I posted this on Friday over in the Battlegrounds forums but no one appears to post there:
I don't play Battlegrounds very much, before the last update my rating was ~ 8k. After the most recent update I got up to 8k again, but all of a sudden in the last month or so, I can't play a single game and get better than 8th place.
I'm down to 5.8k rating. I have no idea how this happened. I feel like I'm making max tempo plays all the time just to try to scrape out a 7th, which I can never do.
Do I feel like I'm getting unlucky? Absolutely. If I'm favoured to win a fight by 85% or something I ALWAYS lose it. I never get triples. Sometimes I'll play 6 games in a row and not win or tie a single fight in all 6 of those games. I'm semi-convinced my account is tagged to always run bad.
Anyway. I understand variance. Theres probably some definitely bias in what I'm saying. I would love someone who is good to watch a couple of games and maybe they can help / reset my account's luck.
Thank you.

Note after posting this I had 4 8th's in a row and a 5th with an extremely good Mech build (I got .2% lethaled to come 5th)
Then on the weekend I played 8 games and came 8th every single one. My rating is now at the floor of 5500. Can't go any lower. But I also can't go any higher because I can't finish above 8th. My first two games today were 8th in both. One with Lich King one with Jandice. Playing my 3rd game now with Millhouse.
I did manage to nab a 2nd with Millhouse but in the final battle I had 67% chance to lethal him. He hit the 4% he had and won. Doesn't make me feel much better unfortunately!
