Reminder that ELO hell doesnt exist

If you have 500 games played at around the same division, its a good indicator that you are at the division you belong. Its pretty much statistically impossible to "always" get the feeders and trolls on your team.

DQ is a volatile shitfest and only lucky people will be climbing fast or those getting carried by their premades, the rest will have to grind like hell to get where they belong.

You're also in silver, come back and tell me u have a 72% winrate when you are in diamond and I'll accept that as an argument.

Ofc it's you, whenever your teammates feed their opponents hard while you just barely manage to gain an upper hand in your lane it's your fault, you should hold their hand and explain to them exacly how they should win their matchup, and despite that failing and eating your attention you should be good enough to carry the players who don't even belong in your league to begin with, always, it's definately you.

Honestly that's going a bit far really. Truth is, you may lose the game and it won't be your fault. Sometimes it's because of feeders. Other times, a simple last minute mistake.

What is important is to focus on your own mistakes. Nobody is perfect and even in victory there are ways to improve. If you can find your own failures and improve upon them, then your odds of winning improve guaranteed.

Pro players also get stuck in ELO hell which you claim doesn't exist.

However they are able to get out for a reason that suggests your claim is actually the result of the same mistaken thinking that probably creates ELO hell to begin with.

In short "if you can't get out after 500 games you must be a bad player"

One could argue that someone is a bad player if they can't figure out why they can't win on a particular type of team but the more accurate claim would be this:

"You cannot escape bronze by playing like a plat player or even a diamond player, you must play like an exceptional bronze player to escape from bronze. If you haven't escaped from bronze after 500 games then you are bad at analyzing and strategizing around your teams and the gamestate or whatever you wanna call it. It doesn't mean you are good or bad, you just don't have what it takes to climb"

But this is also another way of saying ELO hell exists though perhaps not in the form most portray it to be in. Its not really a matter of luck its just a matter of particular types of skills and being willing to do what you have to do. Again, pro players get stuck in ELO hell but they also get out and their advice for getting out is basically just going complete ham as hard as you can until you reach a point where your teammates don't seem to be silly people.
