Seriously how do I carry low ELO?

Paladin 0f Life··1 votes·683 views

I am really busting my balls but it seems that even if I get the advantage I push we do well but then team wont group and/or they go for wrong objective so then when its team fighting time they do something dumb like fight when im not there or go for terrible engages and then that throw away all of my lead and from there we just get stomped. Im not saying im great but I do win lanes and I out farm and kill my opponent almost 90% of the time. How do i carry 4 scrubs or 3 and an afk because it really does happen too often. Ive noticed I generally do better as a jungler but when I ADC even though i still get kills my support doesnt ward. will feed. take cs for no reason. KS even though im at almost perfect farm and already have 2 kills. Like i wish i wasnt exaggerating. And not to mention they have no clue what a tower dive is. I have literally 0 faith in my team and just try to play as though I am only carry unless I see a good CS or they take the right objective then I have some faith. When i shot call and they listen we typically win but even when im 6 0 4 and they wont listen to me I dont get it? I just started playing ranked seriously last season just played like 14 games and got to silver 4. Now my placements got screwed because with the new que i accidentally played ranked instead of draft and didnt catch it. So i lost placement 3 and 4 baddddd which set me in high bronze then i supped terrible adcs and it just spiraled. I shit on the bronzies in B3 right now and I know i will get out eventually. But all of these crappy games like why dont they listen? Why do they afk? Why even play ranked knowing I will have to play for a month or two before i get back to where i started last season?

Your ranked stats show you dont play one champ the most. Try learning one champ and mastering one champ.

generally whatever you win in normals easily you will win in ranked.

Well i realize that playing sup is not going to work in bronze. Placements just went really bad. I will main Amumu and Ziggs those are my comfort picks besides Naut and Morg. But i havent really played a whole lot of ranked and my champ pool is pretty big and consistent i usually go for counter picks because I understand a good bit of matchups. And I usually win normals barring the afks and terrible teamates. But when i get a semi decent team I have started to carry pretty hard in normals and still do to some extent in ranked until mid-late game when team picks bad teamfight then it basically throws the game and we all become useless.

dont like ziggs... amumu is fine.

the way you win is snowball early so hard take towers. push all towers and ward the flanks until its 20 mins and they have no towers. then you baron. deep ward there jungle and pink baron.

you wont win over 60% so aim for 60% the 40% is the afks bads etc

I try to but my team just does not understand to take towers and rotate when you have advantage. A good majority of my games are lost by slim margins and I know why I lose. I am very critical of my playing and am always trying to improve. I am a good support and would love to play that if I could get just a decent ADC that can farm okay, trade and freaking know what kiting is.

Get good players and make a pre-made queue. Just master all the secret OP champs. -Redmercy

Honestly I guess this works, but for me trying to get outta bronze. It's not that easy to just master an op champ.

Well i play a good bit of OP champs nothing too broke except xin. but I still play better with my familiar champs. Im just mad i do really well but team throws games cuz they have no idea how to group or when to fight and push a lead.

xin should have no problem in soloq low elo

just deep ward, take tower, back off when they come

when its baron time deep ward into enemy jungle pink baron. soloq more likely to help when its warded

You are bronze.

Bronze is WAAAAY easier to carry than Plat/Diamond. In Bronze the opposition is so bad you can snowball very easily.... just play a snowballer like Akali or (Obviously) Zed.

I dont play either of those. I have picked up diana but still fairly new to her.

Diana is a good pick for snowball.

This is the opposite of what everyone else tells you, but don't play to carry. I mean, if you can that's great, but teamwork comes first. Have faith in your team. 99% of the time, they're trying their hardest, just like you. Also, that thing about your support KSing? A kill's a kill, no matter who gets it. If your farm is good and you already have two kills, there really isn't any problem. Just means the lane's free for you to farm more.
