The difference between Silver and Bronze...

...is night and day.

People who say there is no difference between Silver 5 and Bronze 1 are sorely mistaken.

This is my first time I have ever been in Bronze, I have always been in low to mid silvers. I went on a series of bad luck/playing on tilt and got demoted to Bronze. sigh

My heavens, Bronze is an entirely different animal. Nobody is organized. People claim they are the real thing but end up failing miserably. I had a Diana say "I am 100% win rate on Diana." So they picked Diana. During the load screen I thought I would check LOLKing... definately not 100%.... I was shen... We lost that game.

People in bronze really do go for Baron when their entire team is MIA...... People in bronze play champs in ranked that they have never played before. I had someone ask me, what does it mean to be sated? start banging head on the table

My favorite bronze game so far... I was Ashe, my supp was blitzcrank. Blitz proceeded to go afk on and off for about 6 minutes at a time under tower, but still in range of their adc. Instead of taking being a gentleman and not taking advantage of an afk.... they kill him. "a killstreak is a killstreak." Then our jgler proceeded to afk. and our riven top lane fed their xin.... I was the only person with a positive KDA.

I do not like bronze. People say that based off of statistics ELO hell does not exist. Well this isn't statistics. This is real life. Weather is based off of statistics. Economics is based off of statistics. Political polling is based off of statistics. How often are these things actually reliable when it comes to real life?

Anyway.... I am done ranting now. Do not take this as me saying I should be in Diamond but everyone around me is keeping me back. I am not the perfect player. I make plenty of mistakes. But Bronze.... Bronze is.... I just can't.

Silver is way worse, in fights, people run off and do their own shit. Absolutely no coordination.

Teams go full AD or have no tank at all. People like to go Nidalee or Lux support because they couldn't get mid.

And Baron... don't even get me started on Baron.. people worship fucking baron here. People would always attempt baron and throw the game when they could just go for the nexus and finish.

The remainder of your post notwithstanding, the majority of these things are predictable to a relatively high degree of certainty, they've just memetically become things for which statistical predictions are hilariously inaccurate. Especially the weather: people only care about forecasts when an incorrect one ruins their day.

I've been in Bronze I, it's a much better environment than Silver V. In Silver V, people don't want to attempt to reach gold. So they just ness around. At least in Bronze I, they want to climb.

These same mistakes happen in Silver as well.

The best team I've had in the past 2 weeks I had when I was still in B1.

It was amazing. When we were mid with baron, and the enemy team ran into their jg, my Diana said not to chase them and to stay mid.

Then...they did. We stayed as 5 and got their turrets.

I swear to God, that had never happened to me in the entire year+ I've been playing in Bronze.

It was amazing.

I'd hoped it was indicative of a positive change in the caliber in my teammates . . . It wasn't. My whole team still feeds half of the time in Silver V.
