Great writeup. i feel the same way that i often lose my "edge". it's by far my biggest and only real weakness when i'm gaming. i either lose my concentration, or feel like i'm not going to win - WAY too much, and losing is the result. i need a way to keep my focus on 100%, and keep myself in the zone, bc when i am, i know i'm untouchable.

Yea i usually get that feeling when am up by 7 frags and the guy starts to come back and is now within 1 frag...... AND NOW HES TIED ME 9 to 9.....

DAM HOW did i let this happen.. hes a great player and i shouldnt have let him come back to tie.. maybe i shouldnt have show boated with that Rocket Jump when i way up by 7 and he fraged me...hmmm...and now i have to respawn with the score tied and i'll possiable get spawn Raped..Ur fear is a realilty when you spawn and there right there..{ Tisk tisk tisk.. Put away those nads they wont do u any good now.. the severs packed and everyones witness'ed ur CHOKE! NOW wait !.... 6th in line to get another turn!= while the guy that beat you loses to someone u know u would have owned..

My game goes to poop when I'm winning a tourney. I don't know why, I can get a few frags in, and for each frag I get, my hands shake a little more LOL!

I guess that's what makes me a noob.

Excellent link.

Relax, go in there and play as if you are just fooling around. Not so much as you are not determined to do your best. But as if nothing really matters besides making smart manuveurs and solid kills. Its one big mind game, either you are going to be weird in the head or he is. Its your job to mess up your opponents head.

For me it's losing track of the enemy, which usually leads to me having to rely more on twitch than intuition. I'd rather have my sight, sound, and location on where you are than the first two...

Oh and lastly, having someone log onto the net during an important moment in a match!

Yea, Just recently, ive noticed my confidence in D3 is low, and a few times ive been up by 6 -or 7 where you would think i suld win, but i let the guy come back and beat me....

also my consistency, 1 minute im destroying a 3 great players in a row, and the next im being smashed by someone not so grreat

inconsistency!!!!

I fear jumping to armor in Tomiko when lag kicks in.
