Solo carry champs?

Glutter·Nov 27, 2018·1 votes·40,474 views

Hi board community, i was just wondering, what champs did get you out of silver/gold? I tried many of them: Adc: Kai'sa(yeah cancer ik), Kog'maw, Draven, Sivir. Mid: Diana, Ap Seju(yeah it acutally works in silver). Top: Darius, Aatorx, Garen. Jungler: Amumu, Rek'sai, Tank Seju, Ap Seju. Support: Nami, Soraka.

In 85% of games. i played pretty well in laning phase, but sadly at end, game was lost. Soo i was wondering, what champs can beat Darius, Kassadin and those guys who can get fed in every part of game, or which champ did you play to get out of elo hell?

Edit: some good builds would be appricated as well [katarina-love]

“Solo carrying” isn’t so much about 1v5, so much as it is about getting your team to fight with you. In my opinion, the BEST champion for this is Jarvan. Other Vanguards and Divers also work well. What carries games is getting a feel for when to take which fights, and then signaling your team to follow with a flashy engage.

Tried that alraedy, but in silver you can't really much rely on ur team, dont wanna complain bout my teammtse rn, not the point, but after i got 8/1 in 11mins and realized my botlane inhibitor is missing, i turned my face to solo carry :P

Play your best champions and focus on improving each game as opposed to winning. If you are actually good enough to get out of your current elo then playing your best champions will do that the quickest(obviously take some champion strength into account like if your main is at like a 30% win rate don't play them lol). If you are not good enough just yet just focus on what you can do to improve your game. (obviously take some champion strength into account like if your main is at like a 30% win rate don't play them lol).

One thing that is is super helpful when trying to climb is honestly just having the right mindset. If you go into every game with the sole intent of winning that single game it is much easier to get tilted when something does not go your way and harder to reflect on your mistakes to improve. If you go into your games with the intent of improving so that you can win more in the future then it is easier to analyze what you can work on and not get as tilted when things do not work out. If you are able to play well in lane 85% of the time focus then on what you are doing after.

It might be somewhat boring or time consuming but just looking at your own gameplay/replays and figuring out what DECISIONS you can improve upon will help you climb better than just switching a champ. Player skill makes more of an impact on the amount of games that you will win than champion choice.

"You are division u deserve bla bla " spare me from that shit, after i win my lane i cant kill up to 2 people before blitz support who went adc since he doesnt give a fuck with his 7 one shots me. Tbh i hate ur type of guys who imitate some pro players with taht "ur il elo u deserve" since you know just cover of the game, not deep parts.

Play your best champions and focus on improving each game as opposed to winning.

I already mastered few champs to god level and destroy all lanes in every possible way, but you know, that doesnt mean a shit. I guess u gonna say now "then master them even better", well ill tell you stop being to imitate challengers simply cuz you heard that frase of theirs "ur divison u deserve."

when yi/taric kayle/yi were in meta many true golds climbed to way higher divison soo that frase its completly wrong in every way, way to climb in this game is picks that goes beyond meta, and are stronger even from riot, since he cant negate them.

also this wasnt my question, tho i expected some smartasses.

Sorry man I was just trying to share some advice that helped me and multiple friends climb from bronze/silver "elo hell' to gold/plat. It is up to you if you want to actually climb or if you are content on stagnation. And lets be real with ourselves, if you TRULY have competence on a champion then climbing out of silver should be an absolute breeze for you, you want just usually win lane, you will actually be able to carry most games. I am not sure why you are so against the idea that it is possible that you do actually deserve your current elo that you cannot escape. The is absolutely nothing wrong with not being able to climb because of current skill level but if you refuse to acknowledge that this is the reason then there really is not a point in asking for help.

GlutterNov 28, 20181 votes

Of course there is nothing bad in not being to climb beacuse of your own skill. Let me explain you, dont wana sound like pro or smth, but im playing this game for 5 years, i saw every type of player, and im very easily able to determinate who deserves which elo, and when i see runes/picks/plays and what else not from silver players, im 100% sure im WAY above that, if you want me to be detailed there is no problem, i can show you exctaly what i mean on.

"Hi board community, i was just wondering, what champs did get you out of silver/gold?" Ye right XD

nuclearwarpotatoNov 28, 20182 votes

What he really wants is "play x champ and he will carry you from hardtack s2 to plat with no change in skill level". He doesn't want to learn how to climb he just wants a quick fix because he "deserves to be ranked higher but cannot climb himself"

sneakydougNov 27, 20182 votes

You don’t play tanks to get out of elo hell.

