Hello everyone back here with another blog!
Long time ago i posted a blog about me losing and thanks for all the replies but
it came back
I was number 1 in my division for 1 week i was playing solid until
i just broke down...
i made mistakes i shouldnt be doing and just broke down
this was so surprising I am not rank 22 with 14 losses today

I just.... how?
I was so close to diamond i was so close to grasping that league
This monday was the ladder for s7 my biggest worry is that has my chance been ruined?

Sorry to hear that, but don't let a losing streak get to you. Don't focus on the losses, look ahead to your future wins.

here's my advice...ranks, divisions are meaningless wins and losses are too (though that gold star is really nice to have/want lol) the more you view them as important the worse you will take your losses and the slower you will improve since your emphasis will be on lost points rather than looking for and correcting mistakes

i sadly get caught up in that trap occasionally so my best practice is done with practice partners since my mind is absolutely free of the win/loss must win or else mentality
also, don't worry about your division just play more games and eventually you will be promoted and get that achievement

Hey dude. Goal setting is good. Methodology is better. All losses are learning experiences. If you can laugh at the beauty of your losses, you'll be so much stronger in the long run. SC2 is about pleasure. And I really do think for a lot of people, SC2 is about meaning. Accept the pain of today. And accept the part of you that still wants to leap back into battle. Never give up on your love!

Losing streaks are crippling to me if I continue playing, I get so mad you wouldn't believe (I don't break stuff, I just get pissed off so hard). Just lay off 1v1 a little, play with some randoms in teamies or play non-1v1 custom games. That's what I do anyway.

I usually get huge winning streaks after losing streaks. Don't worry, it always come backs to 50% winratio.
