Maybe if you're fighting randoms.
You should be skill-matched if you're fighting league.

Misguided statement. The system ranks you so you win 50 percent of the games you play. Unless you are in the top 10-20 you will always be playing tough opponents.
And losing games.

Yesterday was a really bad outwitters day.. I lost 6 games, and I don't count the friendlies I lost too. It's been one day I didn't see a green banner!
I even lost a game against a non-top 200 which has started one month ago, and which of course I started badly..Demotion is coming soon!

i know that feel!
on topic:
i get bad days every now and then but when they end i get really good days.
my guess is that it really isnt bad days but rather stacked losing games.
so what i do when i have "bad days" is i finish them all before i start new ones.
i also notice that when i start bad the rest of my moves in the game is off

Sorry that was just a really bAd outwitters day. I hadn't won a game in about a week and I was starting to feel I'd never get out of gifted. It's going better now.

Don't worry top 200 know the feel. Seeing 5 league games all loses on my finished games...really depresses me :`(
On a side note, back in gifted when I use to play adorables I had a game against feedback. I was attacking, and I accidently moved my mobi to an adjacently enemy solider only to discover he had a scrambler! This was a stroke of luck, I was able teleport a solider to kill his scrambler. First and only time a mistake had saved me the game.

I think we all have those days..... (Maybe with the exception of joelduque, poweewee and Alvendor :-P)
I agree with those who said that often loosing games are stacked up and shit was not happening on the day you realise it but probably on the day before when you thought you are a supergenius
I found my best strategies against bad play/bad outwitter days in your notion are:
1) don't make moves when you are tired early morning or late evening.
2) don't make moves when you are in a hurry.
3) limit the number of games you play simultaneously. I feel I can manage up to around 10 (including friendlies and 2v2) once that number grows my gameplay deteriorates.
4) make sure you have factored in all available information when making the moves (replay!)
5) take your time and think through different strategies even if you think there is just one obvious winning strategy in the beginning.
Unfortunately I do not stick to my own advice all too often. This correlates highly with having a bad outwitters day shortly thereafter...

I, too, never have those days.
