Do People in Silver/Gold/Diamond Still Death with Trolling?

I really believe its impossible for me to crawl out of bronze. Every other game someone troll picks/feeds/afks/rage quits... something. Do other tiers have to deal with that?

There's a saying that elo hell is the elo you are currently at.

Case in point: You climb and climb and you reach Plat 1 and you're just so freaking excited to get promoted into Diamond, like wow, I'm Diamond! Right? WRONG. You will quickly find out that Diamond 5 is known as "elo hell."

All you can do is be positive and help your own approach to the game. That's all you have control over :)

Bronze is a feed fest, so there's no point in complaining about dying.

Also troll picking is a myth anything is viable in bronze if not S6 makes it viable again.

Silver, gold, platinum, diamond, and I'm sure higher tiers even have it. It eventually becomes less and less frequent naturally, as the amount of players in each higher tier is smaller and smaller.

As stated, "troll picks" don't really exist in low ELO as a lot of people don't fully grasp how to exploit enemy weaknesses and abuse their own strengths. You and I included to some extent.

You see, "believe" is the key word there. Please stop making up bs with how you can't leave bronze. If I were to put you in a game with a mid gold player, you'd get demolished.

Plus, how do you think elo boosting stays up? Because they feed on your delusional state. Why can they climb with feeders/trolls/afks??? Huh? Explain please.... im waiting.

Honestly, I think I ran into more trolls and ragers in low Platinum than I had in Silver or Gold.

There is no reason that trolls and afks can't also be reasonably skilled at the game.

Silver still has rage quits at least low silver

I'm gold 2, and almost reliably. From what I understand every match up until about Diamond 4 is a question of "Who has the biggest ragemaster who can't deal with being behind by 3 kills?" [slayer-pantheon-popcorn]

Silver 2 is the hardest elo of all time, such a mixed bag

I guess its just hard to find ways to improve enough to get out of bronze when I go 23/5/16 or 16/6/15 with Garen but still lose 18 LP. It comes back full circle to a person S/A/B score should lesson or increase the LP they lose or gain.
