How do you deal with losing?

Pour myself a drink
In all seriousness though, I’m pretty lax when it comes to this game. You should see when I play NHL. I had to stop playing competitively, I got so mad it’s ridiculous. This game doesn’t make me mad at all

I had to stop playing NHL because EA destroyed it

Feel like just regular online play is good but HUT is a dumpster fire. I picked it up after the holidays for discounted price (hadn’t played it in a couple years) and I realized why I quit in the first place. Absolutely horrible.
People here give SDS a hard time but gameplay is better/more realistic and the content isn’t even close

I come on to this forum and complain about comeback logic and how my opponent was taking advantage of animations. Then I talk about how much I know about baseball because I washed out at the college level 20 years ago and how I would win “if this was real baseball.” Then I shut off the phone, kick the leg of my coffee table and angrily cry myself to sleep.
Well played...

I feel personally attacked.

After a tough loss I usually just watch some Pornhub & then I feel better.

Not sure there is a better answer then this!

You could always rub one out.

I avoid losing whenever possible, but memes are great.

These posts suck, stop whining it’s a [censored] video game. Bunch of [censored] snowflakes around here

I'd love to lose a game to anyone at this point, if it's a 9 inning game. I'm 10-10, 7 of those losses are freeze offs to guys that refuse to shut their system down. I have limited time to play with work and family, so I don't sit there like an idiot for 3 hours waiting for a win neither person earned.

A couple of people have mentioned perspective & I recommend keeping that in front of you. You're playing a videogame in a climate controlled home with high speed internet. It could be worse.

My goal this year is to not get as frustrated with it.
Its going to happen. Already happened once on a swinging bunt with bases loaded 1 out in extras (catcher came out to play it and I had no shot at home or to turn 2.......) but thats kind of what baseball is I guess.
I'm hoping with improved pitch control I wont feel that frustration as much. Last year it was always due to pitches just grooving over the plate when I had good releases.

Seethe in rage for about 2 minutes and then just move on

I come to the forums and Poo-Post about dumb stuff that doesn't make me lose like RNG or check-swings to make myself feel better about losing.

There are undeniably RNG elements to this game. If people deny that, they are just lying.

There is RNG for basically every game in existence, this game could not exist without it. I think it would be extremely rare to find anyone who believed such a thing.

Just think of it as baseball. Where the best team loses 60 to 70 times a year. Or 35 to 40 percent of the time. Best teams in baseball lose to the worst teams all the time. They just want to win each series more than an individual game. But since you only play each person 1 game at a time in the show, you just have to move on. If you are truly better you will win more in the long run. It's a marathon in baseball. Not a sprint.

A random number generator is the basic makeup of all video games to work right.
