On a loss streak? Seriously, get off after 2 lost games.

Listen I know there’s a lot of discussion on EOMM and what not and I’m not all the way there but I was on a disgusting loss streak. From Diamond 3 down to Plat 3 with a game to hitting Gold 1.

I was MISERABLE. Surely this couldn’t be bad luck. I swear I’m not perfect but I’m not THAT bad. I fill, I counter play, I use my ults to counter. I SvPd a few times in my loss streak but nothing crazy. I’d still say I was middle to top of my team on average, but no matter what I did, what role I played, it was stomp after stomp. Not even close games. It was surreal. I was watching vids on how to get better and it was all the same stuff (watch your positioning, save your ult, don’t trickle, know how to play multiple roles, blah blah blah)

Then I started seeing posts on here about EOMM and playing into losses (which is what I was doing tbh - like surely I can’t get a stomp like the last few right, RIGHT?!)

Any ways, I played for 4 days, and followed a rule. If I had 2 back to back losses that was it. No QP, no other mode, just quit and play something else. This sucked because I really wanted to play but tbh stomps was ruining the fun anyways to I tried it.

I went from Plat to Diamond in like 2 play sessions after getting off after 2 losses for 4 days. I wasn’t playing differently, I wasn’t suddenly more skilled, the games were just SO much easier. It was wild. At some point I was like “surely this can’t be another win” and it was. When I finally got to diamond 3 I had a loss and just took a break.

So all this to say, whether it’s EOMM or whatEVER, what do you have to lose? Protect your mental and see if it works for you 🤷‍♂️
