"Bad luck streak"

Tundra Hunter··6 votes·1,776 views

Here we go again. win streak, lose streak. I have played ~200 games in platinum this season, staying around 50% winrate overall. This keeps happening: win streak, lose streak. Not so long ago, I won 12 ranked in a row. I failed promo to plat 3 4 times. Then, recently, I lost 9 out of my last 10 games. Went back to plat 5 0 LP. The one game I won, I was 9% kill participation, I almost did nothing expect get 2 infernal drakes and get first blood.

But the other games, most lanes feels like it's like Silvers versus Diamonds, every single game. laners keep dying 1v1 in lane, get out-cs by a lot, etc. I don't know how to call this... "bad luck streak"?

Anyway, I am waiting for the "good luck streak" now, since the system forces you to be 50% winrate, it will come as usual.

I wish that, instead of "bad luck" and "good luck", the MMR system actually built fair games, so that win or loss actually reflect your play, and so that the game gets enjoyable instead of free win / free loss boring games.

Ty for the advice guys. Just won a game, feels good. However, I got matched with and against Silver :O It feels crazy: 2 days ago I was in promo to plat 3 and matched with and against diamonds, then I get a lose streak, and I get plat 5 0 LP matched with Silver.

MMR drops crazy fast.

Play easier champions and get better at the game. Those streaks mean you are stuck and the ways you think about how to play are wrong. Focus on the basics.

My advice is to stop playing games back to back. Even when I win, I started taking a break because I didn't realize that I was carrying over tilt. Or even before you q up, ask yourself "Am I in the best state of mind to win" and go from there. A clear head is so important

Meanwhile, I keep getting game like this one: I get auto-filled support, and while we are 0/0/0 botlane, team is 0/6/0 at 6 minute in the game. That's right: jungler, mid and top died 6 times in 4 minutes (minions arrive at 1:40)

I stay positive and try hard, but in the team, people want to ff15.

And this is the kind of game I have in streak lately. Honestly, what did I do wrong? Should I have roamed pre-6? Was I supposed to snowball hard pre-6?

Your advices help, I agree that when tilted, you play worth without realising, and it is good to focus on your mistakes, and have a break.

But damn, having this kind of game in a streak, it is just hard to deal with.
