Are you an online loser?

I always play to win. It's pretty satisfactory when I, or we depending on what game, win by a great margin, or just win after a harrowing battle. But when losing, I don't mind really. It'll be slightly annoying at first, but soon I'll be up and fighting for the next win.
Woah... I've played way too many games online to say "yes" or "no" to this.. In some games I do good, some ok, some bad.. The worst part for me is the decent in skill.. Take Counter Strike. I played and played and played and played, and at my peak I'd say I was a decent player.
Then I sort of stopped playing, and just popped in every now and then.
And now.. I feel bad for myself.. It's now about 3 years since I was on top, then about 2 years ago I really practiced for The Gathering (big LAN in Norway, used to be the biggest in the world) and got up to about where I was.
But now, when I play.. It's so sad.. I fight a guy and die, and I think "Damn.. I would have won a couple of years ago.."
But in general I guess I loose most of the time.. Simply because I play (or rather played) too many games so I never got good at any of them : )

Probably should have said ratio, because that should be 85.4%Fleischer said:You're saying you win .854% of the time?emeraldrafael said:
I'm pretty good at most multiplayer games, except RTS's.
I suck so hard at RTS's online I just don't bother playing them online.
If I genuinely suck at a game online I just won't play it online.
Can't be a sore loser if you don't lose, because you don't play.

Online I would nearly always lose. I'd nearly always get a team of griefers/people with no idea what they're doing. In the case of Halo 2 and 3, I was always getting betrayed for playing as an Elite. In COD my team was too busy sucking to do anything. I was almost always a one man team...

In tf2 I used to be a loser. I can't aim worth shit and some ppl are so fucking amazing with demoman and soldier i don't even know why i tried. Then i started playing medic all my deficiencies mean nothing for this class and I can still help the team. woohoo medic

My philosophy is, "If you aren't able to win, then learn to lose with dignity."
I don't really play that many online games, but I always lose with a smile on my face. If I had fun, why should I care what the outcome is?
It's basically made me the only person that has fun when we play games in PE class.

I've never really been good at online FPS's, I always get average 6-11 kills on C.o.D But around 12-17 Deaths, its just a fine for me =P
On FPS games I tend to have like 14 kills and 4-6 deaths on average (Though on games with unlimited re-spawns such as the COD Domination match type, I am around 20-30 kills and 7-9 deaths), and usually the only reason I ever lose a match is if my team is full of crappy players (Such as playing a match of domination in Black Ops and it's only me and another player trying to actually capture the locations). Though sometimes the other team is just full of better players and I get crushed by noob tubers, killstreaks, and rushers. Though I honestly am not a hardcore FPS gamer and I'm pretty casual when playing, but some people are just...dreadfully awful at FPS games (Running into the room the exact same way 4 times in a row where I can kill them from the same position).
But I find that I'm the best at RTS games or Co-Op games.

Yes! AP Tryn, I've always wanted to try that.Niagro said:When playing games to win (usually League of Legends), I rarely lose, as I play tank/carry to a good standard.
... But...
I rarely do any more, as it removes some of the fun. Roll on AP Tryndamere =D
Would you happen to play on the US servers? We should play a game sometime.
EDIT: Judging from your current country of residence, I'm going to guess not. 'tis a damned shame.
OT: I'm generally pretty good at something the first time I play it, but I hardly ever get better. Usually, after a few friends and me pick up the same game, I kick their ass, but about a week later they'll have outgrown me and proceed to kick mine. 'tis a harsh world.
Sole exception lies with abovementioned League of Legends, I have actually gotten fairly good at that, and am currently the best among my friends.
I am a BOSS at Co-Op games, especially RTS. Playing Borderlands with Mordecai and dishing out more DMG/DPS with my Rare Revolver then anyone else on my team, is ever so satisfying. I also was ADDICTED to DOW 40k for awhile when I still had the game.
