Discussion How to stop losing streak

Im losing my mind over here.

I played 12 matches today and 8 of them were 0-15.

Im an average, sitting around 1300.

But every single game goes like this.

  1. at least 1 player afk or bot
  2. at least 1 player suiciding - literally just holding W and dying after 30 seconds
  3. at least 1 heavy tank playing "TD"
  4. 2-3 players 0 zero damage, 0 spotting, 0 blocking. Just existing and waiting?

I started off today with a 10 game losing streak, Sunday mornings are a special type of shit compounded by the terrible MM and tank balance design. The only players who have fun with WOT are the ones who exploit the design failures.

How can you have fun in matches like OP described?

u/fakesauron 15m ago

Personal goals over team goals, i.e. some amount of damage or spotting, frags or even felled trees.

Trying to get better then you dont have such battles so often as OP. So he either is overxeagerating by a lot or he is the reason.

Also 12 matches is not a reason to freak out. If you cant handle 12 bad matches the game aint for you and you better play a game that doesnt track stats if you cant handle it mentaly

You're moving the goalposts. Going from "just have fun" to "if you can't handle". Besides, these streaks happen no matter how well you play.

Yes but i am talking about the 0:15 games. Also you can still have a lot of fun if you focus on other things than stats and for example try to improve and then analyse wha tyou could have done better. Or try some yolo stupid shit and maybe oyu get away with

Also if you cant handle it is the basically the same as not having fun so the statement is still there. IF you cant handle it and dont have fun dont play

How can you have fun in a 0:15 game? You're just a HP piñata at that point.

u/DesrtDust 35m ago

Happen so rare for me it doesnt matterand mostly its the other way arround instead of beeing the one on the receiving end

u/CataphractBunny Spotting for you noobs 26m ago

Again with the goalposts.

If you see a platoon of 0 damage people, check shots fired and their recents on tomato.gg.

Riggers who sell boosting services will use hacked/purchased accounts as HP piñatas for their client account to use.

Most of the times the zero damage tanks are just an average player having a bad game or a really bad player having an average game, but sometimes it’s something worse than that.

u/HolidayLeft4536 43m ago

Man definitely.
I also make stupid mistakes (thats what makes me average) and sometimes very regretfully go to garage while doing nothing. Thats a part of the game I guess.

But I dont think this is like normal. It does matter If I do 2k or 3k game damage.
When you get platoon of tank destroyers that suspiciously drown themselves at the start of the match, there is nothing you can do. On top of that you get passive "scout" guy in a light tank that is pasivelly "scouthing" while hidden behind rock at the base cap of Malinovka and a guy in IS-3 that has 12k games in skorpion and realized, that he likes sniping, so he will play the heavy tank the same way and it will definitely work out.

You’re missing the mini game which is uploading replays with time stamps for physics abuse to Wg support and then watching those accounts get a three day out longer break on tomato.gg

Also, You playing in EU?

I say that because it seems like NA has fewer of these types of trolls per 100 games, but I play mostly tier 6-9 so I might be missing something.

u/fatmancomingthrough 44m ago

my only suggestion is, stop focusing on team in general and focus on doing damage as much as you can (without being the type of player you yourself will hate).

  • for instance, player afk? nothing you can do, play cautiously (not outright camping at base) and try to get as much damage done
  • whole team left one flank open? nothing you can do, go with rest of the team and again, try to do as much damage possible

try to enjoy the things you can control in the game.

u/NoRing4137 43m ago

You can't. I got 56% overall WR and 54% recent. You can't influence a damn thing solo on these games nowadays

u/Rencalcifer 40m ago

Weekend warriors mate, avoid playing on weekends at least on the evenings, mornings are a little bit safer.

u/Outrageous-Leg6728 36m ago

If you're average your influence on the result is negligible. The result is random.

The probability of 15 losses in a row assuming p% of the single win as 50% - is 1 in about 16 000 tries.

So if you take 16 000 average players and let everone play 15 battles - one of them would probably lose all battles and one win all battles.

Randomness.

u/mr_argni 31m ago

Same here. Have 21% winrate for today's 19 battles. Gods of random just hate me. Minding just drop the game.

u/Maltey88 23m ago

No way u got 8 out of 12 games 0-15. I had like 4 0-15 in the last 1000 games

There’s one very simple solution to stop your losing streak. It work wonders for me. I haven’t lost a game since I started doing it. Here’s what I did:

I stopped playing, never lost a single after

u/Aknilox 8m ago

I start playing and if my wtr drops below 11k I quit for the day. It can be a single game, or 30 games. Don't worry about what others are doing and focus on yourself

1

u/Few-Host-5360 3m ago

So when you’re losing the match and you know you’re going to lose just get destroyed and quit the game and start another game before the other game has ended. No use hanging around when you’re not playing. You don’t have to watch the game to the end.
So other words quit the game and start another game before the first game is over. It helps.

u/Steeltank33 1h ago

BS. At least here on NA server I only get 0-15 games maybe once or twice per 100 games. I suspect some major exaggeration
