I think resetting is a bad choice. I'm a D level player, and I hate it when better players come to lower levels to get easy wins.

I remember one time when I played this guy who's account was at D. He beat me really easily, which was extremely frustrating, and the next day I looked at his stats. The guy was like 22-1. That really pissed me off, and to be honest, its happened to me several times now.

Half the people will have a higher skill level than their current rank. You just have to live with it.

Sometimes, it can be good to just stop for the night and cut your losses. If you're playing bad, just give yourself some time to start fresh.

my worst slump was 11 loses in a row over 2 days. I don't really remember but I don't think that I reset. Do as everybody else says and take a break for a while.

resetting is free.
just do it and get your mechanics together while laddering back up.

I slumped last week, losing like 18 games out of 20. It was frustrating, but I took a break for two-three days, and then I was able to come back.

So keep going, but make sure you take a break!

And then you became a 43-16 B-


I second that, Mr. Iamnotgosuthosearenotmystats. No one believes you!
Yes.

Don't worry charge, you're already gosu... no need to think of getting a higher rank. Stop thinking of the loses as well. LOL

Edit: Btw, do you guys still consider this a very early season or it's mid season? seems to me the guys that have high skill level has their right rank now.
I don't think I've ever wished my opponent good luck prior to a game. When I play, I play to win. I hope every opponent I ever have is cursed with fucking terrible luck. I hope they're stuck playing underneath a stepladder with a black cat in attendance a

Rage and uninstall Starcraft. Then the next day when you come to your senses and get everything reinstalled you will be able to get out of your slump! ^_^

During Korean hours, practically half the D ranks I run into are much higher. I was on a 9-loss streak at D+ level that had me really demoralized until I checked and found all of them were between C and A-. Not much you can do but use those games as practice :p

We're almost in the same time slot with the koreans that's why practice is so hardcore. I'm still not getting the feel with their Late Mutas as of the moment..

Well duh, what do you expect?
High ranks don't come out of nowhere, they have to rank up just like the rest of us. They just happen to end up in a higher rank.

I was just noting how it seems far more common when I play during Korean hours.
