I know everybody has those times where you just cant seem to win anything, it's not that your vsing really good people its people you should beat. You lose from your crappy macro or your bad decision making or unit combo, or you just multitask really bad.

So how do you overcome these things??

I just started to make a snack to maybe get me focused again but not sure if its gonna work lol.

so post how you ever overcame these things

Go on BNet and play some ums games or something. It helps in getting relaxed.

Definitely go on bnet and play an offrace until you miss your actual race.
This works 100% of the time and you often learn things in the process.

It doesn't have to be all in one day, you can take the rest of the day off, wake up and then play an offrace etc.

I suck in my breath and take the loss like a man until I start winning again. Either I start losing because Im outskilled or I lose because I'm just mentally exhausted so I just take a break and try again tomorrow

Start spam-macroing heavily, break your keyboard, and wait 2 weeks for a new one to arrive.

I feel that whenever I face losing streaks mainly caused by low performance it's always a good decision to take a break and do some rl things (working out, buying groceries, making coffee, getting something to eat, etc.)

Well, whenever I get on a losing streak, I just keep playing. I'm bound to win one.. right? : )

Or if you are feeling cruel, smurf and make a D- game just to 5 pool.
