User blog comment:Commander Marko/Is it possible to avoid a losing streak?/@comment-3450702-20130902175412

I would recommend two things:

1. After each lost game, blow off the steam by some physical activity (take a walk), during which you can look back at the game and try to remember all the crucial moments when your judgement/gameplay wasn't flawless. Use LoLReplay to analyze close lost games (best for learning are close losses). "Every mistake is a lesson." -Wukong

2. Practice in unranked. Honestly, this is pretty logical. Some advice that I personally don't follow but my dad uses it mostly successfully is: after each loss, play the champ in normals till you win; if you don't get him, at least you'll get some experience with something new and increase your game knowledge. Remember how I said every mistake is a lesson? Make normal games those lessons, rehearsals; make ranked games your test, performance.

And most of all, never give up. If you ever catch yourself thinking: "This is impossible, bronzies are gonna drag me down", slap yourself. Whether you believe you can get to gold or not, you're right.
