What's Bronze like?

I hear so many people who are in bronze saying it's hell but really what IS it like?. The lowest I've ever been in my League history was silv 1. I just can't picture how bad players are in bronze...(no offense to the people in that area)

Well basically imagine everyone consistently making horrible decisions, giving you 1,001 opportunities to take the lead and run with it.

Bronze is everybody thinking they're challenger. Everybody follows recommended builds, nobody knows how to CS and Baron is God.

Not that bad. I climbed from bronze 4 to silver and there's not much difference in both. People just use elo hell as an excuse.

Bronze V is slightly better skill level average than bots honestly. Here's an example:

I was playing a game on another account which was Bronze 3. We were winning slightly I was on Kayle and my team decided to do dragon. I was tired of the game so I walked up to the one inhibitor that was open - destroyed it as Kayle building all 8 stacks of guinsoo, proceeded to solo their team 1 vs 5 killing all 5 of them and destroying both nexus turrets and then the nexus.

After the game my team kept asking me "wtf happened?"

Everyone's a lot nicer in Bronze. I'd rather be here than in Silver.

It's horrible. I climbed myself out but it took forever. There are a lot of players that go AFK, grief, and are just bad. Riot pairs the first time ranked players or fresh level 30 players that decide to play ranked for the first time. It is HORRIBLE. I would suggest queing up with some friends that you can at least communicate. You will get a feeder in top, mid or bot lane at least every game. It is inevitable in bronze.

That's what I'm saying when I did my placesments years ago they placed in my Silver 3 and I ended my first ever season in gold. This season I ended in Plat. But I've known friends to never make it out of Bronze. I Honestly thought Bronze was like bots on the team and stuff o.o.....clealy I was wrong.

Bronze is horrible took all season to climb from B4 to S5, it was painful very very painful. You will get 3 players on each team who know whats what. Then you have a 50% chance to get the other two are just playing their own solo game. If your Enemy team gets the random roll of luck where they have 4 people that play the team game then they win. You can get your bot and mid 4 kills up each in lane, but if jungle and top wont play the team game you lose. You get the top Malphite that says he has to split push because that's how you win and wont stay with the team. Even when your trying to defend mid 4v5, and Malp says he has to split push now bye.

A lot of people in bronze read guides, and get the idea right but they just do it wrong. They don't understand Malp is not a split pusher and when your trying to defend mid, and you have turrets to help its not time to peace out on your team. Kill one or two of the enemy then sure go split but not with Malp. Just a lot of hair pulling bad decision making.

Also someone will rage at Malp then he just stops listening to anyone. I'm very polite trying to explain why we need him with us, but to bad Azir has already gone off saying he's downs or whatever.

It's basically bots. People have no awareness or understanding of almost any part of the game. Mechanics are really sloppy, CS is generally less than 100 by the 25 minute mark. The only time they will do something is after they win a team death match, otherwise games are just basically randomly walking around.
