I feel like telling people to just "Carry yourself" out of bronze/silver is leading to bad teams:

Surely with this much OP broke cheese freelo a team can win right? Well not really, as I've become painfully aware people don't understand team fight dynamics, champion roles, or really anything about this game other then "there are three lanes, I'm suppose to last hit minions, ADC goes bot." Instead folks down here assume "Hey I need to carry, everyone else is terrible, so I'm going to take my carry champion," so what you end up with is 4 carries and a squishy support who either snowball off, or simply fail. Even when they snowball off they probably won't group and trying to 1v4 the enemy team until they piddle away any advantage they had.

So I'm just going to say, tanks and front-lines win games. Not carries. And for the love of god if your adc is fed protect them!

you can split push all game and end a silver game in 15 minutes

At least in my corner of low Bronze, the tanks and front liners are not even remotely better. Some games they'll bother to set up and the others will bother to follow up, but I wouldn't say they win any more than the meta team. This is why I implement the 500 Elo "farm til you're OP" strategy.

The only people who say to carry yourself out are those who duoed with somebody gold and up before rank restrictions and got carried themselves

Take Yi out of that equation and change it for Lee Sin. Carry yourself out of Bronze.

I have to agree, even at plat/diamond generally the team with the beefier front line takes the win.

Especially with the likes of Azir and Zed, who are very good at getting into a team and dealing damage. You can't janna ult Azir's soldiers/wall and Zed is Zed.

Those are the two big ones but really if your team is pure squish with no utility anyone with good burst and/or CC is going to tear you up. I was like 10/1/4 on Corki but I could not contribute to fights because I always had an azir or trundle on my face. Our team was incapable of doing anything about it though because litterally every lane was a squishy carry type. Top Teemo, Jungle Yi, Mid Yasuo. The teemo beat trundle in lane sure, but you know what? Trundle got tanky and at 25 minutes simply didn't care anymore.
