Getting out of Bronze Is easy

I just want to give a small guide to players that believe they shouldn't be bronze. I started the game the beginning of season 3, and it was tough at first, I have played RTS games in my past but the champion learning curve took me a bit. Once you know what champions do what is the first step in improving your game. So I am going to lay down the 5 steps to getting out of bronze.

Step 1.) Know what champions are capable of what, including what champions are capable of snowballing, and how to deny that opportunity. EXAMPLE: Bronze wukong goes 10-0( THE GAME IS NOT OVER) If you as a player can direct your team to group and you can position properly any champion can be shut down.) Bronze Irelia goes 10-0 and they build correctly you are probably f u c ... you get the point. Step 2.) Creep score means everything. If you go 0-1 or even 0-3 in lane but you have 60 more Cs than the enemy, you have not necesarilly lost your lane. But to truly get out of bronze you should never lose your lane. Or no offence you belong in bronze. Step 3.) Carry your team! Yes there are trolls in bronze, kids that die twice and say AFK. OKAY, well I've found more often than not if you prove to that nerd that you have a chance at winning they will come back and play. ( This still happens in silver, I just played a game where zed lost mid to akali, akali ended the game at 21-14, but I teleport ganked with gnar multiple times bot lane and our ezreal carried the game. one lane means nothing, I've Actually won games where the score was 26-3 because one player never gave up. Think of it this way, your team is raging at each other, chances are if you start to come back the enemy team will rage at eachother just as hard.) Step 4.) The game is not about kills, I've carried myself from bronze 5 to silver on 2 accounts now, knowing that the enemy bronze players are running around trying to stack their KDA higher, meanwhile I just took two towers bot lane or top. Objectives are the main deciding factors of the game, objectives mean map control, and this season objectives mean team damage and pushing power. Step 5.) Have fun, dont be toxic, dont fuel the fire, the one deciding factor in every game, okay not deciding factor because no matter what you do games will be lost occasionally, but the one constant in every game is your own ability. ONLY YOU can control what you do, only you can make sure that you win your lane, and only you can rally your team if they are down, because some players need a player to take the reigns and tell them what to do. I am only silver 2 on both of my accounts and at times i don't even take my own advice, because I do fuel the fire at times, because lets face it after a 3 game tilt you may get pissed off. Just do your best to not go there and try hard GL AND HF

The problem with moving up through Bronze-Gold. There a ton of people who don't care or are on smurfs trying to ruin everyones games. And when you rely on having 60%+ WR to even move a single tier you get bottlenecked. I had a 52-54% WR but did not move past silver this season. Logically if I am winning more games than losing I am not in the right place especially in over 300 games.

The only problem with the ranked systems is it traps people who do not deserve to be where they are in their rank. I am a lot better in the game this season and when you play against people who were your skill level last season and lose simply because they have 3k gold on you there isn't anything you can do. If Yi has 2-3k gold on you as ADC you are done.

As much as you can make guides to move up through elos it doesn't solve the innate problems actual skilled players have.

So how exactly can you efficiently learn what all champs can do quickly? I feel that this is a "time and experience" issue here. Everything else I completely agree with you. item 3060

Well I started week one of season 3 and made it to silver 1 by the end of the season, I had RTS experience that was the first key, I learned fast things like dont chase singed, and even faster what champions like Kat can do if you feed her, it is a time and experience thing but I think within 6 months. As I really didnt start climbing until near the end of the season.

I also have way too much free time on my hands so 6 months for me can mean years for others I guess. I think when I started playing this game I played 3-4 hours every day after my second shift job.

I find that to be true for silver Jefftiffy, but for bronze if you cant get out its something you're doing. Thats why I didnt make a guide saying how to get to gold because I honestly have no idea I have a 51% win rate over around 600 games in silver and I'm stuck also. Its a pain in my ass thats why I want a full MMR reset from riot
