The climb out of bronze

Bowl of Oatmeal··2 votes·856 views

haHAA another low-elo player in self denial about himself. It's easy to make fun of someone when you haven't experienced ones agony. And stop saying just get gud and carry. It's easy to carry for those that are gold and above, but when i'm realistically silver V I just can't.

Anyway, I'm here looking for solid advice on climbing out of bronze this season. I know the season just started but for some reason this time around the

matches/players in bronze seem... worse. Last season I climbed out to silver V and stayed there because the climb left me mentally scarred. During

preseason I got to silver IV pretty easily, don't know if it's because people try less, nonetheless I did it. This season I placed Bronze II and holy cow does it

suck. Players listen less to pings and advice than I remember. I'm trying to stay positive and say "maybe next game i'll get a better team", but it doesn't

happen. I'm not even asking for an amazing team just one that DOES NOT feed and listens to pings. There is more flaming than ever and I've even started

using the /mute all command since it gets so bad. Feel free to look at my op.gg and give me advice because I feel like i'll be in bronze longer this season

and it's just tanking my mmr to where i just get worse teammates. Kinda wish the honor level system paired you up with people that are the same honor

at least that way maybe i'd have less flamers.

[SORRY ABOUT WEIRD FORMATTING I WAS TRYING TO DOUBLE SPACE lol]

  1. Main 3-4 Champions and only play them and master them
  2. Once you get fed in lane stop trying to get more fed on the same person and roam and get your other lanes fed
  3. CS close to Perfect
  4. If your team isn't buying wards and warding their lanes do it for them.
  5. Don't be toxic at all and if you have to be then mute the chat so you don't. Players in bronze-Gold don't react well to criticism and you telling them they did something wrong isn't going to make them play better

Do this and you will be gold easily by the end of the season

Ugh silver is almost worse then bronze. Silver is full of the "im not bronze i must be good" mentality. Last season and the one b4 i would hit S1 promos then end up never winning a game untill i hit S5 and then unable to leave.

As someone in the same boat and having friends in the same boat. Just try to play pub stompers till silver 3ish then try to duo as much as possible with trusted carries.

if you support like me dont play solo support untill gold 3 ish cuz then you wont realy get many silvers. Try to find a good duo that you work well with.

I agree people dont realize how much harder low ELO is. Sure players arnt good but thats exactly why its harder cuz your team is also bad

Play tanks or ADC. Abuse the meta. Win lane and roam. Learn what to buy if you don't get ahead.
