limits to be "good"at what they're doing. This almost always leads to them being worse or
failing.
Example:
Person 1: "She's a great singer, but she pushes herself to hard. She'd be better if she pulled back a bit."
Person 2: "Yeah, she's really a
tryhard."

noun. "tryhard"
Used as an insult in online gaming to describe a player who attempts to use strategy, tactics, maneuvers, plays, etc. well beyond their own skill level (adj. "trying hard"). These players will often watch pro gaming streams and YouTube Let's Plays and attempt to copycat the person playing despite not having enough skill or technical prowess to be able to do so effectively.
Tryhards are not to be confused with bad players. The primary distinction is that
tryhards will respond negatively to gameplay suggestions or criticism, and will frequently lash out against anybody who attempts to stray outside the established
metagame.
Example:
Player 1: "I can't believe you picked that guy! He's a
shit-tier hero! You suck!"
Player 2: "Calm down, I picked this guy because I like playing him. You should focus more
on the game and less on me."
Player 1: "You're just a noob, lol. Everybody knows that pro players never pick that hero. Learn to play."
Player 2: "You're doing terrible this game, you fucking
tryhard. You're the one who needs to learn to play!"

A
tryhard is an excuse people use as to why they lost something, typically a game.
The person who uses the word implies that they weren't trying to win, and are calling the other person a tryhard because they WANT to win.
Amongst friends just wanting to have fun, this is a valid excuse. Though, this is mainly used by people (in games such as
Modern Warfare 2) who
go around playing against random people and losing.
Example:
Person 1: We're gonna beat you this game, noob.
Person 2: I
doubt it.
(After the game,
person 2's team wins)
Person 2: I thought you were going to win?
Person 1: Shut up. You're just a
tryhard.
