I AM FREEE!!!!!!!!!!!!
It has finally happend I have done it I am now Silver 5 in soloQ...now for those that don't know and that implies almost everyone I started this season as unranked and a friend said I should do ranked. so after a lot of nagging I finnally did it now I got placed in bronze 4... you see what I mean now by free. I wanted to get out of there fast but there was a problem. the elevator was out.
now the climb was real. I main Darius top and because everyone wants top or mid its hard to get that role. I then decided to pick up Yi jungle, and fizz mid. but this still wasn't enough cause people may pick the champ you want so if I had to fight against a darius top I would take a teemo top or a champ I know how to play as that counters darius.
1.so first rule to help you climb better is learn a champ and one of his counters so you know how to fight as and against either of those champs. 2. the next rule to help you climb better is to learn at least one other lane. 3. next learn the roles. support, adc, mid lane, jg, top. this helps you understand how the rest of your team works. supports don't usually damage. and adc's are squishy.
now as I was climbing I took notice of something a friend had told me. (dude you need to work on your cs skills.) this is the biggest thing you can do to get out of bronze,but the real question is how to do this if you have no range and your fighting a ranged champ. now getting better with cs is actually harder than it looks. you have to know your champ like the back of your hand. unless your jg cause nothings going for you monster but you. for me I played custom/bot games only paying heavy attention to the minions health every time I attacked. now sooner or later you will be able to tell when you can one hit a minion with an auto. good now that your have that CS down how to do it in a pvp match is much harder or is it. you see in bronze people dont pay much attention to cs. you should do this and you can get more items than the enemy. now one good set of skills to invest in to help you cs is feast on the offensive mastery tree which can make a big difference for that damage. and all you have to do is get cs to use it.
4.Practice CS 5.focus CS 6. Feast in the offensive mastery tree gives you 3 health and 1 mana ( I think) per unit killed. 7. Ward a bush to keep you safe from ganks. 8. Ping mia of enemy when every they disappear from your sight. even if only for a second, but not when they run into a brush that has no were to go like top side brush or bot side brush. other wise ping. 9.Dragon timer is 6 mins. you here a dragon roar and you dont have vision like at ingame clock subtract 5 seconds and then add 6mins and that will be when drag is next up.
these things will help you climb faster. best of luck on getting out.
