the luck of the draw with team mates.

The only team game I've had consistent success in is hex/tail tag. Egg scramble is awful but at least I can cheese the hitbox by keeping people in the pit.

It's definitely not equal odds to land on a team. I play solo and I'm yellow 95%, blue 5%, and never been green or red.
