Rant : Rageaholics

If you’ve played in DXD or TDT or IHL or any league when DotA was the king supreme of AoS style of games you will have without a doubt met your rageaholic. If you’ve played only public games or the lower levels of league via TDA or SyN or XG then you still will have most likely met the rageaholic.

A rare specimen this rageaholic, they are VERY VERY contradictory. They will scrutinize every last little detail of your play and flame you for it, yet when it comes to their own play it is at best mediocre. Most likely the rageaholic is a was-be who is what we call “washed-up”, as per se they were at one point or another able to stand their own ground on a glorious reputation but have since fallen an insurmountable amount. Nevertheless they perceive themselves as the King of Kings, the Mastermind, God’s answer to the game and so on and so forth.

If you manage to kill them beware! They will call you lucky, scrub, noob etc. and blame it on their allies not assisting them or say stupid idiotic stuff like “ONE MORE SECOND AND I WOULD HAVE RAPED YOU PUB” when they had no mana, little health and a bare minimum of DPS. They also will challenge you to a 1v1 after the game if your team wins, saying stupid stuff like YOU GOT CARRIED and MY TEAM IS HORRENDOUSLY PUBLIC when no shit if you’re a carry hero and it’s a team game, you will get carried. Flaming is also imminent, so get your flame shield up ASAP lest you get burned by the insecurity of the rageaholic. If your team loses be aware of the aura the rageaholic emits, his boasting, taunting and flaming of how terrible you are is scientifically noted to cause people to laugh so hard at how childish people are that they actually laugh themselves into a comatose state**.

Last but not least if you manage to fall under the category of friends or acquaintance of said rageaholic and you do the EVER SO slightest thing to make them mad, be ready for beratement, removal of the friends list, flaming, crying of the epic proportion (also known as T_T or QQ) or long-drawn out whispers at how bad you are and why they bother playing with you. Clan quitting is also not out of the question.

IF YOU ARE A RAGEAHOLIC HOW DO YOU QUIT THIS TERRIBLE ADDICTION?

Simple, it’s a fucking game you stupid neanderthal, take a deep breath, let the fucking issue go (most likely that you just lost a game) and move on. Stop being such a fucking drama-queen and you might actually have something people call friends.
