Is jungling the best way to get out of elo hell? If so what am I doing wrong. I can't stand teams like this, I would gank and end up having to do everything because people never go in when I spam to target the enemy, bottom did terrible and I ganked at least 5 times and mid did pretty good cause I had to camp to keep it from being a total loss. How do I get out of elo hell. :(

You can climb with any role.

Although that game is prolly a poor example. Ganking Dario before he goes 25-1 would be a good start.

Looking at your match history. You average many deaths per game. Its a good idea to start looking there.

Also, besides your Yasuo play, your CS is extremely low on average. Working on last hitting will give you a lot of extra gold.

If you want some real help, add me. And be ok with constructive criticism. But most people belong within 3 divisions of where they are. So don't think you are a perfect player that belongs in diamond.

Depends on how much work you want to put in to get better. You can climb with any role, though some climb faster than others. I find that at lower elo brackets, you want to play easy champions that do a lot of damage.

So for example, Amumu and Udyr would be good for low elo. They don't take much practice to be effective with. One of the most easy ways to climb though is to become a master with 2-3 champions and play nothing but them. You'll start to rise on pure mechanical skill alone. Mechanical skill can get you to about high gold low plat, but then you'll need to start improving your decision making skills.

Once you have more losses than wins. The game will keep you where you are and you will never escape.

You can climb in any role.

The truth of ranked is ~30% of the games you play no matter how hard you carry your team is going to lose. However, ~30% of the time you will also win no matter how bad you play. What matter is how you play in the remaining 40% of games.

Right now you have a 56% win ratio in ranked and over your last 20 ranked games you have a 60% win rate so if you continue to play the way you are you will climb out of bronze eventually. However, climbing out of bronze can take hundreds of games if you only have a 55%-60% win rate. If you want to increase your win rate the #1 thing you should work on is your KDA, which primarily means you should try to reduce your deaths per game while maintaining the same kills and assists. If you look at your own ranked stats you will see than the higher your KDA is with a champion the higher your win rate with that champion is. You should focus on getting your KDA to at least 3 on average. If you can do that you will see a huge increase in your win rate.

Good luck and keep improving and you will continue to climb. Don't get discouraged.

  1. Accept that you can only control your own actions.
  2. Accept that you are probably going to lose 50% of your games.
  3. Learn from your loses and identify what you can change about your own playstyle to improve your chances at victory.

You don't have fast enough wave clear as Shaco. Yeah you might have had a lot of kills, but that doesn't mean shit if your team can't push waves. You need to play a champion that can just dominate waves of minions and chop down towers like a lumberjack. Kills come secondary. To get out of elo hell you don't even have to fight in team fights, most games you can just split push your way to victory.

Darius carried much harder than you did so he got the win and deserves to leave bronze before you do. Just play consistently well and focus on pressuring objectives and you'll get out of bronze. Remember you don't need to win every game just 51%+.

To get out pick 2 roles and 3-5 champs that you are good at (i recommend easy champs). Only play these champs as being experienced on a champ>playing the flavor of the month. Record your games and find out what you are doing wrong each game win/loss. (ie maybe you could have denied a wave for free after a successful gank/lane kill, but left to go buy instead or maybe you didn't see the enemy JG bot and use the opportunity to fuck up his top JG while you were top). If you dont know what you are doing wrong show the recordings to a plat+ friend and have them help. Also you get about 1 free division for being anti-toxic. I feel that about 5% of my wins are from preventing allies from tilting and preventing arguments when mistakes are made. Some people have very fragile egos and need compliments and encouragement to not break down.

You wont need to worry about a large champ pool or pics/counter-pics until after gold and some people can even get to challenger on a small pool.

the main reason people are in bronze is that they dont improve themselves. Looking at your teammates mistakes and blaming your team is the best way to not improve.

elo hell isn't real and jungle is honestly one of the easiest roles to climb with. having a good kda means nothing if you aren't securing objectives and warding. objectives are your job as a jungler. play an easy champ that you can tank and dive their carries with. shaco isn't a bad champ but hard to master, and mechanically hard champs are not the way to get out of bronze.

my recommendation is shyvana. that's how i got to silver and how im gonna get to plat this season. she's mechanically easy and very strong right now.

in low elo, nobody wards objectives properly, so you will gets away with soloing dragon and sneaking barons with your top laner. shyv's clear is amazing and you will be able to counter jungle constantly, as if you were playing shaco, really. i also recommend starting red and going for level 2 first blood cheese on their jungler. those kinds of things tilt people in bronze really hard.

i had a game last night where the enemy team was denied so much vision that i secured first blood at 2 mins, 18 kills, 5 dragons, and 2 barons in a 35 min game. meanwhile they had no drags or barons. those kinds of leads will bring you back no matter how hard you fucked up before. shaco is great early game, but in bronze, late game is inevitable because nobody knows how to end games properly.

i dont claim to be a master at jungle but i can teach you some things that will give you small advantages over the enemy team that will add up into something big

I think the anivia with a GA 3rd item might be a slight reason why you lost that game.

You don't. Ello hell = Skill level... i hate to say this, and while this isn't 100% true, if you play 1000 ranked games and you're still stuck in silver, then your skill is probably silver.

If you practice a lot, get better and start ranking up. Then after some time you will find that you fell into another "ello hell".

Accepting that it's not hell, but where your skill falls, is the first step to getting out of it. Recognize what you do right and what you do wrong, then you can start to improve. Recognize what you could have done better in both the macro game and micro game and you will start to average more wins. Yes, you will still lose games. Though going from winning 60/100 games, to 65/100 games can sometimes be enough to move you up a bracket.

admittedly this is coming from someone who has never been "stuck in ello hell", i rarely play ranked and only ever played until gold 5 for the seasonal rewards. Though coming from a competitive athlete, this is how you improve at anything.
