What is a rat? Well, in gaming terms, it's someone that skulks around, avoiding combat unless it's the last resort. They hide most of the game looking to surprise enemies in specific locations. While it may be hard to pinpoint when the phrase was popularized, it's been a staple of Tarkov players since the beginning.
Since the hardcore nature hints toward a slower playstyle, there were two types of players that rose to the top. Chads and rats. And as you can expect, there is one popular version for Twitch. Streamers love to play fast and furious, constantly seeking out enemies to entertain their fans.
That's where the hate of rats or campers came to fruition. There is nothing worse than running around and losing to a player hiding in a corner, especially in front of thousands of other players. But each to their own. Some people like to play it safe and maybe this spot will work for you.
While the "rat" phenomenon isn't as prevalent in battle royales especially Warzone or Apex Legends, it can still happen. Luckily, this spot doesn't seem threatening. While it's amazing and would be one of the most epic hide-and-seek spots, the likelihood of a zone landing on you, giving you the victory are slim to none. It's more of an amazing find for people that love to push the boundaries of maps.
But for those looking for a great rat spot to win, you need to look elsewhere.
