Listen, i've been trying my best, and sometimes it works but I'm stuck and I need to get to gold fast my dude. I've been playing korean build mf because shes busted to no end but no matter how hard I carry and try to win, I always seem to lose and just get back to where i started. I try VERY hard not to blame my teammates but it's difficult to contain my composure when you see shit that can only exist in silver elo. I need general tips from those fortunate enough to carry themselves out of silver. I can confidently say my mechanics are decent enough for silver and my teamplay as well as csing is decent enough to climb out as well. I've watched too many "HOW TO CARRY YOURSELF OUT OF SILVER" videos for anything to make sense anymore. I just need to know if theres anything else I'm missing because it's honestly so frustrating at this point

I was stuck at silver 1/2 for most of this season until I figured out I wasn't helping my team well enough during the early stages of the game. I would win lane more often than not or help a lane while jungling but I wasn't thinking big picture most of the time. You need to help secure objectives, they are the most important thing in this game. learn when to take an advantage over the other team and also learn how to profit off that advantage. so many games i've played where mid game consists of 20 minutes of each team fucking around mid lane until someone is dumb enough to get caught. learn how to push a lane, apply pressure, rotate to another lane, get a tower, etc. If you see the enemy jungler top side and you jsut pushed bot out of lane then take dragon, you just saw your lane opponent go back and you don't need to immediately? shove the lane so they lose cs. get an advantage in one lane, rotate to another and give them an advantage, things like that. it's hard to tell you for certain what you need to do differently without seeing how you play, so try to take some time each game and really figure out what is the cause of your losses.

ADC's can't carry right now unless their team lets them.

Last season it was a lot easier to grab a kill or two and become a nightmare on an adc. This season, you can do what you did and it just not be enough at all. MF is fairly team composition and playstyle dependent. She wants those tight jungle team fights with juggernauts and stuns to keep people in her ult. Many teams just don't even think about these things and play their "main" or whatever champ they feel like with no thought about it.

I've found it easiest to carry on support because once you get your adc ahead and safe enough, you can roam like crazy and help every lane. Jungle helps too but I find that i'm spending ALL my time ganking for teams that are going to lose lane no matter what I do. Really though, it's about finding that champion or five that you can carry anything. For me it's Sion, Trundle, Tahm, Jinx, and Warwick. It's rare I can't carry on them. Unfortunately, RIOT has it set up so that no matter HOW GOOD I perform, I'm going to lose half my games. This means you need to hit a critical number of games to advance but it really only takes winning about 55% of your games to go up in rank.

The worst part of this is that those losses could come at the worst times like in promo's. I've had that artificially keep me in lower ranks for ages.

Add me, we'll play and I'll see if I can help.
