New Way To Climb Tiers

How bout it Riot? When I go 16/4/12 and we lose and I am forced to watch my precious LP vanish before my eyes, I can't help but think that there must be a better way to rank me up through the tiers. I'm in B4 right now and I go positive 9/10 games...how is this even allowed in bronze?! Please, work on a new way to have summoners work their way up the Elo because its getting old trying to carry a Carpet V team every game. League is fun and all, but whats the point of trying your hardest if you don't get rewarded for it? I have been in bronze for months with at least 100+ games and yet, IM STILL IN BRONZE 4!! This is getting old...

You say you go positive 9/10 games, but looking at it it's more like a roll of the dice whether you do or not. Running even isn't a good goal anyway, your playstyle is probably far too risky.

I recommend slimming down your champion pool to just a few per role so that you can master them. Read guides and watch high elo players so you can learn the most effective builds, including Runes, Masteries, Summoner Spells and skill order.

Ward more and keep an eye on where the enemy is (and isn't) so you can take objectives that they leave open. Don't engage fights with something that you already know beats you every time. The goal is the Nexus, which you reach through their towers and inhibitors; you don't need to get a huge amount of kills to accomplish that, and trying to can get in the way.

Don't ever blame your team; you're in Bronze 4, you're going to get Bronze 4 teammates. Focus on improving your own play every game instead of on how bad you think they are. The opposing team gets players from the same pool, so they'll tend to be average for that elo too; you have to be the one player in that match better than the average.

Why do you mention your KDA? Carry is about leading and making good calls, not winning your lane.

I went 0-13-4 or something as Heimer the other day, but setting up all three lanes to push was what won the game.

Focus more on objective control and wave management and you will find you climb faster than going 20-0 every game. Whats the point of killing your enemy if you aren't going to push or dragon?

When did you go 16-4-12?
If you have 16 kills and only 4 deaths it's not your team's fault that you lost or are losing it's you own fault dude. You play mostly LB, Kat, Ziggs, Draven champions that yeah they can get kills but do need a team to follow up and in Bronze you don't have a team and you don't have people that know how to follow up, instead you must carry 4 random scrubs that you need to carry plain and simple.

On average you go around 6-8-8 KDA per game in your League Ranked career and 6.7(K) 8.6(D) 8.4(A) 118.5(CS) this year on average so you just need to stop dying yourself and don't say " I get 6 kills and 0 deaths until my teammates feed and and die 8 times because of them" if that's the case you really need to start learning how to get 1 kill and turn it into leads that matter and not just kills to boost up your KDA but instead get objectives.

Do I think the Ranked needs to change - YES mainly the get 100 LP you don't need to play 3-5 more games to get out of that certain division/tier but that's about it.

If you were good at the game you wouldn't have been placed in bronze 4.
