Do you ever feel selfish for winning?

In games like FIFA, yeah I go a little easy if I'm winning by a decent margin to keep things competitive. I don't really play FGs with any friends/family but I'd imagine it'd be the same.

That only extends to friends and family though. You scrubs get bodied mercilessly. I feel like going easy on people who are actually trying to improve is just taking the piss.

I don't really get disappointed when I lose so I don't really think about it like that. Just think of it as you gifting them a learning experience. People should be thankful for free education not sad

I tend to play with people who want me to give it my all, so i've never really experienced this. In my opinion, just do your best and expect the opponent to do the same, if they seem as tho they're new, pick a character you maybe have been working on that you have less experience with and see how that goes. If the game is

A: Ancient as fuck
or
B: In a ranked setting

Body them, who cares?

when i get new players playing MKX with me (especially ones who come from other fighting games) i take much pleasure in showing them exactly what they're going to be in for in mkx xD. Then after that i help em learn a few basic combos. Do i feel guilty for giving em a whoopin? not in the slightest....i think of it as an official MKX initiation ;)

The majority of my friends play mortal kombat. I like my friends alot that's why I fight them without mercy. If they cannot figure out to beat me then they do not deserve to win. Going easy on them is cheating them in my eyes but those are people who know how to play. If my girlfriend wants to play against me I use unbreakable subzero. I teach her about the mechanics of the game and how she can beat unbreakable subzero while we are fighting and I don't light her up of course I just treat her like the smart player she is and she beats me everytime.
