Tilt? how can i fix it

Fukauph··1 votes·663 views

Ok so i am very tilty. And no matter how much i improve i cannot stop tilt. For example. I just got off a 14 game win streak. I main top/mid pantheon and fortunately got my role for about 10 games in a row ( i managed to win 3 with champs i never played). But since then i have got 5 games in a row where top/mid gets taken. All 5 games the people who take my roles get wrecked, and me not being great in anything else is unable to carry. Its pretty fustrating. The strange thing is i dont feel like im losing becasue my mmr is higher and im against better players. Its literally because when im tilted maybe i take bad news worse? or i dont try as hard? or i type more?

So im not sure if im crazy, crazy bad, or if other people have this issue. I mean i have tried playing other roles. I mean a good amount to, ive played almost every champ. Its just a spent a lot of time on my pantheon and i feel very very confident i can win while playing him solo lane. (im making this post after a nasus went duo top and then afkd so yes im tilted) Anything i can do to lessen the damage of not getting pantheon mid/top?

As long as behavior and not player improvement is the main focus for league, you will tilt at times unless you can just force yourself to push through it. If you can't then you probably need to play another game because no matter how much a player sucks at this game and no matter how many games they ruin by sucking, as long as they behave they are welcome to continue to suck and ruin games.

I am trying to push through and wait for those games where I have team mates that don't suck. I am sure there are times that I suck as well but I am not the type of player that continues to suck and ruin games because I am always trying to improve myself so I don't ruin games for others like those that are satisfied with sucking do.

It's a shame that RIOT don't encourage player improvement but that's what we have to deal with if we want to play.

ya its a great game but i dont understand the way some of these things work. Like having new players start out with no sums/masteries while other players can be level 30? #1 New players wont even know what a jungler is until level 10 and will probably already be used to going 2 top. SO around level 10 things get really trolly and confusing since experiance players know a jungler is better for your team but the new players do not. #2 Getting raped (as a brand new player) vs a level 30 khaz is not fun. Not sure what the logic is here, like do they even put though in match making?

That's what I mean. There is no player development measures, only player behavior.

Get an anger management course. You are not the only who has or had that problem, its learnable.

Edit: You wanna avoid tilting at all costs. When you tilt and get adrenaline, your brain switches to fight/flight mode and loses his ability to think straight.

well hear me out. I See your point and maybe you are right. But the 13 in a row i won was not because i carried super hard everygame. It was simply becasue i had 13 cool teams that would let me get top if i asked. (OR they would say " im a plat smurf ill carry" In that case i will just fill and learn as much as i can while trying to win) I also had 0 afks all games. So yes im on a very tilting losing streak that at times feels out of my control. Like i just lost another one. Like at this point i think riot is actually trolling me and laughing. I get a player that claims top/mid AND takes my pantheon. I am already tilted beyond belief here so i just random picked jhin and ran around the map while this pantheon gets f blooded and goes 0/3 in 5 min. I donno this game is GREAT with cool players but when im with bad players i will become bad. I am very passionate when i invest my time into things. And when i dont get top/mid because a terrible player HAS to take it and gets wrecked i cannot stop being upset. And upset enough to not give a fuck about the game or my teammate.

ALL THINGS SAID. I back up my talk. I spend the time to get better. I watch high elo players, coaching vids. I actually have been watching a lot of Keegun since he is a pantheon main. Been playing pantheon for years but lately if been getting even better with him. I mean during my win streak i shut down a plat Lee sin and carried my team to victory. I also NEVER get mad about getting wrecked in lane. Like if i lose lane because of one cheese gank, or if i get camped i learn from that and ward better next game. I wont ever flame my jungler for not ganking, or bot feeding ect. I dont flame players for making mistakes. I just flame people that are terrible and go out of their way to waste my time. Its like theyd rather spend their time wasting mine then learning how to play the game. And me being the way i am, when im tilted i will like you said "fight or flight" i would much ratehr flight in situations like these. they feeling of being trapped inside a game with this a hole tilts me. I think that may be the root of my problem. The feeling of being trapped. Kinda like being in traffic or waiting in line. But even in those situations you can take the back streets, or just not ride the ride.. In lol you just have to deal with getting fuckedd in the asss for 20+min since the player thasts doing the worst will not ff. ANYWASY THATS MY RANT. Thanks for listening

It sounds to me like your issue isn't tilt, it's that you're a one trick pony. There's nothing wrong with that, but you're going to have to expect to get punished when you're outside your comfort zone. Personally, I suggest that at your level you're better off focusing on learning all the different roles instead of winning. Make sure you have at least one champ you're comfortable with in every role in case of auto fill, and understand that if you're in a role you're not comfortable with, you're probably not going to be able to be the one that caries the game.

