Do you ever have long losing streaks while playing online?
Today I reached 1600 with my new team for Doubles, I climbed quickly but then I started losing all the time.
I'm not sure if it's because I need to git gud or my team is flawed, but I don't really know what should I do.
How do you deal with losing streaks? How do you stop them?

It happens. As soon as you lose 2 games in a row, you should stop playing for a while and come back later. This is assuming you're not using a team with giant weaknesses or anything like that.

Whenever I lose 2 games in a row, I know I'm having a bad run so I take a break and come back later or the next day instead of trying to compensate for the losses then and there.

don't play on tilt. 2 is generally a good number of losses to stop at, this anon >>23574144 is on the level.

Yeah, I ran into a bad losing streak last week where I lost a ton of matches all in a row, because I kept predicting wrong. It's actually kind of killed my motivation to play competitively for a while.

I stop. It really gets me into some weird mode where I lose everything after, so I stop after 3-4 losses. Take my time to recuperate, look at my team, maybe breed a few things, then start getting back into the swing against passerby/unrated randoms if on showdown. Never jump immediately back into something after a break. Work your way back up and get a feel for battles again. It happens; not everyone can win 100% of the time
