Dealing with crushing defeats despite valiant effort

dance210: It can be very discouraging to have an amazing game that ends in a loss or a draw.   Most of the time for me, it's more important how I did than how the battle ended. I've had some amazing games that were a loss and I felt great after it was over. I've also had some games that we won where I did absolutely nothing - I generally find those games more discouraging.    My best advice after the battle is over is to evaluate how you did. If you had an awesome game that you didn't win, try to shake it off. You can't always carry your team to victory, but you can be proud of the work you put in. Good luck!
