What i do against a MMM ball is to either do a 3 gate robo and wait for the terran to walk up my ramp and forcefield off half his army and repeat, or i get fast collosus. Ive been trying to use void rays in my PvT's but i dont know how to use them to there fullest potential.

i have days where all i do pretty much is lose. usually they follow days where i win a lot, just as a reality check i guess.

Yep, i'm really streaky

I'll go on 10-0 runs and then go 0-10. Literally that divided. Its pretty fucking frustrating.

i got three 6 games losing streak in 2 days, i wasnt too happy about it. Though ofc it meant i could have huge winning streaks as well as my rating dropped, so once it was like 6 loss followed up by 8 wins.
3-4 days ago i was at ~730 which meant top 100 / ladder, 2 days later i was at 620 o.O i hope today i ll get myself over 800 finally

I have horrible streaks as well. The thing that helps me is that I ended up with two cd keys so I have an account that I switch to when I'm losing and just mass games until I feel like the streak is over.

I find that being tired/exhausted is what's leading to losing streaks most often for me, but occasionally they do happen for no apparent reason at all.

I've learned to relax, take a break and come back to the game later, that usually fixes it.

Went from 390 to 164 rating in Diamond (when the world top was at 550 rating).
I went nuts after losing so many games.
But then I learned not to rage when I lose. A loss is a lesson learned whether it's by proxy cheese or anything else and you got to be critic on yourself.
Now I'm at 560 rating though (still in Diamond

)

Went from top 25 in my diamond league to 74th from inactivity :/ Fml

Just as bad as a losing streak imo

I always have losing streaks after Ive had a winning streak. I win 4 games in a row then I'll lose 4 games in a row. Lamers.

6 in a row was my longest losing streak. I know I should stop after 2-3 losses in a row so I can calm down and get my thoughts back together. Playing when you're angry never helps.

I had 2 small losing streaks yesterday as well (4 losses in a row then win then 3losses) but even with all the losses bnet promoted me diamond, that helped because now i get matched vs mid level diamond players and no longer against top10 diamond players (something is wrong with the AMM) and i started going with a normal winrate (50-66%)again.

I've been playing random so its really easy for me to go on winning and losing streaks based on the race matchups i RNG. If I get cheesed in my off-races I pretty much just lose =(.

No, but I almost cried when I seen a 700 point Protoss with only 2-gate proxies in his match-history.

I feel like i lose every game vs protoss nowadays, im a terran, it's just so sad, losing to the 3gate robo every single game. no idea what BO i should use

just go 3gate robo and win :S if they go 3rax just chill in your base and get colossi, or scout that they are teching, make more units and push

9 game losing streak... the funny think i was like up against 6-7 terrans in which tvt is my worse matchup.

I blame friday 13th for the sudden spikes in terran.

Nice to see I'm not alone. On last Monday it was my worst SC2 day so far. Until there i was an 650 pt Diamond player with more than 60 % winratio.

On this day i lost game after game and i couldnt stop playing. I just could not believe this. Overall i lost about 20 games (2 wins in between or so) and I wend from Top 10 to rank 80. Ok in the last twoe games i just did some nukerushes or massnukes because i thought i loose anyway.

At least the loosing lasted 2 more days until i left it behind. hopefullyforever.
