Who do I play to get out of bronze?

CauseSCIENCE·3/16/2019, 9:04:22 AM·1 votes·3,694 views

I'm basically hardstuck and sick of it. Looking for a champion to climb out with. I play kench top and swain mid, and I can play them pretty well, but I can't carry with them. Criteria:

  • Mildly to majorly braindead hypercarry. e.g. yi

  • Not banned every other game. e.g. not yasuo

  • Can be played top or mid.

Any suggestions thanks.

Swain is a good pick to get out of bronze with, you just have to understand his trading patterns and the game as a whole. You average almost 10 deaths a game. You have very low cs numbers on average. If you work on those 2 things you will easily get out of bronze on those things alone.

Some swain specific tips- I like to start e level 1, e the entire wave, try to get priority on the wave, then trade hard level 2 when I have more minions. Also, if you're post 6 and someone misses a key skillshot(ahri charm) just E W R and try to run them down, because you will win the trade.

Anyone you want to. That's the correct answer; every champion wins games far above Bronze, so every champion can get out of Bronze. You get out of Bronze if you get better at the game.

Play Zilean. You are inately less likely to feed.

Less feeding = more winning.

I'm dead seriously btw. You deny the enemy team gold just by using your ulti. You grant XP to your on team. He's not fun... he's not crazy powerful... but he makes up for bronzie mistakes your team makes by giving them extra xp, aa free GA, makes them faster to make them dodge better, or slows enemies to make them easier to hit.

He's the perfect "make your team suck less" champ.

Also I'd really look into picking up support. Gives you a lot more time to focus on making sure your adc isn't ass... while not donating gold yourself. In Iron/Bronze a lot bot lane is GG. Basically leaves you with 3/5 useful champs.

Climbing is less about the champion and more about choosing your playstyle and getting good at it. I used to be a good Lee Sin player mechanically but would always throw my lead because I didn't understand how to close out a game. If you want to climb you need to find out what kind of champions you prefer playing, what those champions need in order to do their job, and then become good at doing that. You can play as many hyper carries as you like but if you try to 1v5 when the enemy team is full item build it doesn't matter of you have 40 kills, you'll still get blown up. Just remember this: The goal of the game is to get a lead and then use that lead to snowball into a further lead and close out the game before the enemy team can make a comeback. Don't farm kills for your KDA when you can kill your opponent and take 1st tower for global gold. Don't chase a low health target through an unwarded jungle when you can grab an infernal drake. Don't sit in a bush waiting to cheese for 5 minutes when your enemy is farming safely and getting a level advantage on you.

Vladimir , nobody knows how to kill you in lane in bronze, you farm up, possibly get kills in lane, then aram mid lane and win teamfights with your aoe damage. Not exactly the most mechanically difficult champion, but not exactly braindead either.

To climb as an adc you just have to be good at ADC. As long as you know how to position in team fights and can dominate lane you will be fine. Champ doesn't really matter but strong ADC's for the meta always help.

To climb as a support play carries like lux, brand, zyra, velkoz, etc. You can't rely on your bronze team to carry, you gotta do it yourself.

To climb mid Play good ap carries, or one trick assassins. Leblanc, zed, and katarina. Somone who can snowball and have a huge impact on other lanes

To climb jungle Play Yi. Bronze players have no clue how to stop a fed yi. Or play rammus, nunu, and hecarim. Tanky, crowd control, really fast.

To climb talk play good split push champions. Nasus, yorick, tryndamere. Bronze players really struggle to stop good sp

you go get a job for like 2 hours and get an elobooster with the salary

in the end for less time and energy spent/wasted you get to the point you want without losing your mind to it and with a professional experience as bonus.

100% worth.

Well its simple it dosnt matter. You could play what ever you want and get out of bronze. on my smurf at one point i won a match with 27 kills as adc ahri. Just practice getting at least 6-8 cs/min (though 10 is idea that should be good enough for bronze) and learn more about macro and map plays. No really theres hundreds of videos on youtube i remember when i used to be silver there was a searies called how to bronze i used to watch that helped with basics. Also not 100% nessicairy but watch lcs sometimes. Alot of it wont be 100% nessicairy but you do learn about some things and why theyre important like setting up vision in certian areas at certian times and i forget what match it was but years ago i learned you can reduce the armour / mr of scuttle by knocking it up or stunning it and so on by like -50. i never knew that but its a think and it makes clearing jungle slightly faster. Just focus on improving on how you play over all and youll be able to win on w.e you want to play. Its only when you get to higher elo (im only plat on main so im not there yet) that champion choice begins to matter. That said pay attention to your comps. If you have no tanks/frontline dont take teemo top. If the enemy has 3 tanks a zhonyas user and an adc that gets a stopwatch then a ga dont take an assasian. Its all situational so imo just look around for places to actually improve

Play every game with the goal of not being the reason your team loses. That means you focus mostly on not feeding, especially in the early game. From there you just do what you can to help your team win. Over course of multiple games, you would naturally get a win rate higher than 50% which means you will climb. The reason it works is because the odds are skewed in your favor. There are 5 chances for feeding on the enemy team but only 4 for your team because you will NEVER be the one that goes 0-5 in lane.

Swain Urgot are my failsafe blind picks that feel good against just about everything.

Brand can be played in any lane if you're good and has substantial kill power.

Riven is carrying hard in high ELO right now, though I don't play her.

All are 1v3/1v4 hypercarries if fed and ahead in levels, and I would argue can be played top/mid if good enough, though Brand is not seen as a toplaner, nor Riven a mid, so be prepared for static if you take these roles. I would argue they're better than people think as off-meta picks and that all of these champions are among the game's better hypercarries as of the time of this writing's patch.

I wouldn't recommend 1v5s to anybody in any circumstance in League. Work with your team no matter what. That's really how you get out of the lowest ELOs.

Top/mid is a hard one.

Vladimir, swain, lissandra, ryze? Those are about your choices.

You were Silver last season. Just do whatever you did last season to get out of Bronze.

You play support to get out of Bronze. Lux, MF, Kayle, Morgana, Vel'Koz, Nami, Braum are good picks.

ContDeCaterinca13/16/2019, 10:36:25 AM1 votes

Play Garen and ban Vayne/Darius(Teemo shouldn't be a problem in Bronze). I am dead serious.

Or go jungle and play Warwick . I have such an easy time stomping with these 2 champions.

Mid I have no idea, but I like Brand.

Yi jungle, mute all, win game because comps in bronze can't handle you.

You don't really need to know how to jungle because all Yi does is farm, steal farm, maybe get a free cleanup or two, then farm some more. Then 1v5

Stop looking at what champion will get you out of bronze and look more at your play in general. How you play the game and your decision making are far more important than what champ you play.
