Losing Streaks

This may or may not get a lot of views on the topic but losing streaks can be incredibly difficult to come back from. I myself have experienced a streak from yesterday continuing on toward tomorrow. The decrease of MMR makes it so you get worse teams further stacking the deck against you. Should or shouldn't Riot implement a mechanic that helps you fight against these streaks much like the free win series? I'd like to hear your thoughts about this.

I don't think Riot should implement a mechanic like this for the sole reason I truly believe you can learn way more from a loss than a win will ever teach you. All though most people tend to take nothing away from a loss but gg my team was noobs! If your going on a super long losing streak odds are you need to take a break and just chill out. Unless of course you got boosted in which case keep on losing. everyone knew you weren't as good as you thought you were and saw this one coming.

what would they implement? if they did it woudl be unfair for the enemy team. Also I've been one two seperate 20+ game losing streaks to be fair >60% of those losses were because I went afk. However I didn't feel the need to implement anything to let me win. Remember worse teams aren't stacking the deck against you because the other team is just as bad
