So I have a question

This is really more like asking for advice but how do you guys deal with a large lose streak in ranked? To put this as simple as possible, I'm currently in Silver III trying to make it, at least, into Gold V. But as of now I've lost my last 5 ranked matches, I'm sitting on 0 Lp, possibly going to get demoted if I go into another ranked game and lose and overall I'm in a state of worry and depression for trying to pick up ranked again. Overall I just feel like I'm permanently in Silver Hell. Every time I try to climb and moving on is withing reach I just get kicked in the fucking dick down onto the ground and then proceed to get back up, hoping that this time will be different only to be met with the same outcome. And before anyone says something like play normals or take a break I've already have tried this. I can play normals whenever and it doesn't really matter in those matches and taking a break doesn't really do much except give me time to get my emotions calmed down before I go back online and get them riled up. Does it have to do something with our teamcomp pre-game? I'm I doing something wrong or is it my teammates? How do you guys deal with this? Anything that could help would be appreciated because at this point I just feel like shit at League.

if youre tilted its not a great idea to play. being stressed or trying to press to not make mistakes or pushing to hard to win could make reckless decision making. which could lead to losses. playing untilted and calm and collected will help so your decision making isnt impaired. also dont play if you feel tired or sluggish cuz react times could be a fraction of a second slower making you lose a trade you may other wise win. now the best thing you can do to improve is the fundamentals, cs, wave control, objectives, rotations, ect. if you learn these and good at all of this then in time you will over come the slump and rise above your current rating. also it seems you are putting to much worth on your rating and elo then improving the game play over all. and due to this value you give rank regarding of not being where you want is causing tilt within its self

Glad you asked! For conciseness's sake, here are the things I find helpful in list form.

  1. Not playing for a couple of days completely helps me unlearn bad habits I pick up from tilting a little bit over time. When I start playing again, my mind is refreshed.

  2. Exercise - cliché as it may seem, there's nothing that can beat sufficient daily exercise. The extra circulation really helps.

  3. In tandem with #3, sunlight. Skin's gotta make some Vitamin D, and eyes need to be opened.

  4. Sufficient sleep. Seriously. This one's probably the most important one.

Good luck!
