hey, i'm FOXlegend007 i got placed in bronze 3 when i started off ranked, then i dropped all the way to bronze 5 :) i started to play better for some reason and got back to 3. but now i started falling back downwards when i feel like i'm still the same. i check out guides to build the right items, i have mastery pages and runes. i even adapt my builds when i'm playing against ap or ad champions. but yet i'm still bad, why is that and how can i improve ? what am i doing wrong and is there a big problem? this is my op.gg account --> https://euw.op.gg/summoner/userName=FOXlegend007 i mostly play mid (lux, ahri or annie) depending on matchup or jungle( jax, and recently lee sin). i want to master those champions and climb with them.

thanks for your help, even if your not commenting but just want to read my elo hell text.

You're getting Deathcap far too early. Ludens is better for burst, and Voidstaff scales better + cheaper, with relatively the same damage.

Morellos -> defensive (banshees/Zhonyas/Roa/GLP)->Voidstaff/Ludens->Deathcap is more effective, I believe.

Stop building Liandry's, it isn't bad, per se, but there's usually better items. A mages core: item 3165 item 3135 item 3089 item 3157 / item 3102 item 3285 item 3020 doesn't leave much room for improvisation, although Luden's could be swapped out for something else, it's usually the best choice unless you want GLP or RoA or Seraphs.

Just from the brief look I took, Lux, Jax, and Veigar are by far your best champions. I would play them exclusively / become a one trick until you climb to your desired rank. If you have <50% win rate in ranked with a champion after 6+ games, I would not use that champion in ranked anymore until you practice them in normal a bit more. That said, the champion you choose is only part of the solution. With lux especially you have really good roam potential, so at lvl 6 (and earlier if bot or top is pushing hard towards your teams side of the map) shove your lane all the way to the enemy tower, even if that means missing a few cs. And just take a quick walk to top or bot and try to gank.

Another common mistake I see with mid laners especially in low elo, is if your enemy laner disappears and they wernt super low health / backing, you need to ping it and roam WITH them, with possible exceptions for AD mids like Talon, Zed and Yasuo who could feasibly take a turret in the absence of their laner.

Thank you for being nice.

??? Answer seems simple. Just play Lux and go Mid/Support. You have a much better record on her than other champion. Your jungling from op.gg seems poor. And even your Annie isn't too hot recently. Not sure how hard it is to get the Mid position. If you queue Mid/Supp, you can then queue Mid/Top and at least get a solo-lane next game.

If you know how you should be playing, the best thing you can do is watch replays of your matches, especially for ones where you don't do well. If you feel like you are playing properly and still doing poorly, you need to watch what others do.

And something I always make sure of - do you have your camera unlocked?
