The RIOT Act

[Vad]

Well. Ok.

For some perspective: I tend to be surprised when people tell me that I'm making their entire game experience negative. Quicker feedback about it might mute the spikes in this 'weemus-rage' cycle (ragey for a week, then there's a blow-up in the RIOT thread and I get pissy but then not quite as bad for awhile, then ragey again sometime after).

Definitely no reason it should just sit for a few days without any callout. Callouts are what fix it.

The biggest blaring annoyance with your cycle is that your frustration trumps everyone else. No matter what. Consciously or not in the heat of the moment you shut off your mind and you can't be wrong. Coming in at a close second is that you even have a cycle to begin with. We all get frustrated and we all make mistakes, but this is what the PvP world is about. At some point you need to realize that losing is going to happen in great quantities. Some of us have had years of PvP experience losing and winning. It all affects us differently. It has a really annoying effect on you and while I may loathe you for it sometimes I was there once albeit 6 or 7 years ago.

LoL compounds the annoyances of PvP because Summoner's Rift restricts what the player, as a person, can do to recover the game. There is a very defined line where recovery and "come backs" will not happen. The fact that said line even exists drives us to work harder to reduce the amount of mistakes we make. Dominion is irrelevant to this discussion however. It is a straight Arathi Basin/Alterac Valley rip so it's mechanic allows for extreme late game come backs if you manage to shut down the enemy team and take all or most of the points. Little to no excuse for frustration there. Just accept the loss and move on.

My suggestion to you Chris is to either train yourself to go down with your team in a game you deem unwinnable or don't play Summoner's Rift. At all.
