Furthermore, we, the researchers have also gathered data and information on the

realizations or effect of losing a game, and the lessons that ICT gamers learn
after playing League of Legends and/or Defense of the Ancients 2. We thought that
ICT gamers might have learned some lessons based on the game and if so, would it be
convenient enough to be used in real life situations?

We asked some questions on the realizations that they have come up to after losing
a game. Based from the data that we have collected through interview, when gamers
lose a game, the majority is that they'll be likely to hit that "Play Again" button
because they think that they didn't do well and that they should try again in order
to attain higher ranks. They use their "Defeat" as a motivation and challenge
themselves to be better and stronger for the future gameplays. Gamers also tend to
adjust their gameplay based on the experience from previous gameplays through
analyzation, for this reason, they become more knowledgeable and have improved
their performance in playing League of Legends and/or Defense of the Ancients 2. In
addition, after losing a game, some gamers get disappointed and stop, take a rest
and find inspiration or get mad and punch the wall. Reporting teammates, playing
other games, and say "GG, next game" is what others do.

Moreover, we asked the interviewees if they learn something after playing and if it
could be applied in real life. Whereas, most of them agreed that they learn
something after playing such as teamwork and new strategies. In fact, some tend to
apply these in real life for instance, handling temper and cooperation in group
works. Others have stated that they play the game in order to understand the logic
of it and use it as a base in making their own program. Some also study the
graphics and art of the game and apply it in their works. In essence, gamers do
learn something after playing League of Legends and/or Defense of the Ancients 2
and apply it in their own unique ways.
