The other thread about favorite mechanics is great, so let's also do the opposite: what are some of your most hated mechanics?

The bane of my existence in any pvp game is crowd control mechanics.

In general, I hate every player skill in pvp games which take away the opponent's ability to play.

I don't mind area denial when it's based on damage, rather than stunning. The Demoman's sticky bombs are a good example, which also can be countered. The Spitter in L4D2 is area denial, and if the team absolutely wants they CAN just run straight through the acid pool to sacrifice health to get where they need to be.
