I Don't Understand Challenger ELO

I watch a lot of high ELO streamers, and almost across the board these guys are A) obviously really good, but B) often try to make flashy solo plays which are just downright stupid and inty...

....And yet everyone else at that ELO is doing it so they still win games its crazy. If I played with the level of int these guys play with I would never make it out of Silver/Gold 100%. 1 or 2 big map mistakes or throws = pretty much gg usually in my games, wierd how it doesn't seem to matter nearly as much in higher ELO

They are at the top so they have nothing else to do

In my opinion, I think some people that are in masters and challengers are just lucky with the teams they get. It isn't about there skill level, it's just that they were carried by luck with a little bit of mechanics that any platinum or diamond player rivals.

What might seem stupid and inty to you, probably has something very different running through their mind.

If you played at the "level of int" they played with, you would be challenger. They are alot better then us and we couldnt understand what they are doing

The difference is when you hands up a bronze account to a master/challenger, he crushes his way from bronze to diamond with a near perfect record. (I've seen accounts with 50 wins 1 lose up to diamond 2).
