Elo Hell

xXRaichopXx·Jul 14, 2016·1 votes·720 views

Can someone give me some tips on how to get out of bronze and up to silver?

(Feel free to ask about my mains, champion pool, match history, average cs, average kill participation, most common role, and more)

Getting out of elo hell contrary to what the pros will tell you is not easy.

Elo hell which is typically seen from Bronze V to Silver IV is extremely uneven.

In fact I lost a 5 v 3 game today as a plat player against and with bronzes and silvers, because thats how fucking bad they were. This is the first time Ive wanted to actually punch someone because of how stupid they were. I was playing support though so that is also important to remember.

The reason ELO hell exists is its determined based on MMR which is only based on win/loss ratio and the people you play against. As you know by now bronze is filled with many different players absolute trash, people who belong in a mental asylum, and decent people who focus objectives try their best but have a shitty luck. The reason some people get thrown into elo hell is shit luck, They start getting worse and worse team mates against slightly better enemy team matchups until the MMR is so low from all the loses the computer thinks this person is shit.

The best things I can tell you in low elo is

Dont play support if you want to win, your ADC is probably a piece of trash.
Focus your gold per minute
Focus objectives (those drags and tower dives really arent as important as you think).
If one lane starts to feed, dont have everyone go rush to kill the fed person feeding him even more.
If a lane is winning keep trying to win have your jungle stay around that lane for backup.
Play OP champions
Ping on the team mates face for MIAS, since no one looks at the map anyway
Play with friends who are decent.

Focus on getting extremely good at one champ. I just got out of B2 up to S4 basically playing only Yasuo . Champs like Zed , Yasuo , Leblanc , Ekko , Fizz , Riven , Katarina , and Akali can carry by just being mechanically good them without being mechanically good at the game.

If you go this high risk high reward route that low elo players don't know how to deal with then I would suggest Zed , Ekko , Yasuo , and Riven as they have pretty strong early games. It takes some time to actually become skilled with them however.

You can go an easier route and focus on basic game mechanics that you probably need to improve by playing low skill cap champs like Tryndamere and MasterYi who can carry but don't require much skill; ergo, they allow you to focus on basic skills (map awareness, atk move, etc)

Try the easier route to improve your game mechanics but also pick a champ that's mechanically hard to learn to play since low elo has a hard time dealing with those champs.

I do have a level 4 with Zed....

Whenever I play ranked I have trouble with farming in any lane because they poke too much (thus preventing me creeps)

I would never take Nasus in low elo, hes actually prone to cc, useless if you can kite him, has a weak early game.

I already recommended not playing support so Nasus Alistar Taric Soraka Thresh can be wiped off the list. Not that these champs arent good, alistar is, but you cant carry as support.

Heimerdinger is useless in many scenarios and champions where they can just delete his turrets.

Singed requires team play which doesnt exist

Karthus too weak for snowball

Malphite good top laner but again team fight dependent

Fiddlesticks requires skill

Poppy nerfed to the ground

TwistedFate weak

Xerath too many skill shots

I think a good carry pool is Ashe Ezreal Amumu Veigar Velkoz Warwick XinZhao Zed Khazix Garen Jinx Blitzcrank Tryndamere .

Most of these champs are good, each one is in a different role but these champs can carry hard if youre good at your role.

I have been thinking about Tyrndamere and Zed already. Xerath skill shots are pretty easy to aim for me xD. Thanks though this helps a lot!