One tactic is to take a strong splitpusher on top and just keep splitting on top. Tryndamere is one such champ. Take ignite and go for an all in level 2. That can snowball you in a few games.

But realistically there’s “trolls” and bad players on both sides. Accept that you’ll be on a worse team sometimes and that you’ll lose games. Also accept that sometimes you’ll be responsible for the game loss. Win or lose as a team.

Just don’t tilt and you’ll be out eventually

GlutterNov 27, 20181 votes

Usally i don't tilt but, of course, no one is perfect. Losing game as 16/4 in 20mins can tilt a bit :P

GlutterNov 27, 20181 votes

Also lvl 2 kills dont work anymore since ppl just flash away.

WilyumNov 27, 20181 votes

I think the best solo carry champions are Irelia, Jax, Master Yi, and Tryndamere. Playing well in lane is only important for getting that early lead to use in team fights. Kai'Sa is a great pick for this, you just need to know how to position yourself. Any champion can be your solo carry champion, look at my Warwick (when I try hard and am not drunk I usually can roll with him). Positioning is probably the most important thing in silver and gold, that and try to focus more on one lane and master a couple of champions for that lane. As far as getting autofilled, you need to learn how to just not feed and go even, you don't have to win lane you just need them to not win lane.

GlutterNov 27, 20181 votes

Warwick can be easily countered by damage scaling of enemys HP%, irelia might work but aint easy to do, i may give her a shot, trynda wont work after statik nerf i think

WilyumNov 27, 20181 votes

My point with Warwick is that any champion can carry if you are simply better than your opponent. There are Master ranked people playing only Mordekaiser, if you just give one champ enough time you can carry with them. If you don't like Trynd, you could try Yorick, Illoai, or Nasus, they are great at smashing down towers and can easily 2v1 giving your team a strong advantage when they come to stop your push.

GlutterNov 28, 20181 votes

i tried tryda, hes good, i get to enemy nexus, then i check scoreboard and realize their support stopped supporting and went dmg build since hes fed. But rly, trynda is good

WilyumNov 28, 20181 votes

Yeah, Trynd is great for being able to fight multiple opponents and still come out on top or escape alive, this is basically what you want when looking to solo carry.

GlutterNov 28, 20181 votes

Nah cc negates him.

WilyumNov 28, 20181 votes

That does not take away from his solo carry ability, and it does not negate him. Anyone is "negated" by CC.

LadyLanternNov 27, 20181 votes

I snowball pretty hard with evelynn, granted that I have a decent team, while I do agree that mindset is a lot of what you need, but I also have to bring the attention that mindset isn't always the only thing. I only play flex because I can trust my team mates to not feed within the first five minutes, or I can trust them to ward their rivers or bushes when they need or even paying attention to the map when I'm fighting a 2v1 in the jungle.

Everyone can say that its only mindset, but if you are not good enough to solo hard carry a match then no its not all you need, smart team mates are also a must imo. Ive been in way to many solo/duo games to where I get trolls, people who just shouldn't be in ranked because they are not educated enough to know how to properly play IE: map awareness, vision control, and great positioning.[sg-lux-2]

But also One tricking is a good way to climb as well as much as it is frowned upon -_-

GlutterNov 28, 20181 votes

That mindset shit is smartassing, i saw a lot of god tier flamers who carried games. Btw they really dont feed in first 5 minutes in flex? holy crap im gonna give it a shot. Also i suck as eve xd.

LadyLanternNov 28, 20181 votes

I don't play with randoms in flex. I play with a good team of friends that I make, and I did that by posting on the forums looking for ppl to play with that I have synergy with. I dont play ranked of any sort with randoms anymore because of the poor synergy that usually comes with it.

ankoanko19Nov 27, 20181 votes

Tbh, you can solo carry with anything under like Diamond 3. I solo'd from S5 to P1 in just two months only playing (old) Irelia, despite her being in the weaker end.

GlutterNov 28, 20181 votes

I tried many, against fed enemies nothing works.

CagmasFeb 18, 20191 votes

I don't know if you are still in silver, but from reading the thread I noticed you are doing well but your teammates are not. So I think what you should be doing is play a role such as Jungle or mid and focus on roaming and objectives etc. This will basically keep and even playing field with for teammates but you will be up so it will be an easy win.

GlutterMay 21, 20191 votes

i manged to get to g3 smwh, but right now im playing junglers mostly, especailly twitch jungle, every game i start red buff, and gank right off one of lanes causing them to get good advantage, works every time, its even better when the lane which u gave advantage to has 1/5 i 8 minutes :)

Also tried the objevcitevs/roaming tactic, i lose games with like 6-7 turrets taken even when my teammtes fed as fck
