A technique for those seeking to be less toxic during unwinnable games.

League games often feel like one is holding their breath through every play, only releasing the tension when victory is assured.

Make an effort to acknowledge each game as it's own entity and understand that one loss is meaningless in the grand scheme of things.

Focus only on the game you are in and be willing to accept a loss. Take a deep breath and realize that a loss in this game is meaningless in the greater picture of your season 7 experience.

Many of us are holding our breath throughout a game and as a loss appears more likely, we have a mounting dread growing like a wild animal backed into a corner. This leads to irrational, emotional lashing out. It's our bodies way of quickly fixing things through panic.

Accept the possibility of a loss and look beyond it. After a match we all calm down and care less about past losses. This technique is about accessing that way of thinking during the game.
