Victory Is Evil

EEEEEEEEVIIIIIIIIIIL!

When winning something, such as competition of some kind, is the wrong thing to do. Due to whatever conditions, the could-have-been winner chooses to deliberately lose for the greater good. If the person who will soon be victorious is Mere Moments Away from winning, they might screw their high chances of winning by losing after thinking about what would happen if they won. Sure, they'd have the short-lived pride of victory, but it could be meaningless or even harmful if they do win. This is an especially probable consideration if they happen to look at their friend who is giving them a Guilt Stumble look that's powerful enough to have the attacker undergo a Change Of Heart. "Winning" can also refer to defeating another person in general, like in a Legal Battle or finally Getting The Last Word through means of a harmful prank or a Convoluted Set-Up whose intention is to injure or kill the receiving end of the set-up.
