(ex. in PVZ I scout that I can easily mow him down when I have like 3 immortals + a decent ground force and he has roaches and a few speedlings, after I push out the speed lings zip by me I take out as many as I can but they proceed to rape my mineral line and I end up losing) | ||

If the loss came from poor mechanics from me, then i have to take a break. Like in poker, don't play when you are on TILT | ||

if u manage to change it u will never be angry after a loss again, other feelings will come but anger is not 1 of them. and if u manage to do this ur improvement will skyrocket, trust me on that one ) there r always great temporary solutions like take a few deep breaths or take a break but inside u will be angry even if u dont punch things. eventually the more u lose u will slowly learn that its something u must lose to keep playing, else its not healthy to play at all imo | ||

I mean I try to take a lesson away from each loss but I just get so damn mad and it's stressful. Even if I had a really dumb loss, even if I feel the other one just won because he was lucky I type GG before I leave the game.It's a kind of mental attitude to be mannered no matter what. It's fun to have some emotion in it: If I win a tight game, I really scream "Yesss! YES!!!" If I loose a game which I should have won, typing "GG" calms me somewhat down already. | ||

But remember this. It's a natural feeling, when you've lost and feel dissapointed in yourself for not performing at your peak then it's simply the way it is. Now is the time to do something constructive of it, try to learn from your mistakes if you want to improve. It's a simple thought but the function behind it all. If you didn't play as good as you can. - What made you play bad? Are you tired? Is there something on your mind? Was your opponent simply better than you? (if so then there's nothing you could have done, and nothing to be mad at) There's always a logic in what we can do and can not. Why should I be angry with myself for failing to climb mount everest if I'm struggling with a small hill? Implement this thinking after a loss, it'll hopefully ease your rage if it's uncalled for and perhaps you can just laugh at it . Enjoy your victories, learn from your losses. Allow yourself to be human and feel what you feel. but don't take it out on others who don't deserve it or yourself as a person. | ||

Oh, does anyone else think the matching system often tells you your opponent is slightly favored even when he isn't? Sort of like a placebo to make you think you're doing better than you are. I got to 5th in my platinum league and I can't ever recall seeing myself even slightly favored. | ||

Now, if I ever actually competed in a tournament or something, I'd opt to not be a doucehbag. But currently just laddering up and down, I think we all can understand each others feelings and that it's nothing personal. | ||

I can't get angry in and RTS because im all on my own, unlike the team play not really sure what to suggest I really don't believe this, unless there's a condition causing it. | ||

You can't expect to always win and losing is a core part of the game, when it happens the best thing you can do is go watch the replay and see why you lost. At that point is when you are really learning the game, as winning games will not teach you anything. When you learn how to make your losses constructive then you will start moving forward. Sometimes when you play for too long you will build up a lot of stress, its the nature of starcraft, as your senses will get saturated. When that happens just go take a break. I am also angry when I know the reason why I lost.  | ||

My problem is that i dont even dare to play ladder matches because i am to scared , to be honest i dont really know why maybe its because you play against an unknown player and since people are known to fear the unknown i think its understandable. But if i dare to do a ladder match i feel so intense feeling like i am playing against a god of rts and i start to become paranoid so much about what hes going to do when i am not scouting. i have no clue how to really remove my fear in ladder matches ;s . Yeah, like I said, same here. Plus, with all the frequent ladder resets, it discourages me to even try to climb the ladder at all. | ||
