is it possible to get out of Bronze now...?

So to start off I do not think I'm a challenger player like a lot of people that fail to climb.

Second - we need a system that you don't lose LP for AFK's - because I have one of those one in every three games. We also need a system where a player who goes 10-0 loses less LP than the player who goes 0-10. It's incomprehensible where the logic lies there. I UNDERSTAND it is a team game, but I'm stuck with these players that simply do not understand that this isn't a free for all.

But the reality is - at Bronze, it really isn't too difficult for me to win my lane, or even go without dying until mid/late game. I main Anivia who obviously is nearly impossible to kill early game as well. I AM AWARE KDA IS NOT EVERYTHING - but to say it "doesn't matter" is flat out ridiculous, even if you're really not accomplishing a ton, that is still better than feeding. My avg. is 7.9/2.6/9. That being said, there have been games I have carried and won, and also MORE games I have "carried" and lost. Today a 19/2 Udyr game for example and lost.

Fact of the matter is, you have players in lanes who feed consistently because they have no idea how to deal with those champions, whether that be from just not playing long enough, or just literally refuse to absorb the knowledge but continue to play ranked games and bring everyone down rather than trying to better themselves.

Again I don't think I'm this spectacular exceptional player, but I have a lot of game knowledge, and have an understanding of how to play.

What I wish would happen Someone AFK's for a certain period of time -> 15+ Minutes = Less LP lost/Loss Forgiven A certain number of dodges allowed

Yes, obviously possible and fairly easy. Winning lane doesn't mean you're playing well. Where you are on the map is what matters the most.

your playing to many roles, stick to 1-2 champions you have a few morgana and anivia games I'd suggest continuing, but if your truly set on the fact that the only reason your losing is because of afk's then you should really consider being a support main.

a mid or top laner feels the need to carry the team no matter what and it is the bane of every bronze elo'd player that because of this drive they have lack of vision and most often lack of understanding. as a Support you need to be able to go top mid or adc if someone discconects and play it effectively preknowledge etc. Most players are horrible at supporting, but a good support with roams has the ability to bring any game back.

I actually had 4 games now in the past day where I've had afks 2 being in one game in my series. but even so you gotta keep on fighting basically if you can't climb out as a support you belong in wherever you are :)
