How do you keep yourself from getting angry while playing this game?

Call me try hard or whatever but when I queue for a ranked match I really do try my best...and when I make a mistake I get frustrated, sure, that I can deal with and move on - but when team mates start flaming I just get furious and enraged.

It won't even matter if the game starts turning and we end up winning, that initial rage just ruins the experience entirely. I don't enjoy playing after that. And of course it starts effecting my game play and more often than not I start making more mistakes...its like a snowballing pile of shit and misery to get angry.

How do you all deal with this issue? I can't be the only one that has thought about dota-induced rage. It's seriously ruining my time with this game. I want to play the game and have a satisfying experience - its not even about winning or losing. You can have a great game and still end up losing.

Because of that I am seriously considering just muting everyone in my games at the start. Yeah communication will suck but surely it won't be as bad as what anger can do. I play around 3.2k mmr anyway so its not like games are won and lost based on solid communication. Having chat on is just a source of misery.

is everyone actually watching E3?

I've always wanted to be Tresdin's squire. I always enjoy fantasizing about entering the fountain with her after a long battle and slowly removing her armor, starting at the helmet and making my way down to her boots. The embarrassment I feel doing this in front of other female heroes only adds to the allure of the situation. She sits down on a stool and commands me to kneel down and remove her boots one at a time. "Is that a boner?" Rylai says. Akasha licks her lips, Rylai giggles, and Shendelzare glares at me. I try to cover it up out of embarrassment, but Tresdin kicks my hands away. "You haven't finished yet." I don't understand because I had already removed her armor, but after she gives me a look I realize that she wants me to remove her shoes as well. I take off her shoes and reveal her gorgeous feet, surprisingly soft despite her being a strong warrior, and extremely sweaty. "Lick the sweat off my feet, squire," she commands me. I hesitate for a moment and look over to the other girls. They all start giggling at me and whispering. Then I feel Tresdin's foot forced into my mouth with the other one covering my nose. The smell and taste of her sweaty feet causes my raging boner to grow even more. "Alright, squire, stand up and remove your clothes." Although embarrassed, I take all my clothes off. Suddenly I feel my position swapped with that of Shendelzare. Suddenly I'm lying beneath Akasha and Rylai, who had both taken their boots off, and were pressing their feet against my member. "No," Tresdin said, "He's mine." She runs over and gets on top of me. It's only now that I realize that she's holding Aghanim's Scepter, and I understand that nobody will be able to interfere with us. Her technique gets more and more intense until I am unable to hold back. I cum inside her pussy with the force of a hundred megacreeps. She gets off of me, and as I lay there quivering in pleasure she gets dressed and begins to chuckle. "Only 9 inches? Pathetic."

I tuned in for a minute and had to turn it off since its so fake fucking normies

Just came back from the cinema

Let me tell you about this bullshit that happened to me when I bought popcorn

The bucket is never hot
the hot dog in other hand are, they're fucking burning, once I saw a girl, she bought a hot dog, I knew she was new at that theater because she went straight to take a bite of it, well she bit the hot dog and

Helter swelter!

Just finished watching the vods, what a boring finals

Fucking Liquid just had to fugg :-dDD
Kinda wish Newbee made it now, might have been a better final.

and what

WHAT HAPPENED user I MUST KNOW

What the fuck

Hey e3 bros has the industry finally managed to not be retarded and produce a good game that will let us leave this shithole?

lol

Please get back to me with more. Cheers and god bless.

>What is OverWatch???

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAHAHA
Icefrog could created a better game while being in Coma than the whole AAA industry.

STOP POSTING NONPURE WAIFUS

This is your only warning!

you clearly didn't read the word "good"

bro, just treat it as bantz, that's what I do, it's not serious or anything man

Sorry about that, guys

>CM telling anyone they are not pure
wew

Hmm I think I get it now, you don't watch E3 for the games, you watch it because it's a live train wreck...kinda like Arteezys career LMAO

>seems about right for today

yes pretty much
EAs was shit since everything was announced before

KEEP POSTING MORE IMPURE WAIFUS

It's all in your head, user. Anger is just an emotion, learn to recognize it and control it.

When there's a dumb peruvian on your team or you're playing against a smurfing chinkstack, watch your emotions. Peruvian fed and allchat'd "GG TEAM FEEDING NOOBS REPORT ALL"? Do NOT react.

I repeat: DO NOT REACT. Reacting to whatever shitstain is spewing dumb shit will just tilt you even harder. There is no point, what you say won't contribute in any way. Just continue to focus on the game, don't let something petty throw you off.

If you need to, start the game with everyone muted. Don't react immaturely to someone making a dumb move, remember that everyone makes mistakes and some people are still learning. Not everybody can read your mind, people play in their own way.

Over time you just won't pay attention to what shitstains do or say in MM. You will never be able to play for them and you are not in control of their actions, focus on doing the most you can instead.

Watch people like SingSing or n0tail, they're generally able to make a fun situation out of anything and laugh negative things off.
Don't forget: it's just a game.

alright here's the lewdest one I could think of

why is it always a skeleton?

Is that the asian LD?

british

hlep

all skeletons are lewd they literally walk around naked most of the time

luckily Dota skeletons have the common decency to put on some clothing in battle

What did he mean by this?

MASTERRACE

He meant that his son was born to win and lead

How do you even push vs Bounty+Tinker?

Do you ever accept criticism or apologize for mistakes?

He is a big guy.

>Fly's dad's name is MONI
cant' make this shit up

WHO DID THIS

Also a huge fraud, google his name

FIX ME

didn't he create a fake martial art or something?

t. too lazy to google

for you

Claimed he invented krav maga and that israeli ministry of defense hired him to train their troops.
No one has yet to back his claims because everyone knows its just a ploy to sell his shitty dvds

Enemies below 25% hp are silenced.

Its hard to do that :(

Thanks user, that is great advice

I do actually, although I have found myself getting overly angry at things (in hindsight) in my own life

DELETE THIS

>Based reverse psychologist user keeping the thread alive

Do you think Backdoor protection should be per lane? As in, if a team is strong enough to solo a tier 3 even though your minions are pushing to their tier 3 in that lane, backdoor protection goes down so long as there's a single minion in your base.

Is this a fair mechanic that justly punishes teams without buyback or ends a game that assuredly would end sooner rather than later because this team is strong enough to do so and is then probably much stronger than the other team is?
Or is it annoying and unfun to see a team delete a tower in .3 seconds because they have a desolator clinkz and AC?
