Stuck in bronze

Aduriz·May 14, 2018·1 votes·1,608 views

I have been performing good as an individual but I am not able to climb. Whenever I am on a win streak I get bad teammates and start to loose lp so quickly. I play top mostly. I really want to know what I can do to get out of bronze because I don't enjoy bronze much. I don't see how much more skills a player would need to get out of bronze. I have good itemization and I don't toll or anything. It's always my teammates. I have to carry all the time. I have a poll to help me decide if thinking about loosing lp is worth for now or not. Because I hear everyone say eventually you will climb if you try to improve yourself. Check my op.gg and let me know what to do.

Should I play for climbing or getting better right now?

Play to get better. If you get better, you will climb. That's all you need.

"I have good itemization and I don't toll or anything. It's always my teammates." I have checked like you asked. The preceding is not true and it is clearly not always your teammates. If you accept that is true, you will have taken the first step towards getting better and climbing.

Do you think I can improve on my itemization ? Also I don't troll. Really. Nevrr been reported. I am even honor level 3. It'steammates who troll when it comes to that. I am not telling that I always carry my teammates. I am saying I have loosing streaks because of trolls in my team. I am bad in those games because I tile soooooo much that I want to break my head on the screen. Any tips about what I can do to not tilt and what mind set to have when my team is behind so that I can at least try hard to win.

Also tell me with an example how I can itemize better.

Teemo with Bloodthirsters is not the best. Buy blade of the runed king instead (gives on-hit, atk spd and lifesteal).

Kayle doesnt go infinity edge. Go hurricane, lich bane and deathcap instead.

Titanic hydra on kench? Troll or not?

Your itemization is mostly ok. Just items with more synergy and dont just buy random items.

Also, you die, way too much. Win or lose, you have more than 7-8 deaths each game. Think everytime you die, thats 30+ seconds doing nothing. 8 deaths = 4 minutes in a 30 min game where you are doing nothing. If you want to climb, play better, more efficient and die less. No matter what team-mates you get.

Do you think Tom Brady, Lebron James, Kobe Bryant, Michael Jordan, Messi, C. Ronaldo complains about teammates or do they just go out, play and win?

Edit: You have a kda of 1.5-2.5 at the moment. Increase it to 4-5, at least.

You compare real sports where you can actually perform and carry your team, to the heavy ass team game that is league? That's how I know you're not fit to give advice. Also, you're telling the guy to raise his KDA, when that's not even close to an issue. If he's dying for the right reasons, his KDA doesn't matter.

I dont get your point. You are saying that it is impossible to perform in league and to carry a team?

Also, you're telling the guy to raise his KDA, when that's not even close to an issue.

So dying a lot is not an issue? What is the issue(s) then, why dont you enlighten us.

If he's dying for the right reasons, his KDA doesn't matter.

What if he is dying for the wrong reasons then? So you are telling me, being 10-10 or 10-1 doesnt matter? Its the same thing right? Ok.

Wow that was very helpful. I will forget about my teammates plays and do my best. I would like you to send me a friend request on league so that I can be in touch and see if I am getting better. I built IE on kayle to try some bild that I saw on a website. It said rage blade, nashors, shiv, IE works. And I was wondering if I should try. It didn't work very well. I also wanted to try full crit kayle but dropped the idea after that game.

I only have accounts on EUW and EUNE. So you can either keep in touch here in forums or make an account on EUW or EUNE and let me know.

What rank are you ? And how long did you take to get out of bronze ? Discord: Adurizz #2959

I now feel KDA matters because you stay alive and do something instead of doing nothing whole you are dead. And lol is a real sport :p

That comment was not to accuse you of trolling, it is to say that you don't always have good itemization and it is not your teammates. If you say you don't how much more you should need to improve and are not seeing your mistakes, that is a sign that you need to do more work, work even harder to improve instead. To say it is always your teammates is to say you are playing perfectly and you know you are not

"It'steammates who troll when it comes to that. I am not telling that I always carry my teammates. I am saying I have loosing streaks because of trolls in my team."

Instead of enjoying the process of learning and getting better at the game, getting better at what you choose to do, you are so quick to shift everything to your teammates and call them trolls to blame them for the losses. You're engaging in the Elo Hell bullshit instead when it is impossible for a person to play games and also be stuck in Bronze 4 if they do not actually belong there. You're looking at them at calling what they do trolling when they just make mistakes, while not acknowledging that you have enemies who are "trolling or indistinguishable from such" with their builds, like AS Fortune, while being unaware that you do things that are indistinguishable from trolling like building Banshee's Veil against full AD teams. But you're not trolling, right? So this is not you or your teammates or your opponents trolling, this is just you all being at the level you play at

"I am bad in those games because I tile soooooo much that I want to break my head on the screen." That's not what "tilt" is, that's severe self-control problems. Work on that.

Any tips about what I can do to not tilt and what mind set to have when my team is behind so that I can at least try hard to win. Get your head in the game and focus on what YOU are doing. Because what you've wrote shows that you are focusing on what your teammates are doing and finding faults with them, instead of correcting your own play, possibly to blame them if it's a loss. So put in work to your own game.
