Best losers?

  • Quote

Post by Astaroth »

This is not meant as a dig at sore losers, but rather as an appreciation of good behaviour and sportsmanship. So let's not focus on negativity, but rather celebrate individuals who lead by example.

Who are the best losers amongst known players in the community? Arbitrary criteria: little to no flaming or whining when losing, always or mostly saying GG (it's just like a handshake in tennis, doesn't mean the game has to be particularly great).

list:

- Aizamk
- iamturk
- Soldier
- Samwise
- Miggo
- Kynesie
- poisson
- sheckler
(- Optimus Prime)
(- Mitoe)
- self-nominated: breeze

Not Optimus lol. He's changed for sure but don't forget that he used to drop after every game he lost

I think you shouldn't include lower level players by the way. Sheckler is a very nice guy and he's definitely not a bad loser, but people usually have a smaller ego when they're not top players.

I think Lukas, Soldier and poisson are also nice guys when they lose (I stopped at the #30 elo).

lol ego has nothing to with a game. It is a part of one's personality.

It's more complicated than that. When you're a beginner, you acknowledge the top players as better than you, and you're usually eager to learn. When you become a top player, you develop an ego about the game. Hazza and castete are good examples of that, they weren't as bad losers as they are today when they were captain.

I think you develop ego looking at other players in the game. Tbh they are a lot.

Personally I always prefer to say Gg regardless of whom I'm playing against, win/loss etc. it's like shaking hands. And I think Mitoe is missing in that list, he should defenitely be there as he only blames himself after loss games ^^ I would say Samwise, Kynesie should also be in the list since I have never seen them refusing to say gg even after many awkard games. Poissondu and Turk should defenitely be added too. , some more that I don't remember rn could also be added to there.

Mitoe is very polite and always says gg but complaining about how bad he is when he loses is worse than just saying gg.
Turk is a good loser but he isn't always a good winner haha, he likes to trashtalk sometimes.
