Help Me! My ranked sucks!

Paladin 0f Life··1 votes·353 views

Hey I am silver 4 and when i play normals I usually stomp people especially with assassins or hard carries. But when I play ranked I find that I get harassed too much and killed even if I play the champion im laning against. I try to harass back and I think i do a good job then i get killed and it just snowballs. So far the only way I have climbed is by playing support. And I am a pretty good sup especially with tanky peelers like maokai, ali and leona. But now i dont really main anything even though i prefer mid burst mages. It seems like I get outclassed and outplayed so easily by my opponents. What do I do to get better? I have focused so much on cs ing, harass, denying cs and laning in general. My map awareness is what I am currently focusing on because i ward pretty well but dont look for possible ganks when i tunnel on cs. I feel bad because in silver 5 I could carry but now in silver 4 i just get stomped and try to farm enough to get carried. What do i do to get better so i can get gold?

tbh ranking up is mostly grinding out games, just keep at it if youre mechanics and map awareness are where they need to be youll go up in rank

if that was true I'd be diamond by now. I hit plat in may after 200 wins or so and plat 1 in late june... still in plat. grinding absolutely doesn't guarantee a higher rank.

then that's basically saying "just get better" which is true in general but is not very helpful.

work on your mechanics and map awareness, those are pretty much the only two things you have direct control over

in normals people aren't playing their best roles and arent taking strategy seriously. I mean when I play normals I often play my worst roles and worst champs so I can improve without losing a ton of elo.
