Hi, people, i just got out of bronze this season (who is my first) after a lot of time of constant playing and trying to improve, it taken me almost 2000 games, but at least, im silver now and i think i can probably achieve gold next season. I'm surely not a god yet and i don't even really watched lcs or pro streams but, for sure, i improved, and mostly by myself. I followed my guts feeling, and it paid.

One of my biggest problems was going on tilt and one time, at mid of season, i even achieved silver but fell all the way back over to bronze v over tilt and lack of skills needed. i tried all kind of stuffs, all kind of champs, i was desperate on how to improve, i was watching guides but couldn't climb still. Finally, i said to myself, fuck guides, i will get to silver with my own playstyle. And it worked, guides still kinda helped me but i wasn't totally following them and i only grabbed things here and there to make my own, enpowered playstyle. I once tried god tiers champs but it didn't work. I decided to play champs that i loved and know i could play well, maining wasn't for me, so, i tried to pick according to team comp while avoiding to get countered. I choosed 4 champs for each roles, each having his own mastery page. (to choose my masteries, i looked at lolalytics and seen the recommended for diamond+) my champs are these :

top:Singed Malphite Pantheon Tryndamere jg:SejuaniDiana Nocturne Rammus mid:Akali Lux Ahri Diana
adc:Ashe Xayah MissFortune Twitch support:Blitzcrank Leona Brand Lux

My advice if you're like me and want to climb is : play with smurfs, get coached, try as much as you can to face better players than you. What i did was : leveling accounts (you face lot of other smurfs this way), buy smurfs accounts, try placement on these with champs you think you can place high with. This way you face lot of higher ranked players. Having smurfs and playing on them can also help when youre tilted. Also, what i did was asking for tips everywhere on the boards. I also recruited smurfs to help me climbing in player recruitement. I also got a duo boost from a plat v from bronze 2 to silver v for climbing faster cause i know i belonged higher, my duo boost was also intended to get some coaching at the same time from the booster, i was asking him questions while playing and observing how he play, trying to copy his csing. It was also a possibility for me to learn new champs at the same time.

Also, just saying, when you meet a friendly smurf who want to help you, try to ask him as most questions as you can so you can get coached while playing with him in ranked with no tilt (since youre kinda getting carried)

Maybe you think i may not stay in silver. I COULD have demoted again, i got the yellow warning but what i did was, duoing with a gold 1 friend(helped him in his plat promos, surprisingly, i seems to be doing better in game with high silver and low gold) or other smurf when i was at risk of demoting, keep asking him questions, tried to get as much ahead of 0 lp possible. I wasn't really able to play solo the games ijn silver 5 earlier since i could'nt deal with the throws. Tho, i said to myself, fuck this, i spam my safest picks and actually use my brain to win. I try taking my turret first before helping other lanes but when i see its probably better to join teamfights, i join them and i also think strategically about what im gonna do to carry this own specific game, even if it may not be optimal in higher elo games, i lack cs? fuck this, i won't lose by keeping csing at top while my team may be most likely to throw at another place on the map. So yeah, i finally got rid of the warniong so im probably gonna stay silver

Maybe, it lacked clarity but yeah, feel free to ask me any other questions you would have about my way of climbing, ill answer happily, have a great day guys(or girls) :)

So what you're saying is you acquainted a smurf account and let them carry you to silver?

it was mostly for fastening the process since i was already climbing and i wanted to get my silver border before end of season but i wanted to be coached too so i could be also good enough for silver and more it also given me a teammate on whom i could count, but btw, i also did my job and got good scores the games with him, i tried to carry on my own too.
