War Pig

A Stereotype of a player or players who uses a certain weapon/character/or item. The stereotype is not of the weapon itself but of the players who use it.

“War pigs” are at all skill levels however they will over estimate how good they actually are. This will often lead to them getting into situations that will lead to their death.

The term was coined and closely associated with the Team Fortress 2 YouTube’s Soundsmith.

That player who just tried to fight the entire enemy team alone is a war pig.

A War Pig

A Stereotype used in gaming to describe someone who overestimates their own skill.
The person may be very skilled at the game but they will always think they are better then they are.

It originates from the "Hat stereotypes" series on youtube by Sound Smith and refers to the item in Team Fortress 2 by the same name.

The "Direct Hit" is a War pig.
