I'm sorry for my toxicity
If you ever played against me (you probably didn't) I am sorry for being toxic. I thought about my mistakes and realised that I kinda suck. I don't think I am a good killer. From now on, I will not try to win, I will try to get better. I hope I can be a decent player.
I realised that I always saw the game or the survivors at fault, I never thought about me being bad. If I won, it was because I was good but if I lost, it was because survivor perks are too op/the game was unbalanced. I saw the error in my thinking and I will try to correct myself.
So, why am I writing this thread ? Well, if you think that you are never at fault and its always the games fault, please, don't think that way. I thought that way for a long time and the game just didn't feel fun because it was always about winning. It's not. If you try to have fun instead of being competitive, you'll have way more fun, believe me.

True in all statements.
I agree the game is more fun when you care less about winning and more about enjoying yourself.
I was watching a small time streamer who said the chase is the most fun part of being a killer and that they didn't care about going for kills as he didn't judge winning based off of kills but rather how much fun he had chasing people and getting to see their skills at looping.
Idk I agree with you that people consider themselves perfect with all else being at falt

About 6 months after I started playing the game I realized the frustration was mostly to being outplayed and I forced myself to begin complimenting a survivor on their plays if they "got" me.
"nice flash saves Claudette"
"Nice deadhard Jake"
then I pl;ayed more, got better and hardly ever get deadharded, try complimenting other players even though you got outplayed and your brain will change the negative from a positive. Worked for me.

Very true.
Often I feel sympathy for survivors having a hard time and will often ignore them or purposely go for someone else. If I find that someone's on death hook before anyone else then I'll just slug and hope he gets saved to prolong his time in game.
And yes I deeply agree that compliments and positive thinking towards being outplayed or countered in smart ways can make you feel better about what's been done.
If I get DS'd and he runs out of the exit gate then I just say gg nice DS.

play how you want, you're not harming anyone if you're playing toxic or like a douche. The only mistake you made was thinking that a killer win was you're merit, while it's always survivors being inefficient.

it also counters the "DSed u ez game" once you compliment them the insults don't matter you're the better person.

Being a good sport makes other people feel bad for being toxic at all or thinking they were "so much better haha ez game baby trash killer"
(I've received this message before)

The best thing you'll hopefully notice in your statement is by acknowledging your weaknesses, you have actually empowered yourself.
By being toxic to others, you give then the power. You make them the reason for the losses, and because it's them you have inadvertedly made yourself believe there is nothing you can do to get better results - it's solely down to those who beat you.
By accepting your flaws, you have now acknowledged that you can get better results through self-improvement. Now you can focus on being a better killer because no longer do you give yourself the impression that others are solely responsible for your misfortune.
It's a really brave thing to be honest about and you should be rightfully applauded! It's why I always say any killer is a top-tier killer; it doesn't matter to me whether that is correct or not, but it makes me want to get better to prove this to myself.
Seriously, kudos op! I hope you start slaughtering those survivors soon enough.

Good luck man the only way up here is improvement. Learn those mind games, advance the perks that improve the game for you, avoid the weak pointless ones, and dodge the win more perks. Just remember that the stronger the killer you main it will eventually dull your senses.
Have a great experience.

Yeah i usually know where i f'd up. Happens to the best of us. When you stop blaming the game and recognize where you messed up you can start learning from your mistakes.

It's a mentality that comes from PVE gamers, they miss a platform jump or something or get in a bullet-hell situation and cannot dodge, so "damn game, not fair"
However, in PVP you either git gud or keep getting outplayed, cant blame the other guy, the only thing that fixes that feeling is beating them fair and square. The only way you get better in this game is going vs people better than you. If you keep playing rank 20s youll never be trained for what awaits you in red ranks.

Reality is no matter what you do people will be toxic... but... choosing not to reciprocate that toxicity is what takes true character. In turn, you play fair and try to have fun and folks are still toxic they are the only ones that really look sad. And maybe, just maybe, if it happens enough, they'll start to reflect on themselves.

See, I don't feel like this turn is the norm in most gaming spheres, and it's a crying shame.
I dunno, I feel like I see the opposite happen where people who were never toxic and never seemed to care turn toxic over time.
I'm glad you're getting a better outlook, though, and I hope it sticks! <3
