Worst Rank To Play In? [Poll]
Curious as to what people think is 'ELO hell' in their opinion.

This is a pretty loaded question because the further ELO you go up, the less players there are that have played at it. You're always going to get a skewed answer
I think any Elo can be the worst, depending on what makes you enjoy the game the most.
Lower Elo will strike you with some of the worst teammates, (higher elo isn't necessarily protected from them either)
but being at a higher elo is more stressful as any mistakes will be punished harder, you just can't play a chill game anymore, and learning new champions is a nightmare.
I'm personnaly not competitive enough, and i don't tolerate ranked stress enough to actually bother with them, but on the other hand i really wish i would muster the courage to climb so getting matched with teammates wouldn't feel like playing russian roulette anymore.
Its silver because of Riots stupidity of putting New lvl 30 accounts in Silver by default.
It means that Bronze 1 players have on average more understanding and know how then Silver 5-4 players.
This means that to get out of Silver you have to deal with always having in reality a B5 900 MMR player on your team but is counted as a 1200-1250 MMR player. Because of this you will have team matchups that are So far from balanced its not funny. Its Luck as to if you have 1-2 of these players or if the enemy team does.
This is why Duo players can get out of silver easier then SoloQ because they have one less change of bad luck to get the B5 player(s).
any of them when you put V at the end, except bronze 5 they the funniest people you will ever see, unless its some twitch streamer who is getting to bronze 5 then climb to diamond
Coming from a Silver 5 player, It is the most toxic elo imo. There are people who think this is finals in Worlds and any mistake people make is met with insults and threats. I also see people who think they are better than they actually are by acting like they have challenger game knowledge and end up feeding their asses off. I actually have to /mute all every ranked game so I don't have to deal with this shit. On the other hand, Gold is the least toxic elo imo. When I did my placements, I was placed in a team full of gold players and they were actually pretty nice to me. One even said I was better than them which made my day.
That's my rant on why I hate silver 5.
Well a lot of people in gold probably don't care much about climbing since the rewards for getting above gold doesn't really matter like I don't really care about my rank as long as I have at least gold and it is nice with no decay while in gold (or below)

Yes, I have been in Silver for about 700 games now. I am hardstuck af and I know a lot of it is my fault, but A LOT of my losses are due to completely unwinnable games. You get your mix of GOLD PLAYERS and BRONZE PLAYERS on different teams. The enemy team has 2 gold and 3 silvers. Riot - "Here you can have this Bronze 3, this Bronze 2, and 2 Silver V players that just finished their Silver promos! Also this late into the season no matter how many fucking games you lose in your placements matches you automatically get silver, so you get people that should play in Bronze 5 in Silver 1 while the other team has mid golds! I got 7/2 Zed right, 2/12/9 Janna, 2/8 Xayah, 3/8 Kayn some other feeding dude, like 4 people together should not have 38 deaths while I only have 2...
Silver is the most cancer ELO in all of league of legends.
Silver is a massive melting pot
silver especially silver1 ugh so close to the skin and border!
Silver. No argument. Its Silver and anyone who argues against this has never been in silver before.
Silver then plat.
The only difference between silver and plat is the player skill
