Experience Climbing From Bronze I to Gold V in S6

So as everyone pretty much experienced when S6 started, I dropped a good tier or so after my placement matches from my Season 5 ranking. I didn't play S6 much during the beginning of S6 because of this, but like always, I found myself back in the game trying to climb after they released dynamic queue. So after the Solo Queue debacle that everyone ranted about and my own experience using Dynamic Queue I have come to the following conclusion:

It is easier to climb than it previously was.

I don't know what the difference is (maybe I "got gud"?) but it used to take me full seasons to even come close to Gold or even Silver I or II. But now, I was able to get into Gold V in the span of 3-4 months. And this is averaging maybe 3-4 games a day, give or take. I will say that playing against premades CAN mean a very difficult time, but it clearly didn't prevent me from getting to Gold.

I just wanted to write my experience out and let people know to stop blaming the system and actually improve your play and focus on a just a few champions to play and get good with that champion to where you have a large influence on the game. Blaming the "system" for preventing your climb can apply in a few instances, but more often than not, where you end up is based almost solely on your play and skill. I am not saying Gold V is the pinnacle of achievement in League, but objectively, once you get gold you are in the top 25% or so of players in the game.

TL;DR - Moved from Bronze I to Gold V in S6 playing solo. Don't blame dynamic queue. Git Gud.
