I don't think anyone ever died from getting angry over a video game.
Do you go see a doctor when your first love gets you excited? I doubt it..

Pffft, thats nothing, you kids are casual as heck.

I've had constant 250 since I was ELEVEN.
I also lift weights,play football AND on top of it I do boxing,rowing,climbing and sudoku.

like a bau5




I have over 9000.

Nah seriously, I actually get somewhat scared when I go over 150 (and I do feel it so I measure it then). -_- But I've heard that the "standards" can vary quite a bit for different people.

Are you serious lol. Do you breathe really deep and fast during the game? Sound like you are hyperventilating.

just spam ladder, i don't get any stress from that anymore. Also works: play quirky fro some time so you take some losses by expectation. This helps in devaluing your "internal importance rating" of your sc2 account. In fact nobody cares about your ladder rank and/or nobody has to know in case =)

Lolol trying to imagine that!

Personally if you are having a really really epic game and you haven't had one for a while you do get all jittery. But I don't think the difference is going to be that major most of the time. Especially if you are a experienced ladderer and you just chill while you play.

If you actually think this is a problem. Smoke more weed drink less caffeine.

High-blood pressure does not mean you are a stressed person. I have a rather high pressure but I am still a very relaxed person and laddering is not a stressful experience for me.

I can tell when my BP goes up, and laddering is not one of those circumstances. To make sure, I tested though, and my BP did indeed go up slightly. Not significantly, but still on a level where it couldn't have been anything else. Then again, it is pretty stressful to be able to perform 5-7 actions at once for more than a half hour.
I hate when people compare SC2 and rochambeu. One race isn't fucking supposed to counter another one. | Protoss isn't OP. Their units on the other hand....

hmm, HBP isn't actually a good thing. As mentioned, 140+ is considered high for systole. 12/8 is considered the normal pressure

Felix Faure, the 7th president of France, is reputed to have died from hypertension secondary to a blow job in 1899.

Hypertension can cause spontaneous strokes and sudden death, but it can also cause a gradual transformation of blood vessels across the body and lead to other more insidious problems like kidney failure (dialysis is not fun) and aneurysms, which can themselves break under pressure and hemorrhage.

OP and whitelotus please see your doctor immediately

hypertension carries a lot of risk factors such as coronary artery disease which is the leading cause of heart attacks. basically a high BP means that there is so much stress on your cardiovascular system that your body cannot compensate for it. a high BP means your heart is under much greater stress and combined with other factors could lead to heart failure. any systolic above 140 is considered high and you should be making changes to diet/exercise/take medications to lower your BP.



Please stop scaring people, and stop telling lies.

A single measurement says nothing, unless it's above 220 (or like 110 diasystolic).
Anything else can be a normal reaction of your body (like stated by several people above me) from stressfull situations.

You should measure your BP in a normal situation, because that's the state you will be in most of the day. You can either measure that yourself, or ask your general practioner. Best would be to take several standard moment (like breakfast/lunch/dinner/before sleeping), to see it vary over the day.

I would only do that though if there's many people in your family with cardiovascular problems, or when you have an unhealthy lifestyle or are obese.

-edit: and the biggest one: if you are a smoker