As far as the frustration goes, sometimes you just need to take a step back. It's a team game and sometimes there's nothing you can do even when you get your role. If you finish a game in a particularly bad mood you're probably better off getting up and walking away from your computer for a bit until you calm down. The worst thing you can do is start a new game while you're still upset about the previous one.

Try taking a few seconds to calm down, re-look whatever situation you're in, then try to continue on in a positive manner, if you're getting repeatedly tilted, take a break with league, or what always cheers me up is a custom game with friends where we just meme!

Yes you need to put a lot of time into maybe 2 or 3 other champions if you really want to overcome that weakness.

Diana is a good one to learn. She's AP, has hard engage and can snowball. I recommend her for your mid pick either when you can't take panth mid or there is way too much AD on the team and you need AP. Fizz might be good too, but Diana would probably be more up your alley after Pantheon. She's got a kind of similar kit layout (q for poke, w e r for melee engage). Lastly she's capable of going top or jg as well.

For your top secondary pick, that's a little harder to assume. Pantheon is pretty unique amongst AD Champs in his simplicity and effectiveness. Bottom line is that any back up you pick will probably need to be practiced heavily.

Gnar Fiora Jayce

These 3 are fun to play and fun to learn imo. They're great top laners and if you can play a combo of maybe panth, fiora and either gnar or jayce top you'll be pretty versatile in champ select.

If you need an easy tank in the arsenal, either when you don't feel comfortable about a match up or get filled, I recommend Nautilus

He's simple, tanky af, and is a cc machine. He also does surprising dmg and synergizes nicely with all ADC's.

cool thanks ya ill try diana. i am actually pretty good with maokai.. but at the same time prob terrible lol. Like ive played him enough to where i can make pretty good engaes late game but i have trouble getting to the point where im unkillable. Ive watched a lot of NEACE and he is able to do it consistantly but he plays him jungle. So its like i know every champ can be op if you play them right it just takes like you said it can take time to fully understand a champ. My issue with playing tanks i feel like is not being in the right place at the right time. Im pretty bad with TP since i always bring ignite with pantheon.

Im also decent with naut top lane.. but is it me or is he only good if you have a jungler who takes advantage of his cc? Because unless i make a good tp play i cant see myself getting that many kills and being able to carrry. Roaming is probably HUGE with naut top lane. I guess i just dont how to do it with out top lane getting wrecked

Thats just a play style change. Its cool if a tank gets a bunch of kills, but really they're excelling if they get others kills. That means not looking to really kill your enemy laner, just survive long enough to assist your jungler ganking. You'll be looking bot lane for good tp's whilst expecting to keep it boring top. If your jg ganks and its successful (usually is with naut) try to get him to help you shove wave in. The faster a top lane tank gets first tower down the faster they can group.

While behind after your first tower falls, look to group more than split to clear. You aren't a bruiser/carry, so unlike panth you'll be looking to ensure a winning team fight over a 1v1 or solo push any day.

When you play a team fight as a tank, you're probably thinking "I'm the engage I gotta make things happen". This is partially true. Think about the most annoying team fights to deal with as a carry.

You're fed, you're grouped, you're looking for a weakness and bam, the tank snags someone in your team. You all turn as team fight starts, trying to bypass the tank and kill the squishies. The tank says nah homie don't play that. Just as soon as the tank is dumping cc on you, they're already backing up and just getting in the fkn way of whoever is going deep. You all get slaughtered as the tank interrupts one person, moves, interrupts another person, moves. They don't get any kills, they just get in the freakin way.

Do that with Naut. Just look to be annoying XD

Don't focus on "I have to win"

Just play to have fun and do your best. Stay positive and congratulate your teammates on good plays.

Tilt only comes from focusing on one thing and not letting up.
