most of those people don't play competitive games.

or they just play moba's where they are just toxic players in general that blame everyone but themselves.

so when they lose a 1 v 1 they can't handle it cause they are "guud" at vidyagames and could never lose.

Because they use it well before the match is over, assuming they've won based on circumstances.

Feels great to pull a dodge/crit at the end and win it when they do that.

Fuk ur mum m8

In the FGC , GG doesn't mean SHIT any more. With Pokemon being my last remaining interest in anything competitive, I'm not going to ruin it for any one else. Pokemon might not be a fighting game, but I'm definitely more willing to send out whatever I can to not be a fucking douche to other players. If they battled well and kicked my ass, then NICE. If I came in and bodied their entire team, then NICE for taking it like a fucking champ.

I have no regrets.

Saying "gg" is a concession of defeat if you are in a losing postion.

If you say gg first, and are in the winning position, it's called an "aggressive gg" and is considered very bad mannered.

That is probably why. If you are winning you should never say gg first.

Like all things in life GG used to be a pure wonderful thing to say to people, after a rip roaring battle between two gladiators one must be the victor and whole heartedly in the spirit of the sport exclames 'good show ol beam gg!' to whitch the secondary responds with a tired quip but never the less glad to have finaly met his superiour with an equil 'gg indeed' was ruined.

how was it ruined? by incorectly spouted off way before the battle had ended, smugly mashing the persons face into it even when the victory seems to be on your hand. "HAHA YOU STUPID BASTARD IT IS I WHO SHALL WIN CLEARLY! QUIT NOW AND SAVE FACE" in the most rude way posible.

Because of this I view every GG with an uncertian glance, 'did he actualy ment it or is he being a jive turkey?'. crap on a stick

Well it was for me. I'm not going to go and assume you didn't have fun. If I thought it was a good game, then I'm going to say good game. It's your fault for getting angry when somebody just says it for no other reason than enjoying the game.

It doesn't always have to be a close call match for it to be a good game.

Seems sarcastic, especially if you say it after every single match. It doesn't really seem sarcastic if it actually WAS a good, close game that could have gone either way. Then I imagine the other guy will always consider it a kind gesture.

But crushing someone and then saying "gg" because "it's polite" is sort of like opening a door for someone and saying "you're welcome" regardless of whether they thanked you. It may be polite, but based on the context you can come across looking like a prick.
