I get some anxiety while playing on ladder, but the difference in monthly rewards for the various ranks is so minor that losing never really bothered me.
As for losing streaks in particular, after a few losses I suggest taking a break and think about the games you just lost. Some things are outside of your control and you shouldn’t let them bring you down.
-You are expected to lose horrible matchups.
-Going 1st or 2nd in a matchup where you needed the other.
-Opponent had the best possible start.
Stuff like this isn’t worth getting frustrated over. If the bulk of your losses are from other things that you possibly had more control over, then take a minute after each game and think about what you could have done differently.
I usualy do that but i seem to have lost my composure
Usualy il reflect where i could have played dfferent i just feel abt angry and frustated ty i hope i can find calmess again it really isnt worth to get upset over things you cant control besides the misplays we ofc do also.
Stop playing that mode. Go do something different. Come back later.
You can be in a pocket meta where you are just getting mega countered.
Thank you guys i think il take a break its better to come to hs in a good state of mind
Lastly do you guys think the meta is changing in the last few days feels that way to me even if it is changing just adapt.
Your frustration has nothing to do with the game, it comes strictly from you and that’s something only a therapist can help.
Best thing you can do is stop taking the game seriously. Nobody cares how many games you lost, and being Legend isn’t anything special.
I am going to say, that’s just what Hearthstone does dude. I have been playing this game a decent amount recently, an Wednesday was just the epitome of terrible-ness.
What happens for me is I start to get really into ranked, because I am close to another rank floor. I was SOOO MANY TIMES floating between 4-3 wins to hit Diamond 5. Over, an over, an over, an over just couldn’t catch a break. I got to just needing 2 wins to hit the floor, I log off for awhile.
Later right? I hype myself up thinking I can win x2 games an hit the next floor level an be proud of myself… Well guess what… I DON’T! lol.
Instead, I am gifted a defeat an it tanks my mood. An then the bad decisions start flooding in. I start talking to myself how trash Warlock is. I go an delete my deck an build up brand new Warlock lists… an I lose again, an again, an again, an again… I went from just needing 2 games for Diamond 5, to prob somewhere to 7-8 now.
It’s stuff like that, that gets me to just yell about the game. Everything is triggering. I mil’d a Hunter for TWELVE CARDS. Because I knew his game plan, an prep’d myself best I could to win. I had 30 health, mil’d him for 12, an next turn I lost to x2 16 attack King Krushes. F the game man.
I build an aggressive Warlock list, an boom right on queue Ranathal Control Priest, into a Blood Deathknight who both had everything. Sh1t like that hammers home you are DONE with the game that day.
What helps me the most after a bad day on Hearthstone is this.
I have zero decks to queue with cause I deleted them. So when I come back, I have to have a clear head, an build a deck I am in the mood to play. An… taking a shower + shaving lol. Just feeling refreshed helps the mood for me.
So I come back Thursday, an build a new deck… You know whats funny about this deck? I built an aggressive Warlock again an am playing x2 copies of Snowflipper Penguin lol. Plus some other janky cards. I go an play in casual to avoid rank an just roll my eyes because my deck won 5 games in a row… a deck with meme cards wins 5 in a row? Mhmm… but it was fun cause I did the daily quests, an other things an avoided ranked.
At Diamond Aerthis, this is what my meta looks like.
MOST COMMON CLASSES
Priest
Deathknight
Hunter
Paladin
Mage
MID CLASSES
Warrior
Druid
Shaman
Demon Hunter
NEVER SEE CLASSES
Warlock
Rogue
I know this post is long, but ehh… gives you something to read if bored. Take care man, an Hearthstone frustrates everyone at some point. You keep acting like experiencing negative emotions is something wrong. I would say it’s wrong to NEVER feel negative emotions. Let’s you know you’re human lol.
I rekon the way i feel is not healthy because when your upset you tend to get angry which is never good also there used to be a time when i learned to accept defeat and tried to learn from my defeats i even let my opponents finish me off and said well played il start by doing that even if thety take long that will be a start to get back to a healthy mindse i had
i feel better already
I’m just thankful this isn’t another deleted thread from you.
I’ve never seen anyone create and delete like you do. Is it some sort of compulsive thing?
Dude Blizzard games are destroying good people. Their matchmaking is poor “skill based” with an asterisk. It sucks man, they sold out to the masses and became unfriendly to people. End rant.
Its really simple to be honest when i feel a topic is not positive i delete because i believe people influence each other even at a sub consciece - it doesnt affect some ppl but it might
I try and spread positvity not negativity hopefully i can be my old self again soon
However i did need help with my losing streak and my mindset i am thankfull for the replies
On a positive note i am very exited about titans i like alot of the new cards
focus on having fun not on trying to win
I remind myself that I don’t have to win to have fun.
I will just go to battlegrounds if I go two runs in duels with 0-3 both times. and if I’ve made the mistake of allowing myself to climb above 6k mmr in bgs and its an apparent slaughterfest there as well I have recently picked up playing in Twist mode. I’ve climbed really high there comparatively (Silver9!) Aside from these in hearthstone options my other 2 go tos for losing streaks is to log into wrath classic and play for a while there. the other is a certain site about videos about corn or labelled by a variable.
lol. To each their own tho.
I only play for the 1000 and 2000 wins archievments and eventually i hit every season legend.
That way i dont care about rank and rewards, because they come anyway.
When Blizzard will stop supporting 4 classes to be OP and will have balance… I will believe in lose streaks… but can’t believe 70% win rate one day, 70% lose on another with the same deck… I believe they want to keep our win rate at 50%… but 50% is not enough for Legendary… they should know that too…
I really stop pushing after D5. The rewards are not worth it and neither is the rank. The other thing I do is not get upset when I lose
To bad RNG or get high rolled. I only take skill
Losses seriously and I am fine with that. I was always getting pissed at people high rolling me or getting lucky. Once I got a grasp on losses I have no control over I really don’t gat as tilted. The better you get you will see alot more losses that are due to RNG or bad card draw. I am ok with a skill loss. Any losses that are out of my control I just put out of my mind.
I was doing ok for abit but i lost to a guy today who just hit my face with weapon rogue he ignore everything on board and just hit me in the face kinda relapsed to gettting upset but im ok now again.
He also said thank you at the end of the game he could have meant it but i was abit tilted by that.
Im stil gona play the game the new expansion looks super fun like i said i used to be calm player im just struggling to find that peace again that i used to have when playing the game.
Same here… I just wanted to reach Legend only once… but until these broken mechanics working in the 3 top classes… seems like impossible to accomplish just because I am a player with some backbones and not playing any of these. But I rather stuck at D5 or stop playing then use any of these easy winner kid classes and builds.
