you stated that you think it is abnormal for a player to experience multiple 7+ bi downswings

This happens to me multiple times in a week, I wouldnt call it rare at all.

It would depend on how many games, obviously, but even with a 56% winrate (which is a flawed way to figure from the start, because you don't really have a fixed percentage chance to win each individual game), the chance of any 7 games in a row being all losses is like a third of a percent, or 1 in 313.

I honestly have no clue how to figure out the likelyhood of having at least one 7 loss streak out of say, 100 games, but I guess I could see that being fairly likely. It doesn't exactly seem like it should be a "common" occurence, though. 100 games is a lot for most people.
