How do you handle yourself when you get owned in a game?

This thread was inspired by one over in the 343 forums. When you just keep getting killed, you lose, you get beaten by somebody better than you, what do you do? Do you rage, yell into the mic and throw the controller each time you die? Do you send the enemy team an angry message, written out carefully explaining how much you hate them? [b]Do you stop playing and give up, blaming the game for your loss?[/b] [i][b]Or do you accept that you did bad and you got owned, blame yourself, learn from your mistakes, and try again, determined to get better and trying not to repeat your mistakes from the last game?[/b][/i] I'm pretty sure the fact that most players do not do the last example is the reason many competitive games have been reduced to "accessible" piles of casual randomness.

  • More the second, but still not entirely. It's also important to acknowledge what your opponent [i]did right[/i]. Just as important as being aware of your own mistakes is realizing when you get completely outplayed. I play a lot of fighting games, and I couldn't imagine playing them with any other mind set. I'd imagine most ragers wouldn't last more than a week.
