Let me share with you, what makes me cry at night. I went from gold 5 to silver 4 in one second thanks to promos. So my year of hard climbing and some luck, just got shxt on and i'm back where I started. And every team I get is literally garbage, I admit there is things I could learn and do better but how do they expect me to learn in this elo. It's literally the flamiest, most depressing place on this earth. And I'm not saying I deserve to be some Diamond two god mode 101lp, but holy shxt, there is no way these people are the same skill level. And everyone I ask says, "oh bro nugget bro, you just carry and bro some bro bro. If I was in ur elo i would just wow carry wow bro wow." wat tf did u just say to me m9? Of course a diamond is gonna poop on silvers, but i promise not one person in gold 3 or below can carry every single game in this poop shoot. How do you expect me to carry when i'm still learning myself? how do you expect me to carry an entire team, in a "team" game. Literally makes no sense at all. Every game is literally the same and i learn nothing. You get better by challenging yourself not by doing the same thing over and over expecting shit to change, cause as we know, that's insanity :D. Could a painter get better competing with elementary kids finger painting? Can a basketball player get better at shooting 3's by sitting there shooting 1's all day? Nope, you gotta challenge yourself, and the only thing challenged in this elo is the players. Every game is the same exact shxt over and over, "omg im dun fak u, im r feedin" -20lp. that is when i go make ramen noodles and cry myself to sleep. :).

How to get out silver (basic tips)

  1. Never blame anyone for a stupid play, they will just get mad and play worse. Just be nice.

  2. You must know the basics at a high level of understanding. (how to cs efficiently, how your champion works, build paths)

  3. Never go into jungles that arent warded and dont fight in them.

  4. Never over extend (if you are getting wave after wave it is too good to be true and you will get 3 man ganked)

  5. Protect your carry/Learn how to focus their carries.

  6. Turrets and inhibs are priority, always look for ways to kill them safely.

  7. Dont engage fights unless you have more numbers or are heavily ahead/have the advantage.

  8. Keep dragon warded this isnt bronze, if they have a jungler like yi or ww he will probably solo it and theres nothing you can do but ward for every other dragon and contest it as a team. You need strong dragon control.

  9. Keep your lanes pushed then push mid. Counter their waves and push them out. You need wave control.

  10. If you are in a bad match up cs and try to survive the lane. Feeding will keep you in silver.

I was the same way, going between gold 4 and gold 5 last season, got placed in silver 3, and now i'm stuck in silver 4.

I just don't understand how I'm supposed to get myself out of this elo as a support main. I feel like i have to relearn an entire new position just to get myself back to where I feel I should be. I used to be a pretty positive player, but lately I've just been muting everyone as soon as I get into the game. I just can't comprehend half of what these people do half the time.

I find it impossible to escape from silver for players, who belongs to gold 2-5. Yeah, split pushing, objectives, wards, ganking from mid, etc, etc. I fucking know, I do this every single game. I don´t want to be in plat+, because I see I´m not good enough to play there, but there is still a BIG difference between me and the rest of the team. I played a few games on friend´s gold 2 acc and that was something right for me. I mean, no insane plays or so, but people were able not to do literarly stupid things, they were able to focus on objectives, etc. I also recived some honors from that games, so I guess I did good there as well. But silver.... Either you are able to carry game basically 1v5 (you are that Brand with 12/0/7 on 13th minute), or you will stay there forever. Nothing between. Doesn´t matter if you are a little bit better than anyone else in the game, or you are that MF who stands whole time next to bush on bot and catches every single grab from Blitz. Back to the dude with gold 2 acc. He also played some games on mine acc and after them, he told me I will not get out from silver, because those games are impossible to carry even by himself. Well, either I will became a better mider than xPeke and rush challenger tier, or I will stay in that fucking hell. I see no possible way for me to reach gold and play satisfying games. Once the bot is 2/11, we have 2 dragons, both thx to me, because jungler doesn´t give a single fuck, and top is 3/5 (3 kills earned by yours ganks), you can´t carry that unless you are plat+ player.
