I've been noticing lately that a lot of my deaths stem from me panicking and being unable to react properly to my opponent. I get really nervous and turn what could have been a double kill to me dying in a stupid way. If I could stop getting so nervous/anxious I know that I could improve my gameplay by a lot.
So does anyone have any tips for staying calm and focused?
Besides just practicing so you have a bit of muscle memory to tell you what to do, try listening to neutral music. Nothing that gets the blood flowing, but also nothing that will put you to sleep. It's a bit like how some people fall asleep better when there's background noise, you can focus on the important matters easier if you have something to ignore.
exercise, eat well and get enough sleep
Drink beer when you play.
You will probably still make bad plays, but you won't get nervous or anxious or care about them.
And yes I'm joking. 8)
Plan out what can happen ahead of time.
Can Annie flash ult? I can't see their jungler right now, what would I do if they ganked? Twitch isn't on the mini-map, he must be looking to sneak up on someone (prepares cc).
Easier said than done, but you play much better if you know what the enemy can/ might do.
mute people. when u can't see them type, that eases alot of u feeling the need to type to them.
but u need to learn to stay calm when people are being douches. i suggest. just simple will power. \
when it boils down to it. it's purely will power. just tell ur self no. and then do execute your plan of not raging.
just with any thing. u may want to rob a store, but u dont because tell urself no. many fights are avoid from one person simply walking away. it's that easy.
