[0:05] broken [ __ ] character there you're [0:09] just a [ __ ] scrub look that was me of [0:15] my lowest point I'm not proud of it but [0:17] we've all been there you're playing a [0:19] game and you start to feel like you're [0:21] losing control maybe it kicks off [0:23] because of a mistake a teammate makes or [0:28] maybe it's something someone says to you [0:32] or maybe the game is just trash because [0:36] you know it's impossible you're the [0:38] problem right but it doesn't matter [0:44] you're free falling towards rage and [0:46] you're probably going to lose [0:48] there's simply no hope for you or is [0:52] there I'm Miles Hackett a recovering [0:55] rageaholic and today with the help of [0:57] two highly qualified professionals I'm [1:00] going to show you how to just say no to [1:02] till Tilt is the scourge of competitors [1:06] everywhere and it affects everyone from [1:09] the hopeless bottom dwellers of bronze [1:11] tier all the way up to the apex [1:13] predators of the eSports world no one is [1:16] immune to frustration most people think [1:20] that tilt originates in poker but it can [1:22] be traced even further back to pinball [1:24] prior to 1947 the earliest pinball [1:27] machines didn't have flippers so players [1:29] had to physically tilt them in order to [1:31] direct the ball but over time with the [1:33] obsession of setting a new high score [1:35] people took tilting too far and it took [1:38] a toll on the machines to extend their [1:40] lifespans manufacturers introduced [1:43] flippers and then eventually slammed [1:45] tilt switch mechanisms that would end [1:47] the game if players got a little too [1:49] carried away as pen heads moved away [1:51] from tilting to nudging techniques tilt [1:54] became slang for playing poorly or [1:56] becoming so angry that you trigger the [1:58] machines game-ending mechanism [2:04] eventually help made its way from the [2:07] seedy bars and arcades of the 70s to [2:09] high-stakes poker tables where it took [2:12] on the meaning we associate it with [2:13] today in poker tilt describes somebody [2:16] who's become emotionally affected by [2:18] losing money which typically leads to [2:20] extremely aggressive play and ends in [2:22] spectacular bouts of rage she's handling [2:32] it with some brace she'll take home over [2:34] ninety one thousand dollars for her [2:36] third place according to cognitive [2:49] psychologists and poker tilt expert and [2:52] legend ranked hearthstone player dr. you [2:54] see Paulo Marquis Hilton poker always [2:57] starts with a significant monetary loss [2:59] it makes you want to enter the box pop [3:02] more often because you feel but the [3:04] quicker you get back what was what you [3:06] believe was yours the better it would be [3:08] for you you have the urge to get back [3:10] what you believe is yours in the name of [3:13] justice and that means you need to enter [3:15] more pots need to play more aggressively [3:17] while it's difficult to pinpoint exactly [3:19] when tilt meet its way from poker to [3:21] gaming if you consider the shared [3:23] competitive nature of the two it's not [3:25] hard to see how it happened and with the [3:27] rise in popularity of online ranked [3:29] matchmaking systems in the early 2000s a [3:32] currency has emerged that has become [3:33] more important to gamers than money MMR [3:36] I lost a hundred and fifty points of Evo [3:39] I took all of the teams a low loss and [3:42] put it on my shoulders think about it [3:45] what do you do when you see that number [3:47] drop that's right you get back in the [3:49] [ __ ] cube this primal drive to [3:53] reclaim what we feel has been wrongly [3:55] taken from us can be tied back to our [3:57] earliest evolutionary instinct when [3:59] you're cavemen ancestors had something [4:01] taken away from them their natural [4:03] reaction was to rage and get it [4:06] otherwise they wouldn't survive Paula [4:08] Mackey believes that when you're in full [4:10] control of a situation you shouldn't [4:11] necessarily tell them but losing when [4:13] you feel like you shouldn't that can be [4:15] what pushes you over the edge this would [4:17] be very difficult you just have like any [4:19] time to work with the bomb press could [4:20] take five seconds alone he's gonna go [4:22] for it behind the fountain Carragher [4:23] just gonna charge him down is it miss [4:25] quite a few pistol shots Kenny yes II [4:26] wanna kill the round in most competitive [4:34] games tilt can be the greatest barrier [4:36] separating you from success and just as [4:38] there are different causes for tilt [4:40] their varying degrees of it as well most [4:42] of us start off at the standard 90 [4:44] degrees that's when you're not tilted at [4:47] all next is 45 degrees also known as the [4:51] acute tilt this is pretty much the point [4:53] where you've started to become [4:54] destabilized that's followed then by the [4:57] obtuse tilt a state involving acts like [5:00] yelling at your teammates getting [5:02] physical it's a big slam and generally [5:04] playing far below your usual ability [5:12] and finally we have the 180 The Full [5:16] Tilt also known as pure rage oh my god [5:21] you should be aware that there's an AWP [5:24] still oh no what am i doing Lynden [5:40] alcoholic it's only game you have to be [5:43] mad as crazy as some of these examples [5:45] might look just remember that tilting is [5:48] normal and everyone experiences it even [5:50] Paula Mackey admits to being a [5:52] recovering tilter poker poker back in [5:55] 2009 my worst tilting experience was [5:57] probably something like taking a pillow [5:59] yelling into Dennis as hard it's not [6:01] kind of ending up with it actually a [6:03] headache that lasted for a couple of [6:05] days in that I was like theory did I [6:07] give myself a stroke or something and [6:09] and that that was like okay yeah this is [6:11] I need to I need to re-evaluate my [6:14] position here but as damning as going [6:16] full-tilt usually is you can recover [6:19] from it it's actually possible to tilt [6:22] so hard that you can return to a pure [6:24] Zen --until big