Silver 2+ is as hard as gold 1
I have been placed in silver 2 with a 6/4 win loss, and I have been there ever since. I had to improve a LOT in my adc game to carry in this below average elo. Right now I'm 1 win away from silver 1. To prove my point on how hard silver 2 is, most borders I see are gold and even platinum. I have never seen a silver border in the silver elo.
