How to Not Stay in Diamond 1

My time in Diamond 1 was short-lived. Six losses in a row sent me back to Diamond 2, where I stayed for a bit, before I was demoted, again, to Diamond 3. Why should you be listening to my tips if I'm getting demoted? Well, you shouldn't.

BUT, I can tell you what I did to get demoted, so you can avoid making the same mistakes

Arrogance
-Remember how I was talking about myself being a top tier diamond 1 player? Well, cockiness killed the cat. No matter how well you are playing or how big of a winning streak you are on, always look to improve, and look for mistakes to improve on every single game.

Tilting
-Often times I would lose 5 games in a row and I'd just keep playing, annoyed and frustrated. This would lead me to go on tilt, and have no motivation to win, causing me to play poorly. When you're on a losing streak or having a bad day, take a break from league. Being mad won't make you play any better. Relax a little!

I'll apply these tips and continue finding new ones, and I'll be back in Diamond 1 before I know it. I've recently downloaded a program that allows me to replay all my games so I can look back and watch for certain things, which will definitely help me (and you) improve.

Good luck on your journey through Summoner's Rift.
