Give Me Tips on How Not to Get Mad

I'm an angry person. I always have been. Toxicity is really easy for me, but only when other players attack me first. I've learned not to get mad at players who are legitimately trying and just get destroyed, but when people attack me first I become very, very toxic because muting just isn't enough for me. I don't want to give up on the league community, and I don't want to get banned, so obviously there has to be some sort of middle ground. Give me tips on how not to be a jackass besides just muting all or disabling chat, because I feel like there are people out there who are legitimately fun to play with just because of the way they act.

It's a game, even in ranked treat it like what it is.

For me, I started reminding myself every 5 seconds that it's literally just a game. If I'm getting angry at people over a game, yet I keep playing it, I'm either addicted or a troll myself.

I hope I'm neither. And so to convince myself of that, I stop getting mad at people.

Try to take deep breaths when you are angry.

I used to get very angry. I would yell, curse, flame, throw things, etc.

Meditation calmed me down. It was a gradual change.

Can i be honest? you want the bold truth?

Grow the hell up, you're playing a video game.

Dude ragers amaze me, clearly you're toxic to your soul. You're confronting something very dark, you are emotionally weak and you basically need to see a shrink for this type of thing.

Remember this is a video game

remember its about having fun

remember you're playing with people who have similar win ratios to you, or that you plan to surpass in ranked

so the more you win the less shitty the team

but

you gotta climb through a lot of shit until people are better than you

then you're the shit

that's how that works unless you break that cycle.

I get outplayed by an irelia, i go "Oh shit gj dude" or "haha nice one XD"

if they get catty back i go for playful taunts but I never have legitimate feeling about it

Now heres the other half

are you raging at your team? Why? Have you ever been screamed at by your boss and then you do worse? That's what you're doing, Making them play worse.

People get all flustered and less capable when you suddenly blame a bunch of shit on them.

so yeah dont use chat because you're a bad person, you like to be toxic, and not even to your opponents where there is some minor merit (At least you're against them in some capacity) but you're against people who have your back on things, even if just for 20 minutes.

In a random game its you and nine other random people that outside that game have had near zero interaction What someone says to you while in this mystical realm we call a game Applies only to that game once the game is over, nothing translates to the real world Nothing they say has any power over your existence You control the ship

If able laugh laugh alot because everything someone says is just venting and laughing makes everything seem better :D

Best of luck addressing your anger in a positive fashion

I typically just talk. There's usually one person in the game who's nice. Talk to that person, ignore the others, and stay off tilt.
