The Barbarian

 * Tilt Types The Barbarian icon.png Barbarians. This outspoken tilt type represents feelings passion and frustration in equal measure. Impulsiveness drives them to confront and challenge all external sources of tilt-- no matter the cost. Crackling with a spontaneous, driven energy, the Barbarian favors those who act first and do the deep breathing exercises later; players who feel the need to do something about it when tilted. Whether flipping a table or commiserating with a friend, negative feelings must be given immediate release.


 * To master the Barbarian spirit within, a healthy outlet for venting goes a long way. It thrives by finding constructive releases for pressure experienced from the game and others.



Strengths= When the moment gets heated, it feels like it's the only moment that matters. Anger is tricky like that. Coping technique: PREMATURE /MUTE ALL. Few things cause tilt like having mistakes pointed out in an obvious and unhelpful way. One coping trick is to /mute all after your first silly death or accidental error. This helps to minimize stress and embarrassment and keeps you from seeing comments that make a frustrating situation worse. Coping technique: LOSE LANE GRACEFULLY. Knowing how to play from behind - sometimes really behind - is one of the most underrated skills in the game. Instead of giving up or trying to force the issue, learn the art of defensive play. If done well, this calculated adjustment may even cause your opponent to tilt worse than you. Coping technique: THE 40/40/20 RULE. The 40/40/20 rule is the idea that, generally speaking, we're going to lose 40% of our games no matter what, win 40% no matter what, with the other 20% being directly under our control. It might sound fatalistic, but accepting that we have no control over certain wins or losses is liberating and helps to keep the most painful, unfair losses in perspective.

 * The Barbarian Spirit has many beneficial aspects that inspire us to compete and defy the odds.
 * This type compels us to fight for what we want, to take big risks and defy the odds. With the right intentions, the urge to engage, debate, and challenge can be powerful and productive.
 * Confidant and motivated, the Barbarian represents a strong sense of self and unwavering conviction. They trust their intuition, relying on their gut to discern right from wrong.
 * Anger and passion can be a double-edged sword, but when harnessed by a Barbarian who's mastered their emotional storms, they provide a clarity of purpose that helps them drive the change they want to see.
 * -|Weaknesses=
 * When fully tilted, the Barbarian Spirit goes to war, compelling us to lash out or play recklessly.
 * "Don't feed the trolls." "Don't fight fire with fire." "Just laugh it off." To Barbarians, it isn't that simple to brush off disrespect. Insults, annoyances, and disappointments are felt deeply and personally.
 * Succumbing to the Barbarian's dark side heralds a shift in focus away from the big picture. Small slights become monsters of frustration that devour your good time.
 * Barbarians can often be their own worst enemies, self-sabotaging and attacking others for vengeance or satisfaction. The urge to lash out may satisfy in the moment, only to lead to tension amongst friends and teammates.
 * -|Tilting Moments=
 * 1)  You've just been murdered under the safety of your own turret. Feeling a rush of blood to the head, you grit your teeth and clench your fist. Wanting to just move on and forget, you see a message from a teammate: "Play safer," they suggest, and now you're tilted to oblivion.
 * 1)  You're behind in CS and the enemy jungler is pitching a tent in your lane. You aren't playing poorly, but you're still behind and each brutal gank makes you more and more tilted. You want to stop the bleeding, but it feels like an impossible waste of time.
 * 1)  Moment: We've all had games where it feels like we can't be stopped, only to see our teammates drag us down. This feels almost unfair, like nothing is within our control and it doesn’t matter how well we play.
 * -|Notable Barbarians=
 * Atilla the Hun: Infamous conqueror and noted Barbarian Atilla the Hun earned the name "scourge of God" after running his tribal armies down the middle of the Roman empire.
 * Thomas Edison: Focused, passionate, and intense, famous inventor Thomas Edison became so tilted by Nikola Tesla that he embarked on a lifelong crusade to destroy him.
 * Michael Jordan: The 2nd greatest basketball player who ever lived had a famously ruthless competitive streak, often sparring with teammates if tilted.

Vowing to “Win the battle or perish," she led a brutal rebellion against the Roman Empire, daring them to 1v1 her from atop a fearsome chariot.
 * Anonymous Player, 2014: "Yeah, I like to flame a lot. I think flaming helps because it is better to unleash my rage in game instead of letting it stack inside me. If you think about it, what is so bad if someone is flaming you in game?"
 * Anonymous Rioter: "Hey, I’m not a Barbarian!" Narrator: they were.
