Try-Hard

A person who puts too much effort into a video game, and cares too much about winning. Usually such a person uses cheap tricks or unfair techniques in order to win. All of their insults involve calling people children and insulting them based on their stats. These people have massive egos and can't accept that their stats have no value in the real world. Their entire social life revolves around the one or two games they spend all day playing, and constantly compare their stats to other people. These players are total Stat-Whores.

Player #1: Look at that Try-Hard. He's been shooting premium ammunition all game.
Player #2: He has 3k games, and all of them are in his IS-6. That must be a re-roll.
Player#: Wow, what a Stat-Whore.

Trying Hard

Using everything you have aim, texting, phone calls, buying gifts etc. to get a girl's attention which, if done right, will result in some kind of sexual attention from the girl. The harder and better you try the more you are obligated to get from the specific girl. There are 2 certain types of trying:
1.Sympathy
ex. when a guy tells a girl how he wants to find the girl of his dreams but is not hot enough for any girls and the girl he likes doesn't like him back; this includes the use of smiley's such as :/, :, D:, :( etc.
2.Cockiness
ex. when a guy uses words that intimidate the girl that he is trying with, he will try to get her to admit that she likes him no matter what it takes mostly by hanging out with her and talking to her a lot over texting. this type of trier is usually the more confident one and he is most likely to get something out of it.

Adrian: Yo Wesley you suck at trying so bad, you always use the sympathy type, your a n00b.
Berries: yea man you really do suck; Adrian is ten times better than you.
Adrian: Yea dawgz, im the master of trying.

-or-

Wesley: Yo i have been trying hard with this girl Nicole for like 2 weeks now and we might hang out this weekend.
Adrian: Ow shit the one on your top on myspace?
Wesely: Yeah, why?
Adrian: I've been trying with her for 2 days now and yesterday i boned her.
Wesley: WHAT! how did you do that?
Adrian: I used the cocky trying not the sympathy.
Wesley: Oh no wonder i couldn't get anything.

Try hard

A person that just does the most and her effort is greatly appreciated because it's sick to have a person in your life that puts in the best she has when she does something (it's a compliment)

Me: Wow, detective P solved that case in 2 weeks when it had been pending for 7 years, she such a try hard 🥴

Try Hard

Someone who puts great effort into achieving small, unimportant objectives (e.g. drop shotting to get a quick kill, studying for a quiz, etc.) and often fails in the process, thus creating more embarrassment, due to the fact that they tried incredibly hard.

Brandon Pugh is a textbook example of a try hard. He consumes his leisure hours scanning and memorizing his Physical Science textbook; he is then later scolded for knowing completely nothing about it, and failing all his quizzes. This then reduces him to a completely monotonous, often suicidal facial expression, which indeed points out his try hardness.
