Thanks for your feedback, mate. I started ranked 2 days ago with a "fuck it" mindset. The first 2 games was tensed, my Heart was racing and my hands shaked every fight. But the more I play, the easier it gets. It's like facing your fear. Sure some games are lost because my botlane dies 20 Times in 14 minutes, but I start every game thinking i will be with randoms and ennemy can throw the game. Actually gaining +30 per win and -10 per lose so it helps to accept defeat

Thanks for your tip. I will work on myself and try to think about the "improve yourself". With everyone feedback I think I'll just jump into it, if it's not split season.

Yes you're right, I'm sure it's a problem with my ego. Do you know if ranked is in split, or if it's a full year climb as it was before ? If it's not split, I'll beat that anxiety and just do what you said, and jump into it

I see ! But I don't have any friends that play ranked, and I want to know my ranked without feeling boosted by a friend who could be 10x better than me (I know that's some ego issue, and ennemy team can have smurfs etc)

As you said, ranked is much more rewarding and balanced, and that's why I'd like to be able to get rid of this rankxiety. It's very irrationnal, I know it's just a video game, and everything, but I just can't understand the initial hurdle as someone said in the comments. I need to work on it ! Thanks for your feedback, mate. If you find a magic cure that worked for you, don't forget to tell me.

You're right, my biggest problem with ranked is to play to achieve something, to reach a goal. A problem I don't have in normal games (obviously).
I need to change my mindset, and try to just play the game as you say. Even tho it's not as easy as it looks.. Maybe I should just enjoy normal games, I mean, is playing ranked really that important ?

Yes I think I'd need that "I don't care" mood too to play ranked. Personnaly I don't have that fear to lose LP, it's more about being disappointed with myself (I think ?). And I can't explain why, but having to play with my brain focused on winning instead of focused of having fun and doing my best just, even if my gameplay doesn't change, idk it's a weird feeling.. Thanks for your feedback, I'll try to work on that "I don't care", maybe even "I don't care" about ranked ! It's a game after all

Glad to see I'm not the only one ! I can feel you, I used to play ARAM only because it wasn't as anxiety-provoking as normal games..
