Haha it's not meant to be taken too seriously. Marss still competes he is just not as present as before. That's why I only put him in the TN, not in the video. I love him as a player though. Thank you for the comment!
Don't I love reading this!! Thank you man! I'm glad you enjoyed it. It's really common in a lot of communities. I've seen it in the US, and my friend told me it happens a lot in Spain. People don't know how to cope with them losing. I just wanted to do something entretaining, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
ty for this video. back then i wasnt aware for having such tendencies but in retrospect- when playing smash with friends- ive always seemed to lose despite dedicating a couple of hours into the game and make up excuses such as “youre not even good youre just spamming smash attacks.” the ego did not let me realize that it was my shortcomings that lead me to my loss, when i thought of this i needed to correct my mindset. now i think that every loss is a stepping stone of learning and improving and its best for me to utilize losses by learning of what went wrong instead of getting tunnel visioned to success alone.
You are the first person that I see reacting to the video while you were bieng the one acting that one. I applaud you! That's brave and thank you for sharing. It's awesome o see how one can adjust a couple of things and grow so much from it. Again, thank you for watching the video, and your comment!
Not so sure about the retirement thing, but there is a strange sensation i get whenever i play with casuals and they finally take a game off of me. Ive kind of just learned to let them pop off because of course they do deserve their win, and theres no good excuse for me losing to them so making up shit to try to seem cool still does nothing. But then, if they decide to take their w and leave, and Im left alone still wanting to play, that is what bothers me. Im not sure why.
I've definetly been there. If you think about it, that is another defense mechanisms. They are straight up scared of you proving them it was a fluke, that they would lose 19 out 20 times. Thank you for watching the video, and your comment mate!
I've for sure noticed this all over the place, even fans of certain players will proactively defend their fav smasher with excuses. I've noticed it in a scramble situation goes against me mostly due to luck, I'll hyper focus on that, meanwhile the opponent is taking full advantage of winning neutral. Gotta keep your mind on the current moment
Absolutely! If someone has a big following, usually, they share their losses. I have a cool idea for a video talking about that, in the future. Thank you so much for watching the video, and commentating it!
@@trombonegamer14 Smash and Fighting games are part of my soul, But I want my content to cover a bit more! I'll work hard for you to enjoy that as well!
I absolutely agree with you and its interesting this mechanism people apply for one reason or another; at the end of the day what truly matters is not their behavior, but your goal as a fact of your efforts. Keep the good vids Giorgio!
I think at the top level of anything, it's incredibly difficult to maintain consistency. Natural talent only gets you so far. You have to put in the time and effort on top of that, and a million other people are trying their best to outwork you and take your title. Getting to the top is only the beginning, staying on top is the real challenge, and it's an unrealistic feat for most people, especially if their life priorities change.
@geekingproperly1288 no one specifically, I've just met/know a lot of people (even myself to an extent) who USED to be really good at something, then they had to use the time and energy they had been putting into thier thing and use it for something else. Lots of things can do that, finances, relationships, kids, or they just lose interest. Not everyone can be Micheal Jordan.
I have spent a long long time playing competitive melee and a few months ago the idea of retirement popped up in my head along with me getting older. Behind it all was frustration over stagnation, the wish to be seen and supported when I try so hard, especially by my community and friends. I was so frustrated and losing the fun in my game despite being so insanely motivated.. Well, likely even BECAUSE of it. That intense love and motivation, stressed to the breaking point by feeling stuck socially and competitively.. Despite probably having my best years by far. It's still tough though, which is my sensitive state of mind and wavering energy levels. I really hope to do well to match my ambition but also LET myself have a breakthrough. Mentality is weird.
Dude, thank you for the time to comment this. Mentality IS weird, but I think it gets weirder if we don't talk about it. That's actually the point of the video. It's about recognizing these feelings and do better. Talking about it absolutly helps, so I appreciate this one. I'm glad you are having your best years, hope you keep growing!
Thank you!! Love reading these comments. Next video will be up in a couple of days, In the mean time, thank you for your comment, and feedback. I always appreciate it!
Yo I like the video and perspective and I would love to see about ego in competitive videogames because is something really big and has its effects on players and viewers specially in smash
Only the real ones watch until the end of the video! I have a couple of more ideas on cue before that one, but I deffinetly want to talk about it in the future. It's a great topic for discussion. Thank you so much for watching the video and your comment!
Haha I love reading that "damn" as if you were surpised in a good way. Thank you for watching the video, and the comment. More analizis, or video essays like this one will come soon!
@@geekingproperly1288 haha it was a topic I didn't expect to be covered that I've thought a lot about. More competitive smash scene analysis is very interesting
What a proper way to geek ngl lol nah pero en serio me parece muy cool que cubras estos aspectos mentales en los videojuegos y en los fighting games specifically. No había visto que esas críticas a los juegos siendo una mierda pueden ser un mecanismo de defensa. Really insightful bro, keep it up. FGaming Properly con el Giorgio.
Nice video! All those nights of me beating you in smash back in Dallas lead you to create this?
keep it up! Great content!
Dear readers, do NOT be deceived! This guy right here is my son! I taught him how to spell, how to type, and how to play Smash.
@@geekingproperly1288 hahaha the only thing you taught me was how to not get catfished on Tinder
Marss catching a stray from every corner of he internet
Haha it's not meant to be taken too seriously. Marss still competes he is just not as present as before. That's why I only put him in the TN, not in the video. I love him as a player though.
Thank you for the comment!
Awesome stuff! Keep it up!
I'm on it man!
marss will never escape his smash 4 render
I wouldn't want to escape.
Excellent video , it’s the true !
Thank you for watching and the comment! I have a new video coming up soon that you may like!
This might be the best video yet, thanks for addressing this, it happens super often in different communities but no one talks about it

My video right after this one talks about talent vs. hard work. I'm curious, Who are you refering to from this video in particular?
