My Win-Ratio Is Currently Stellar...

Mavëríck·Mar 26, 2019·2 votes·3,126 views

And I had an easy and fantastic climb through bronze to Silver 4. Awesome.

Silver is always where teams start feeding and being terrible in every game I'm in. I'm a support main favoring these champions as a Support/Jungle;

Supports

Jungles

I plan to purchase the following;

I'm currently like 20 wins to 15 losses. So my LP gains are awesome.

I've never made it out of Silver, and this is my best chance currently to. How do I do it going forward? What steps can I take to ensure I see that Gold for the first time ever? I am so scared it'll be like my main account where I have 110 wins to like 120 losses and am getting shit for LP.

dodge toxic queues.

But I'll lose LP and take a loss thus lowering my LP gain over time won't I?

Dodging doesnt ruin your MMR or consider a loss in your stats unless you are in promos. Secodly if you dodge you lose 3 lp and get 5 min wait and 10 lp of 2nd time and 10-20 min ( i dont remember rn) vs wasting 30-40 min with afkers,trollers, feeding teamates and losing 17-20 lp, draining your mentality and energy to play another one.

So how long does it take for my account to repair itself after two dodges for example? Cause if the penalties just get progressively worse then idk.

Also here's my latest stats. https://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=Mav%C3%ABr%C3%ADck

Anyone with advice would be awesome.

your stats are pretty damn sharp and you do also pretty lot of damage compared with your teammates

I'm finding I have to carry even harder just getting to Silver 4 than I did in Bronze 2-1. It's actually very draining to have so many "bads" on my team that don't listen or make good decisions in game.

This development makes me worry that Silver is the true elo where the huge snowballs happen and I get all the toxics on my side while enemy gets Plat smurfs.

ye just last note if you somehow don't get to gold you can still prove to yourself that you're good that your stats are sharp and that you literally climbed through whole division up, that's also pretty hard to do

I know. But I just want that Gold border. One year. Just one season of being above that 70% of the player base in SOMETHING in my life.

I suggest you play morgana,galio,brand,zyra,lux,nami. They have damage to help you with the damage deficiency cause someone from your team is dying alot more and doesnt deal damage to enemies.

Might not be a bad idea with the Aftershock nerfs incoming next patch.

The reset is 20-22 hours. I mean you wont be dodging more than twice ( i assume that you play 4 to 6 games max each day and the games are 30 -40 min average and timer to find a new one plus the banning/champ-select is around 5 min - so 1 game per 45 min.)

Gotcha. I never realized dodging was a viable strategy. I just played every game under fear of penalties without knowing exactly how those penalties are applied.

Well riot per se isnt encouraging it but if you guess that you wil get stuck in a game with people that they start flaming from champ select you can expect toxic gameplay,then leave before starts cause it will drain you or worse trigger you so much that you will start flaming and potentially go out of line and get banned.

I suppose it would be beneficial to dodge unfavorable match ups rather than try to force my way through them. Like being Leona vs a Vel'koz... that's probably not going to work out in my favor huh? I've played enough to know which champions are going to have all the advantage over me.

giannishannibalMar 26, 20191 votes

Not only that. For example i was in champ select and i saw vayne top, twitch jungle, xerath mid and jinx-zyra bot ( i was first pick zyra and i had only twitch was hovered-i say ok as long we have 1 godd tank or bruiser to intiate and tank it can work but later i saw my team picks). Can you see whats wrong with the composition like we are too squishy and no frontline. And enemy team had tanks/intiator . Guess what i decided.. Yes it was dodge this crap-why cause the last time i had it (yes i had the privelage to see 3 adc comps in ranked) it failed so miserably (vs lee sin jungle and top volibear) that we had broken top inhib at 14 min and they end it at 22 min and that game was 1 week ago. Also if i see my teamate banning someone else hovered champion and they start flaming and threatening to troll and pick first time ever azir jungle then yes i wait till last second and i dodge. There is no way I am dealing with the psycholigacal issues of theirs and definately want to avoid dead-serious threats and toxicity from first minutes of the game cause I can just mute them but they will just type and wont bother playing and we will lose anyway.

giannishannibalMar 26, 20191 votes

Also i suggest you pick easier jungle picks like ammumy,rammus,warwuick and sejuanni cause even thought they build tanky they have satifying damage and tankiness while they way easier to learn and master their abilities have huge hitboxes and they have tons of CC and it will help you focus on wards, tracking enemy jungler, when to start a secretly-fast-dragon or baron under their noses and other macro decisions.

I got silver after provisionals and couldn't get out, officialy got out through supporting and having the most luck playing with good Xayah players I could support Rakan as well as other crap. It's not uncommon that someone is stuck in division for example I am stuck in Gold 4 losing more and more games (monkaS) but eventualy all you have to do is simply focus on your gameplay and help your team as fast as possible. You can never change how people will play and react to certain situations such as feeders who won't stop feeding after whole team pinging and writing that he should stop (at least for me these people never stop feeding) But I'm sure that everyone with enough effort can reach Gold division I wish you good luck in your games

Thank you. As soon as I hit Gold I'm actually retiring from LoL! I just need to get that Gold and prove to myself I can do it. Just once.

as my 6th sense says you sound like a really confident player that know's what he is doing and generally speaking me personaly when I started playing LOL I got from bronze to silver first year than bronze silver gold next year and now season just started and I'm already gold so I strongly belive that effort can definetly put you in the Gold [slayer-pantheon-thumbs]

Thank you. I'm actually a reformed toxic shitter of a person. I don't do that no more, as evidenced by my increased performance.
