I never played this game and tried to decipher what this means by searching the terms, but all it did was reignite my dispassion for learning this game because it subjected me to reading the random opinions of the vocal fandom.

can someone who knows articulate why being "bronze torb main" is apparently the 3 word combination that means "objective loser"?

Bronze is the lowest level of combatant. Torb is a guy that built turrets so you didn't actually have to aim yourself. So he is playing the least skill based position and at a low level.

If you had really good tactical awareness it could be a valuable character to have on a team. I was a gold level torb at one point. But it was about map awareness and positioning and not mechanical skill.

thanks for the context!
