Losing streaks are horrible... how on earth do I break them?

They can be tilting for some people. They can be absolutely horrible for others. You strive, you fight, you try your absolute best, but it just feels like no matter how hard you try, you never seem to get a perfect team to help break your losing streak and you get yet another red bar on your match history.

Then you look at your match history and just see a large bar of red. 4 games, 7 games, 10 games. Nothing seems to work. No matter how hard you play, or what play you make, it never seems to be the right one.

I know this because -I- am going through a losing streak. And every single horrible loss has dropped my ability to play well even more. I'm currently on my 7th loss in a row on Summoner's Rift and it's really breaking me apart. I'm getting angry in games, because of one mistake ether I or a teammate makes and I'm blowing up a lot easier than normal.

So here's a question to the players that have gone through hard level losing streaks. What on earth do you do to break them? And how on earth do you keep yourself from having anymore? I know everyone loses eventually. But when you're losing more than 4 games in a row, there's a problem and I can't seem to find it.

Help. :(

I usually go play some ARAM or the featured gamemode and let off some steam by going ham all the time. Either that or just take a little break. I myself was on a six games losing streak at the bottom of Silver 5 a day or two ago. I played some Ascension, kicked back and guzzled down some tea, did some writing/art. Then I came back and went on a 7 game winning streak and got to Silver 4. Just take a break, because sometimes you're enabling your losses by going into a game pre-tilted. Or maybe fall back to a champion you really enjoy playing in normals? Maybe someone with easier mechanics that allow you to relax.

Out of curiosity what position do you usually play?

Good luck breaking your losing streak! [slayer-jinx-catface]

I had a 6 game losing streak earlier today in ascension, every game I had 50-60 points. Felt bad, man. Finally I broke my losing streak with a 72 point game and called it a night though. Statistically you're going to end up with the bad players on the other team eventually and end your losing streak. If you're tilting, take a break from league until you're in a better mood. Playing while tilted is only going to make you play worse, and probably put you in an even worse mood.
