Defeated.
The feels youz gets when you play someone on a 1v1 game and you're both equally good. Both respectable of the game, mechanics, strategies, execution etc and you lose, it doesn't feel bad but a great learning experience that was pretty much 50/50. Mostly on games like Fighting Games/Pokemon/Chess/X-com etc it definitely doesn't feel like a horrible loss but a game well played.
It's not just 1v1. I remember times when I was with my group on Gears 3 and we played other 5 player team, it was tough, everyone working together through support and communition, and when we lost we still felt like we played well.
Completely destroyed is the best learning experience however. I find that when you're completely bent over and spanked by a better, you get extremely pissed off at times and therefore want to improve. You save the reply, talk to friends about how the beat X and work on getting better.
