I feel trash talking has a misperception, per say. Most people, and the typical trash-talker, use obscenities and otherwise to lower the confidence of the opponent, and go after skill level, honest mistakes, and otherwise.

However, the way I feel trash talking should be used is in a way that one should use themself as the primary way to get the other riled up. Trash talking, I feel, means nothing when you throw a couple things at them that can be easily disproven. Always being a man of actions over words, I feel that the proper way to trash talk, is through actions.

Let me explain. You must deceive the opponent through your ACTIONS and thus inflicting some mental doubt. If you just use some 'omg u suck!!' logic, they can easily deny it, and I feel it's easy to just shut them out and focus. However, if you show that you're somehow not delivering 100% to the game, they feel that you're not taking the game seriously, and not competing, and get that nagging mental doubt that they can't compete to you.

With that nagging doubt, a tendency by humans is to complicate things. The primary cause to come out of something like this is trying too hard, and overcomplicating things. By doing this, then, you are ensuring that your opponent is not able to deliver his 100%, for he is wondering about your 100%.

However, do not get me wrong. There is 'talk' in trash talk for a reason. While your actions are the key thing in trash-talking, I feel, you need to get into the other's brain. With meaningless insults concerning skill, I feel you do not do that. You have to perfectly stoke the anger of the opponent, but how do you do it by talking?

The way I choose to trash talk is simple. I act like I'm not trying, and throw a couple words like, "Is that all you got?" and others out there. You have to use, recalibrate, and perfect the words. Vocabulary is key. You have to, believe it or not, eloquently phrase each word. Or at least, that's what I do.

The best way about this trash talking is that they can't respond with words.

What're your thoughts on this way of trash talking?

It should be a balance, You throw a few words in, then do it again.(While getting into his head)

I don't trash talk at all. I think its mean and unnecessary. I don't want my opponent to perform their best because of a few words I said. Also add in if they beat you you will feel stupid

That's exactly what I do. I do these between intervals and often pick the opposition's best player to rile up.

I do it often, but I don't do personal attacks, as I explain.
