Any advice on being burnt out of the game ?

After the retarded dynamic q bullshit last year, I wanted to really achieve something this year... I actually got to diamond 2 this time and then the streak of legit unwinnable games brought me back to d5. I was so fucking angry at the game and teammates, I couldn't play the game after that with enthusiasm anymore. I didn't play ranked for few months now and I still don't feel that spark for the game. That losing streak completely lost my faith in the ranked system and in riot's fucks given about the game. I legit played the same and well every game, but I lost 10 games for every game I won. I also had a 60% winrate in d2 and surprise surprise, guess what it is now. Yeah, 50%. Sorry riot that I don't want to play 2000 games to reach the elo I'm supposed to be in. It's sad for me, because I still like the game, but all of this shit is slowly making me to start hate it.

Start by maybe playing a game per day, obviously this will be a little hard to do as you're not as enthusiastic as before, you the problem here is that you just want to have the feeling of winning again and gaining elo.

Eventually one game per day will leverage out you may win one day then lose the next, but overall you should have a day where you may have won two in a row, and can leave it as that, it's very tedious and will always take resiliency, but overall some of the top players are playing this game nearly 7+ hours a day in the higher brackets and they're still looking for ways to improve.

Overall league is something that comes from a passion overtime some people's passion burns out and fades, which is completely fine, if that's the case then dropping it all is an option but seeing that you're contemplating on returning you still have a little burning fire in you but you just need to find a way to add fuel to that fire, and based on what you wrote it's just the feeling of winning and climbing.
