if you are low elo do NOT play ranked right now
there are a bunch of reasons but i will name the main ones
-
chaos. right now the botlane is a complete mess. as we see from higher elo games, adcs are almost none existant right now. ppl play everything in bot, from 2 sups, fulltanks, bruisers and ap dudes. so noone in bronze knows what to play or why to play it aaaand a ton of idiots will cry "omfg fucking troll" if you dont play adc. because in low elo antimeta = troll. its just a thing. you can go 20/0 and yet your teammates might call you troll.

average game time right now the average game ends at 26minutes. in bronze people dont know how to close the game when ahead. i myself saw games (also thanks to kshaway) where a team had 48 kills at 17min and the game lasted almost 100 minutes. and btw... the team that was 48/13 at the 17min mark lost. with games being over so fast right now, you might just waste time on a lost game. or on a won game that you lose.
these are the 2 main reasons in my opinion why right now you really should stay away from ranked if you are low elo. people have no idea whats going on and what to play or how to play it.
botlane...
strat in a bronze game.
