Picture says it all.

Time and time again of getting the worst possible maps, worst possible matchups etc.

I mean I've had tens of insane win streaks, and equally many insane loss streaks, but do they have to add insult to injury by just constantly throwing horrible maps/matchups in your face? So densely packed it makes me sick.

I didn't even wanna play those last 5-6 games, I just didn't wanna end on a loss =(

I just wanna uninstall SC2 right now, lol.

/supercuddlehug!

I get that feeling. But I play customs so at least i'm not losing points. p_q That's what mine looks like too.
But I'm only bronze.
xD

I was gonna say, when I get home, we can play against each other, but if you live in Sweden.. xD I am sorry I can't help you end your losing streak! XD

This happens to a lot of people. Are you back down to 50-50? Because that's what BNET wants you to be.

My God that's a brutal streak. I think I honestly would have stopped playing or at least taken a long break after the first 5. Just to clear your head and such.

gl though, you'll bounce back.

That's a tough streak, but i don't think you can put all the blame on blizzard here. Shakura's + Metalopolis and Scrap isn't nearly as bad as it could have been. Sounds harsh, but people have been through worse.

just do a quick cheese/all-in for an easy win, to get you back on your feet. GL

I see 4 different maps, including the 2 most balanced ones. I think you just are having a period of intense sucking. Blog less, practice more.

Damn that's a rough gig for sure. But don't worry as somebody mentioned above are you back to 50%? I recently was about 25 wins ahead of my losses and then lost like, 15 games over a day and a bit, put me right back where I belong, lol

(

Good for practice/replay analysis though.

Protoss... have... bad maps? Try playing 3100 Terrans close positions meta as zerg while they're tank pushing you through the middle and still winning after losing you're nat. Don't blame Bnet bro..

dude... thats just about every map in the game..

Why dont you learn how to WIN instead of complaining about maps as the reason you lost?? Chances are, the maps had nothing to do with your losses AT ALL..

watch replays, see what you did wrong, ACCEPT your mistakes as your mistakes.. Stop blaming the maps!

Well if you're a Terran who favours one-base play, those maps are among the very worst.

And come on, out of 10 games played getting 4 on Shakuras and 3 on Scrap doesn't seem off to anyone? I don't veto any maps except Blistering. My theory is Bnet knows my worst maps and just wants to fuck with me.

And I was about 50 games ahead in wins than losses. Now it's considerably less.

So you're losing because you're finally getting to the point where you can't just all-in every game and get easy wins?

You can't blame a map because you aren't willing to change your ways to play better on them.

50 Games ahead is a fair amount - I know a lot of pro's are more naturally but like I said, once I started getting 10+, I noticed better players I was playing against, but still winning.

After 20 or so, I versed just about all favored, haha. This is Gold level on SEA. Most of my opponents were Platinum (high)

Does it not work so that bnet 2.0 sets you up against your weak maps and matchups on purpose ?

If you get Steppes of War, you say it's a terrible map.

If you get Shakuras, you say it's a terrible map.

Unless I'm mistaken, you aren't a Zerg player. You really don't have much to complain about as far as the map pool goes.

mine looks the same, except for a win or two sprinkled in. I've strayed too far up from 50-50 and now blizzard's pulling me by the scruff of my neck back down. plus I've been trying for next week's daily, which I have now given up on.

Dance.

Definetly know how this shit goes. Just go watch a stream, especially ones where the streamer gives his thoughts and explains the decisions he makes to remotivate you. I did that with VODd coaching sessions and had a long winning streak
