Thanks anyway
Dukues2 votesThat's a good low elo champion pool. I believe all those champs have a nice win rate in low elo.
I am only gold 5 so can't give you great advice but can give you some things I focused on to get out of bronze/silver. I am very familiar with both bronze & silver so I know how the average play is.
I have a decent win rate with her this season because I know how to stall games. A lot of games we were losing hard but ult can clear minion waves so fast the enemy team could not put pressure on our turrets without taking a lot of damage. Eventually they get frustrated and dive and end up getting aced.
*Look up build guides for the champions you play in their roles. You can take it further to read guides about the position your playing or even more about League of Legends. Knowledge is power in this game. It's strange but the more you learn it's almost like the more you realize you don't know. This game is incredibly complex once you start digging into it. I felt like I knew a lot about the game back when I was stuck in silver forever. Until last year when I finally learned enough to at least hit gold consistently and even though I know more now than I did back then I feel like I know less because of how much more I feel there is still learn if I want to rank higher on the ladder.

- Take a break after losing 2 games in a row to avoid long loss tilt streaks. Mute flammers. You said besides these but... it's important.
- CSing is important. You don't need to be perfect at csing but being able to CS fairly decently is important and will help to win games especially in lower elos.
- Looking at mini map. Paying attention to the mini map can help you see ganks coming if warded or if you see enemy laner missing from a lane for awhile. You can take this another step by trying to predict enemy movements based on where you last saw them and what objectives are up or what lanes are overextended.
- Objectives > kills. In bronze & like silver 3-5 people REALLY love going for kills but get distracted from the bigger picture. Killing inhibitors and turrets = getting closer to killing enemy nexus. And killing the enemy nexus before they kill yours is the only thing that matters. I see a lot of people get like 20 kills and cry about "my team too heavy". Which can be true... but a lot of times I see many times where they carelessly get caught out and die fighting a dumb fight instead of waiting for their teammates to fight and end the game. Them getting caught out = huge advantage for enemy and in the late game is probably a loss.
- Don't overstay. Once your team wins a fight and pushes as hard as they can make sure to leave enemy base once the enemy respawn. So many players end up staying and trying to continue to fight when they low health and end up throwing the game because of how long death timers are in late game.
- Work on rotating and clearing waves. A lot of times (especially in bronze) you see teams after 20 mins just sit middle and basically play ARAM while their bot & top lanes get pushed in. The better option is to either push top or bot if you don't think a fight is about to break out or quickly clear the waves so they start pushing towards the enemy before grouping with your team. Clearing and rotating does many things. 1. it relives pressure the enemy puts on your turrets by forcing minions to push towards them instead. 2. Clearing waves gives you CS which CS = more gold. 3. Without minions enemy can't really siege your base without taking turret shots. So clearing the minions when the enemy is pushing towards your turret reduces the chance they can kill a turret without sacrificing their health. Even though I am really bad at playing
Waaw u are awesome Thank you sooo much If u have time i wanted to ask you one more thing: where can i learn? Streamers? Youtube? Mobafire? I think that is what holds me most in bronze
Hyperiön1 votesWatching streams it how I got to gold. I watched what they did, and tried to copy as best as I could.
Mig891 votesThis guys advice is solid. Waveclear and cs alone can win games in low Elo. It's not so much about outplaying as it is forcing enemies to make dumb mistakes. Ward a ton. Ward. Ward. Ward. Ward some more. Warding gives you free damage at times and sets up picks that win games
Dukues1 votesYoutube actually has many educational videos. Sadly I don't really know the best ones as I hardly even watch them (another reason I am only gold after playing this game forever). Watching streams can help but I find it hard since a lot of streamers play the game but don't really always explain why their doing what their doing. Some do and it doesn't hurt to watch but I have found videos or just reading guides more helpful.
Mobafire is good. I used to read some guides on lolking.net because some authors would go super in depth as to how they play a champion in a role and why they build a certain way. Main problem is...a lot of the guides are old and don't really apply to current patch sometimes. Although, a lot of them still filled with great general knowledge about a champion in a certain role.
For a long time I was using champion.gg as it shows most frequent and highest win rate builds in plat + (well you can actually search by rank) for champions in each role. But it does seem like the site had problems recently as a lot of their win rate information doesn't make sense anymore. It doesn't help understand why someone builds a certain way but is quick way to lookup frequent builds for a champ if just need a quick look. You can also just google a champ in a role and patch number as well and guides pop up. Its not great but... sometimes you can find some quick good builds.
I just started using op.gg for this actually as it seems to stay up to date. You can go into champion analytics and find champs in a certain role and see most frequent builds. Once again, not great for advice on why people build a certain way but a way to quickly lookup frequent builds and players win rates with them.
Mig891 votesConsider ditching Annie and amumu. They rely on their team more than ahri and Warwick so in bronze that's a handicap

Are u sure? All the streamers and youtubers say me to play annie and amumu. Free elo they say
Mig891 votesThere binary and everyone knows how to play against them imo. Listen to the streamers though, they're most likely higher than me. Both the champs just feel one dimensional to me. Ahri and Warwick can be played at any Elo and they can outplay more champs but that's just my opinion
WitchQueen Annie1 votesYou want free lo in Bronze from mid?
If you get how to play him, he can snowball in bronze in lane. Also, late game, he can 1 vs 3 easily.
He's got tons of easy to aim high damage AOE damage, very reliable access to the backline with the right set up, and no mana costs.
UnboundHades1 votesif you want to get out of bronze spam xerath he isn't banned like ever and he is op since low elo people don't understand dodging is a think

I just dont like him sorry i see he can be good but you have to have fun
Effluent1 votesKeep in mind that carrying a team is more than just getting a snowball and getting kills. The entire point of this game is to take down their nexus. If you focus on "carry" champs that can push to the nexus, you'd want...
Mid: Ziggs, Yasuo. Jungle: Diana, Yi
They all shred turrets. While your team is focused on the 1/4 HP Nami running into a blind jungle, you can just shred 2-3 turrets before the other team has time to recall.
Emerald Fang1 votesAdd veigar to the mid pool as a situational pick. I'm in bronze myself and I find that if I'm not against an assassin then Veigar is amazing. Guaranteed late game and ridiculous damage.
Lexyy1 votesI wanted to say Annie, so I guess I agree with you :D
