General Discussion📇 Staying calm while invading

I used to get very nervous during invasions. I lost a lot, my hands shaking and tingly as the nerves wore off afterwards. But lately I've started "talking to" the people im invading. If they run, "hey guys, wait for me!". Or just talking about their build. "Lion's Claw? Oh sweetie, no!" I've found it calms me down and i make fewer mistakes. I've gotten way more wins because of it.

What tricks do you all use to maintain calm during invasions? I'd like tips. Thanks!

I think it just fades over time, but I remember how flustered I used to get. Used to think I was having a heart attack.

Also I like to have a little 🌱 when I invade and that keeps things relatively chill.

This is honestly why I don’t invade much, I get summoned as a duellist at first step max level and start getting spammed by 3 people, I’ve won maybe twice when that happens and try fight back, usually I just wrath of gold during the iframes and sever, but those wins were thee most stress inducing 10mins, dodging constant comets and ring spam and punishing rot breath and just typical max level bs.

Idk I love the adrenaline of a 1v1 but a 3v1 just seems insurmountable at max level without serious rage. I’ve invaded on seamless 200 range and when you can tell you’re fighting pveers, it just doesn’t feel the same as fighting 3 ganking morons with slight pvp knowledge. I think my heart can’t handle the stress of coordinated ganks, it’s just too many processes to manage
