ToT Bad for my Mental Health

I was pretty into this when it first launched. Quickly ranked to master, can beat NPC, got most of the achievements save a few card upgrades.

I've been banging my head against the PvP dailies almost since the start, and I've come to the conclusion I have to stop doing this. I've been within 20 points of Rubidite rank 10 times, now. I think I understand this game, but then I get these losing streaks and there seems to be nothing I can do.

Then when I do get a hand I might be winning, someone concedes. So I still can't get the daily.

It's ruining my mood for the entire day.

I'm only writing this in case someone finds themselves in the same boat. I can't say whether it's RNG, or I'm just not as smart as I think I am (which, actually, I know to be true. I guess I think I'm way smarter than I actually am). My point is this: if you find a GAME ruining your day, stop.

I hope to take my own advice and leave this alone.

To those enjoying it, may the odds be ever in your favor.

    I'm not sure if it helps but I was stuck in Ebony and Quicksilver for what seemed like forever. I wound up finally getting through it by playing in off hours hoping it wasn't as competitive. Luckily I was right (at least at the time) I think it was between 4 and 5 am when I got my Rubexite rank.

    Can you all please do something about the universal lead issue too? Been farming glenumbra blacksmith nodes for the oakensoul ring for like 20 hours now.