state look no further [6:27] than the grand final series of the 2018 [6:29] Styx Invitational where evil geniuses [6:32] were up 2-0 and Penta appeared to be [6:34] falling to failure one goes down hey who [6:37] doesn't look sees the mutant across the [6:38] Canadian it's fine to for eg and neck [6:41] Rock still a contestant [6:47] I'm like tilted quiet [6:50] fabien said there is streaming like what [6:52] the [ __ ] we'll be doing we're so [6:53] terrible you do better do you guys wanna [6:55] [ __ ] news I don't want a [ __ ] [6:56] loser cause I'm win now right but it [6:58] kind of throw it out everybody's [6:59] frustrations we kind of yelled at each [7:00] other we've got everything I thought you [7:01] did this you did that [7:02] I said no [ __ ] that thank you whichever [7:04] and then he says the overnight I don't [7:07] want you to lose do you and I think it [7:08] is click like no we don't want to do it [7:12] as unrecoverable as their collapse [7:13] appeared to be Penta sent eg on a full [7:16] tilt of their own pulling off the [7:18] reverse sweet Penghu and Fabien left two [7:22] of the best-known players on that the [7:24] Catholics sufficient Fragger Fabien down [7:25] its Penghu the apse just waited or [7:28] rather the Havanna just waited they'll [7:29] look to push together the diffuser in a [7:31] position where they'll have to see when [7:33] the Habano goes through one will cover [7:34] the doorway [7:38] [Applause] [7:47] failure is an unavoidable obstacle in [7:50] life and eSports you simply cannot be [7:53] perfect [7:53] you'll never win everyone v1 and you [7:55] will make mistakes but learning to deal [7:58] with the tilt these setbacks can bring [8:00] is often the difference between [8:01] achieving glorious victory and suffering [8:04] crushing defeat and today with [8:06] prestigious titles and massive prize [8:08] pools on the line many eSports [8:10] organizations have brought in team [8:12] psychologists perhaps the most obvious [8:14] benefactors of this progressive approach [8:16] our CS goes astrology mat prior to 2017 [8:20] had become known for tripping over the [8:22] last hurdle we and I especially had a [8:24] joking problem can't just keep on saying [8:27] that it's unlucky because it's happened [8:29] so many times after falling short of [8:31] their own expectations at the Boston [8:33] major in 2018 Australis added lars Roble [8:36] to their support staff in order to help [8:39] strengthen the team's mentality and [8:40] let's be honest who would know how to do [8:43] that better than someone with 20 years [8:45] experience in the Danish Special Forces [8:48] and then sometimes people ask me okay I [8:50] mean what's the difference between cons [8:52] dragon and [8:53] we'll work its I mean tribal much faster [8:59] than counter-strike then it isn't true [9:01] so these split decisions that you have [9:04] to make this amount of the decisions the [9:07] time you have to for the decisions are [9:09] different with the amount of [9:11] split-second choices and teamwork that [9:13] csgo demands momentum in a match can [9:16] swing from one round to the next and how [9:18] you respond to these feelings in-game is [9:20] key to determining your results not that [9:23] uncertainty it's not the the frustration [9:27] that is the problem it's what the [9:30] frustration makes you do but doesn't [9:33] make it that is so you gotta accept it [9:37] that it's there so when you get this [9:39] feeling of now I'm losing control now I [9:42] get the feeling of tilting the first [9:45] thing you have to do the first image [9:47] it's all about technique it's a bit to [9:49] register that you are going away from [9:52] your game plan and since Lars and the [9:54] astrologist affe implemented tilt [9:56] management training for the players the [9:58] team's overall performances and [10:00] successes have been nothing short of [10:02] staggering I mean the first time I met a [10:05] stylist and we started this journey we [10:07] went on a poker with our computers and [10:10] we're sitting on an old warship and then [10:12] we started defining the dream what is [10:14] the do what is it will want to achieve [10:15] and then we broke the dream into very [10:18] specific very operational targets that [10:21] we control ourselves we decide how much [10:24] ever we want to put into this focal area [10:27] and that gives you that your the feeling [10:29] of your EIN control to ensure this sense [10:31] of stability and control astrologist [10:34] developed a three step program for [10:35] managing in-game tilt first you need to [10:38] register the feeling of being tilted and [10:40] accepted the second step is then [10:43] releasing it by recognizing that you're [10:45] deviating from your intended game plan [10:47] and finally refocusing getting back into [10:50] what Lars calls the here and now what I [10:52] have seen is that they are much more [10:55] present the bad experiences the bad [10:57] history that they have I mean that's [10:59] been removed also this being able to [11:01] have the cars to make decisions on the [11:04] edge when zip X disappears it's [11:06] clear he's up to no good they know he's [11:07] on b-but where his own gun I think block [11:09] the vision and now civics knows that [11:10] they're working in one above all he's [11:12] the lab it's the slaughter and that work [11:20] has clearly paid dividends as astrology [11:23] themselves from being CS goes notorious [11:26] choke artist to the greatest team to [11:29] ever play the game so the next time you [11:31] feel the same familiar tug of tilt [11:34] pulling you down remember to register it [11:36] release it and then refocus if it worked [11:39] for counter strikes Danish conquerors [11:41] I'm sure it can work for you too I mean [11:45] it worked for me I'm certifiably [11:47] untellable these days doesn't bother me [11:55] at all [11:55] with the amount of split-second distance [12:00] it's like like your bones are made of [12:03] pretzels salty [12:12] Sean pretzel are I know it's like [12:19] everyone that makes smiles jokes [12:20] loose kilometres in Canada so [ __ ] you [12:30] God
