Motivational Speech
Keep your hopes up. When all is lost, don’t give up! Yeah right, I know. Sometimes teams face straight losses. It’s important to recognize the streak and act before the team starts to spiral. It’s important to know why you’re losing, but sometimes it can be hard to recognize. Before you explode on your teammates, try to poke around and see what’s going on. On the flip side, don’t just lay benign and keep trying to push your team without taking the appropriate action.

The First Step - Identify the problem. Problems can range between:
+ Lack of Concentration
+ Tired Players
+ Too Jittery
+ Bad Luck (Hello Hard Counters)
+ Lack of Communication
+ Getting Outplayed

Don’t Despair Though
Losing 100 points in a night is rough and it is a morale breaker in most cases. What should you do to bounce back? The first part is just identifying the problem. The next step is trying to talk it out. If your team isn’t getting into the groove, there’s no use in continuing. It’ll probably just generate more frustration. Take a small break: from an hour to a day. This’ll help at least give you a chance to play some different teams.

Get back into it, focus, and execute. Remember: if you got there once, you can get there again. As the A-Team says, “GET IT DONE.”
