Don't you know how to gamble? You never stop when you're winning. :D

Atleast that's how I play, after loss streaks I usually play some custom games.

On a loss streak yesterday I went from rank 12 in my division to rank 75

If your just losing because your playing against a good player.. Keep going. Best practice youll get all day..

If your losing because your getting frustrated and playing stupid... Go get some sun.

Play melee / custom games maps.

It relieves all the obnoxious brain stress. Just play some fun, "nobody cares" games like tower defense or bunker wars then you'll be fresh to come stomp again :-)

usually if I lose that many in a row I go to sleep because it generally means I'm too sleepy to keep playing

take a break man, grab a drink, go watch tv, exercise, go hang out with some friends, cook some dinner, anything to keep ur mind off it and come back refreshed when u want to have another crack, makes a world of difference, speaking from experience

I'm actually on a losing streak myself atm. I am 8-17 the past 25 games. I got early rushed a few times, over macro'd a few times, and lost a few really long games where I couldn't pull out the victory. For a time, I went on a 9 game streak and felt VERY confident facing any race. After this losing streak, its almost as I have a mental block and can't seem to break through. I think a practice partner or two would really help out, but for the time, I am just very frustrated. I went from just above 500 (diamond), now to mid 300's. I know the points don't mean much, but its still frustrating to get beat over and over.
