Is it possible to carry yourself from bronze to gold with any role?

Realistically is it possible to climb effectively up by getting very good at whichever role is your favourite, regardless of the meta, FoTM, etc?

In Season 4 I climbed from B5 to S1 with Twitch, I like adc and I prefer to play it, but I'm considering putting my effort into getting good at jg or top to get out of low mmr.

I'm going to say yes because it is possible to carry games from every role.

Climbing out of bronze and silver is all about map pressure. Bronze/Silver players are going to make many mistakes in your games (positioning and initiating being the 2 biggest ive noticed) So if you can take advantage of those things climbing will be easier for you.

I'm sure you can climb out of bronze/silver with any role, as long as you can apply a lot of map pressure. I personally find it easier with Mid assassins because not only can i roam and dominate 2 lanes at once, but assassins are good at punishing players for being out of position. And like i said, bronze and silvers are out of position a lot.

I first got to gold using nothing but Karma. But that was back in season 4 when she could jungle, top, mid and support all with great success. I also used Morgana and Leona.

I've been playing Nami quite a bit lately. She's a fantastic pick.

Play a champion a lot and once you get good enough you are able to carry

My bets on ryze this champion is best to carry mid or top with at least three items you are the frontline and backline

You can pretty much get a triple kill very easily. Adc and assassin can't qss your infinite snare and squishes explode as soon as u touch them

Sometimes you might wanna learn new champions because they aren't strong enough to fit in the current meta is what I'm trying to say

Hint: never blame your team if you are playing solo que you are trying to Get better as an individual mechincally If I get ganked and killed I blame myself for being too aggro not because gg my jungler never helps me. Learn how to play when behind. Usually cs your way to victory.

Imo ryze is best played with some people you know, so you can coordinate dem homeguard ryze tp's

Yes. I carried myself from the depths of Silver to Plat after the Sion E/W nerfs.

Thanks for the replies, helps to know that I'm not wasting my time trying to get good with certain champs and roles.

My suggestion is to try top Yorick or mid Twisted Fate in 100% of your games, and learn the answer through experience. Good luck!

Yes, unless you are playing a passive support that has zero carry potential aka soraka/janna( before you downvote me, i mean it's possible to be the sole reason you win, but if everyone else fails you go down with the ship)

Even in support you can carry with stuff like morgana, ap blitz, sona, w/e.

Absolutely. As long as you're good with the champion you're using, any champion can get you from B5 to at least platinum, probably higher. But really if you want to get really high, you really should learn at least 2 roles really well. Especially with the new system where you're likely going to end up playing the same 2 roles all the time.
