The absolute antithesis of what it means to be a member of a team. This term comes directly from the Call of Duty series where teammates are represented on a
minimap by small green arrows. In World at War and later installments, a
green arrow can be anyone outside of a player's squad.
A typical green arrow shows little regard for victory conditions, no self-preservation or communication skills, no weapon knowledge, and an overall lack of understanding with respect to basic gameplay mechanics. Always in direct contrast with "
blue arrow".
Teammate: "Hey,
green arrow, help me out. There is a sniper in that building, and you're right behind him."
Green Arrow: "..."
Teammate: "Why are you just standing there?"
Green Arrow: "..." (pulls out grenade)
Teammate: "Yes, at least
take him out."
Green Arrow: "..." (grenade detonates in hand)
Teammate: "..." >:(
