can someone please explain to me how i'm supposed to ever make it out of bronze, when i manage to get a few decent enough teams and get 4 wins in a row earning me 44 LP, and then lose it all after 2 games?? i'm really struggling to understand how its possible to make it anywhere in ladder specially just from B4 to B3 when i need more then two wins to offset when i'm going to lose thru a loss.

It's possible to get out of Bronze. I've done it twice. First time was the first season I played rank in. Second time was this season when Riot purposely placed every one lower than usual. I ended up in B4. Yeah, there are tons of AFKs/DCs there but if you don't belong there, you'll get out.

If you want to gain more than you lose, you have to win more games. If your teammates are bad, then I imagine the other team is just as bad if you guys are all in the same division. Be a leader and tell them what you want them to accomplish in that game. That's how I win most of my games. I tell who to go top. I tell when to get baron or drag. I tell whoever's alone to back off because I see a gank coming. Pinging is your best friend. Don't be afraid to spam it.

I agree with everything you said, except the part "Don't be afraid to spam it."

3 pings max. If 3 isn't enough to get their attention, they are probably the kind of person who will ignore you on purpose out of spite. Plus, spamming pings is annoying for your whole team.

I main mid, and I always triple ping MIA when the enemy mid tries to roam. It's easy to miss a single ping, but if you are always spamming pings until the game won't let you ping any more your team will get annoyed.

I exaggerated when I said "don't be afraid to spam." I don't even spam 3x in most cases. I just spam twice when I see an MIA or am telling someone to becareful. However, if I see an incoming gank, like, I LITERALLY SEE the enemy heading towards someone on my team, I will definitely spam 3-5 times.
