The amount of rage I have for this game is ridiculous.

I don't know why ranked games get me so angry. Every game it's the same, I do semi-decently but my team just keeps dying over and over again. I'm calm at first but if someone says something to me in chat, I just get so angry. I've tried muting chat and pings but it still doesn't work. All I see is useless bots running it down mid lane.

Last game, I had a a 3 man. They all decided to troll and run it down. The leader, I'm assuming, was a smartass Blitz who never stopped talking shit. Again, I can't handle this anger I have because of this. All of my teammates scores were 0/8-1/8. I get so pissed off because of this and I know I can't win the game even if I make no mistakes.

How can I control my anger when I'm in games? How can I resist tilting in game and afterwards? How do I deal with trolls?

I feel helpless so maybe you guys can help.

Give less fucks. It's just a game. Ranked only has as much meaning as you put on it. Go read the tao te ching before playing. Even just one page. Also just be aware you will lose matches while playing any game. Sometimes badly. This next one could be the one. You will also win and sometimes by an equally great margin. Both have to exist for either to occur.

If you end up in a game with toxic assholes, don't lower yourself to their level !

Keep in mind, you can't control what your teammates are doing, so yeah sometimes a game isn't winnable because of them, but sometimes it'll be because of you, there will always be one or two of your teammates that does bad, the game wouldn't be fun otherwise, that way there is a real challenge, you can carry people and so on.

Remember too that even if sometimes you'll loose because of them, you're the only factor you can control on these games so over the course of hundreds of games it's only your own skills and macro that matters and make you climb/fall, because statistically the enemy team will have those people in their team too.

You are making mistakes too ! you may not realize it because it's 10 times easier to see other's mistakes but sometimes your team will loose because of you ! Don't get mad over one game, take it as a way to improve, watch the replay and ask you what you could do better next time you're in a similar situation. You won't progress if you always blame your team, it's useless instead focus on the only factor that will help you climb : you There are always people saying "i can't climb because of my teammates", but this is bullshit, you can always work on your skills and carry those games instead of crying.

Seriously being negative in chat will only help you loose ! It'll only helps you get a punishment.. so be positive tell them "we can win this !"

"I do semi-decently" and you want to win ? Do you think no one but you gets the 0-20 in 15 min bot lane ? It's funny , i had the same mentality as you and i was stuck in mid plat for 2 years and now i'm dia and if a shitter like me can get dia , you can too .

Ex lamer here

  1. Realize there is nothing you can do about it...and it will happen again and again. Best thing you can do to reduce variance in trolls on your team is duoing meaning 1 less likely person is a troll.

  2. Tilting in the sense of being frustrated or annoyed is fine BUT you shouldn’t express that negativity in game. Again, why I like duoing is I can talk in voice chat with who I am with and we can express our annoyance. This venting process helps.

  3. You can’t really. Mute them if it’s verbal harass. If it’s cs steak try to out cs them or go to another lane. DONT do something bannabld yourself (flame, INT, afk, etc)?

I will admit, but your stats you don’t look as good as you think you are. Work on those mechanics. It’s good you want to be competitive but by your stats I don’t see you being able to carry games. GL
