"It's not about winning, it's about being the most toxic" is a team motto started by four teammates in the Call of Duty clan TOX1C, who frequented Warzone lobbies together.
The motto went viral on Call Of Duty News on July 20th, 2022.
Traditionally the phrase is split into two parts when a "toxic" play is made.
Traditionally it is used to acknowledge a players toxic play:
Teammate one: *Uses grenade launcher*
Teammate two: "Its not about winning"
Teammate one: "Its about being the most toxic"
Alternatively, it can be said in unison, when plays are made in unison:
All teammates: *riot shields*
All teammates: "It's not about winning, it's about being the most toxic!"
