I usually dont get worked up over losses, but one day i meet a Bang player that outright trashed me while i was using Ragna. TKing dem J.623Bs and shit you see on those high level japanese games. It went to show just how much i still have to learn.

i had a tager in a block string. i had 30% of health left. was about to finish my reset when he came out with a 720 out of nowhere. i think ib my 2a and as i was flowwing up with 5b he won the match. i stooped playing for a week i think. i went back and changed my block string to 5a 6b. lol i won most matches with that lol. it just made me get better.

Can't say I've ever had a devastating loss. I have good days and bad days but never any one loss so bad it itself puts me off playing, I just take notes, mental or physical, go into training mode or another match, and adjust my game or try something new or different. Losing is as much of a part of the genre as winning, and if someone beats me with enough style then I'm no less happy, because I still got an awesome match. It just wasn't me being awesome and it gives me something to aspire to.

Oh god I have quite a few of these.

One in particular was when I was fighting a Tager player and doing really well. I won the first round, then he took the second. The third round I screwed up TWICE and got 720'd both times. That one still stings.

Then there's Soulcalibur V. Oh my god. I pretty much get steam rolled in this game so I have virtually no confidence in my skill when playing it. But only one match comes to mind as memorable. Playing as Pyrrha Omega, I was shut down by a fucking Xiba player. I could do NOTHING. Every attempt I made was countered and every time I tried to mix it up I was cut off. By third round I had said fuck it and walked away from the TV giving the guy the win.
