In Feast it's more along the lines of people who try to run the clock out. You end up with a lot of people who like to play on the back foot and stay close to, or even inside, their spawn. Then they try to kite the enemy up and down the steps over and over to waste time on an early lead instead of actually fighting. I fully acknowledge that there is a time and a place for that tactic. If you're in the last 20 seconds or so, then sure. Run the clock all you want, but if you have 2 minutes left? or 3? or 5? No. That's not just cowardly; it's stupid. Even in the best possible circumstances, playing defensively means taking a sustained beating. The longer it's drawn out, the more you will bleed in resources. It's better to force the enemy to retreat by fighting them off, rather than let them just beat the hell out of you for an entire match and eventually steal your points.

Of course, using honest and direct terms like "coward" and "stupid" is obviously rude and a product of our corrupted North American moral values. It would be mcuh more morally praiseworthy to use terms such as "passive aggressive" or "simple," even if those terms are untruthful. It would be even better to say nothing at all, because honesty is really just silly nonsense. It's a deeply immoral thing and is liable to offend the delicate sensibilities of English speaking players ... even if no one was forcing them to read the chat box in the first place ...
