Intense gaming got you stressed out? Here are some tips to help keep you cool
Us gamers are known for being dedicated and passionate to our games. Sometimes though, getting really into a game can lead to head-scratching frustration. Maybe you’re in the middle of a teamfight and your internet connection suddenly lags. Or you’re on your way to climb the competitive ladder but one of your teammates is being difficult. A lot of factors can come in and get you stressed out. Here are some tips to help keep your cool during your next gaming session.
1. Take a break
Even the best of the best do it to. Even if you’re all set to play all night and grind, you never know what’s coming. In between games or after every hour or two, make sure to take a break. Stand up, stretch, walk around, take deep breaths, drink water. Anything you can do to shake off that tilt and keep you focused. You can even play a different game to take a break from the game you’re playing.
2. Be more understanding
We all have our reasons for gaming. Some are completely dedicated to it, some are more casual players, some go to the game to seek solace from the world. But in any case, don’t be too hard on others who may be more or less competitive than you. Remember, we’re all playing the game to have fun. As Jordan said, “If people hate you, don’t hate them!”
3. Keep a positive mindset and attitude
Always look at the bright side of things. Lost a game? Take it as a lesson for the next one. Laggy internet? Use the downtime to take a break. Take the negatives and turn them into positives.
4. Make friends
We are one community after all. Some unlikely friendships have been made over online games and those friendships often lead to the strongest bonds. Aside from chatting in-game, you can also join your local community gaming events to socialize and make more friends! The more the merrier, as they say!
5. Keep cool with
Gaming sessions can be long and rough. Especially in this Philippine weather, things can get heated and cause head-scratching stress. After hours of playing, remember to stay cool and fresh with Clear Men anti-dandruff shampoo, designed to refresh the scalp and hair for the ultimate cooling sensation.
