Hey everybody its me again.
I played about 3 hours of starcraft and these were my stats ( 10 games)
L-L-L-L-L-W-L-L-L-L
1 was due to a farmer
I lost even when i was winning
I did noting cheesy but i am just rusty plain rusty
I want to win
But I am afraid that can;t happen and since the ladder is locked i guess i am going to gold again

I always stop playing when I'm winning, because I'm sometimes afraid of losing, but what I found is, that if you stop playing you're just making yourself lose in the long run, you just gotta keep yourself running, so you don't become rusty.

Keep cranking out games, whether they are customs or ladder. Stop taking losses as failures and start seeing them as lessons. Keep at it man.

It's better to lose than not playing at all. Don't worry about the ladder, eventually you'll go back up again. What you don't want to do is just saying "meh, I lost, w/e" or "I should have won". Check the replay, study it, see what you did wrong, and remember to work on 1 thing at a time.

You shouldn't think too much about winning.
Why? You can't win every game, nobody does. See the loses as a process of becoming a better player. You learn from your mistake so u wont do them again.
You have to be in a mental state that ur gonna crush ur opponet. Don't ever think you suck or are bad, dont let it get to you, avert those horror feelings. It will for sure affect your gameplay. Stay in and deal with it. The next day it might be 9-1 instead.

Knowing how to deal with disappointing results is a very useful skill IRL.

^ This is so very very true. If you can deal with losing streaks in starcraft then you can deal with the disspointments in life and you will be better for it.

I also agree with these statements. I had a lot of days where I would lose 100+ ladder points then gain 100+ ladder points back again. It made me stronger both as a SC2 player and a person.

I don't mind losing; In fact, with this funday monday, I embrace it!
Here's my command center.
Edit: Just embrace it yourself, ladder rank doesn't really matter is my point.

Happens to us all.

For instance last week I was doing amazing on ladder (15-1 on kr ladder one day, 10-4, etc) had those all last week. I knew I was going to hit a losing streak (when you hit a winning streak you get a bad losing streak). This whole week's been opposite for me. Lose, lose, lose win, lose, lose, lose. Very frusterating. Seriously feels like for every win I get 3 losses. I feel your pain
When I think of something else, something will go here
