Lose Streaks

How do you overcome them?
I went from Gold 1 70LP to Gold 2 0LP and am highly frustrated right now.
I've taken breaks and even went to sleep (lol) but I just can't seem to have a consistent winning streak again.
Do you have any suggestions?

 

I had the same problem as you. It took 3 days but I overcome it and I'm Gold 1 70 lp atm. Play some normals until you get back on your feet.

 

I actually didn't think about playing normals, I'll try to have some fun in normals to get rolling again.

Thanks for being so helpful

 

How have you performed during these losses? If you're performing sub-par most games that you lose/win, might just be that that's your true elo, and gold1 was just luck. If not, probably just bad luck. Either way, keep at it.

 

Losing streaks suck In the last 24 hours i went from almost being in my promos for plat 2 and dropped all the way to plat 5, after sleeping i woke up then started going on a winning streak. Normally when i go on a losing streak its either because i'm tired or i'm not getting my preferred role.

 

Loosing streaks are based on your performance 70-80% of the time, the way I look at it is that every game I play, win or lose, I get more advanced with my mechanics, decision making, farm, everything! Don't think of loosing as a bad thing. League of Legends is most likely going nowhere so you don't have to rush yourself to Platinum or Diamond. Just keep playing to get better!

 

I normally have a debate with my friend about maths.

Either that or play normals.

Even wingsxofxdeath has said that being tired won't improve your performance, so you sleeping is a good idea.

It's just the luck of the draw. 8)

 

The worst part of losing streaks is it kills your MMR.

Been there.

 

I perform pretty well, I rarely go negative and I try to carry.
I think my problem is more of my attitude. I wanna try to bring a more positive attitude in game rather than getting irritated.
I've been winning again by the way

 

Breaks are bad, play normals, play to get better rather than thinking you are the best and you dont deserve to be in that elo, you are in the place where you belong if you aren't improving no reason to get up in ranks, so try to play to improve (every game focus on beating cs from previous or having less deaths etc..)

 

Whenever I hit a streak of losses, I check myself first. If I can honestly still say I'm playing my best, I just keep playing if I'm still having fun, and the wins come back before too long. If you don't think you're playing your best because you're frustrated, just take a short break to do something relaxing and try again later.

 

Exactly what LoLsmurfin said^

When I used to lose 3 or more games, ranked or normals, I would go on huuuge tilt and get into the mindset of "no way I'll keep losing, I'll grind it out. surely I'll win this game." This is a dangerous mindset because you are no longer playing your A game and if you ever make a mistake in a tilt game, you feel extra frustrated which snowballs to even more losses.

I've found that if I seem to be starting a losing streak. I'll take a break for the rest of the day

 

Normal games and ranked games have different MMR systems, so it might seem to be too easy in normals. And its clear that while playing against higher MMR opponents you will gain more experience than playing against lower MMR opponents.

So it leads to a solution of rest, mental preparation and improvement by specatating higher elo players.

Lately I have discovered this site http://www.op.gg/ through which you can check out the player stats, current game stats, as well there is a REPLAY option, that will let you download a file, that you open and you can spectate a game offline. So just look up higher elo korean players and check out whats going on in their world!

Hope that helps, good luck!
