Honestly it's just not possible.

Last two games, just confirmed what I already know. It's not possible to get out Bronze 5. For every game where you get a good team, you get a horrible team that in-fights, afks, doesn't push, no map awareness ect..... For those people saying I should be able to carry 1 vs 5 in almost all cases. Dumbest crap ever. No logic behind that. What do they the enemy 5 is doing while I am attempting to do that? Waiting for me to do it? Get real!

When I am playing 4 vs 5 and have to go from jg to bot or jg to mid. I will forget some things, but a trinket would have had little effect in that game. Get real. Look up there game history, not just mine!

Yeah wards are useless in games. Got it.

"Excuses are like assholes, everyone has them" but no seriously man. Stop focusing on everyone else's mistakes and start looking at your own. If you can grow as a player, you will rank up. You may not think so because you are still focused on the idea that having a feeding teammate means you lose by default. But if you start thinking about all the little things you could've done better, you could probably get out of bronze 5 within a week.

Example: 1) its no big deal i dont have a trinket, they have little effective in the game. -Wrong, if you have an upgraded yellow trinket + a pink ward thats 3 wards you can have on the map all the time for pretty much the cost of upgrading your trinket for 250 gold.. More vision = less people getting caught.

  1. My CS sucks, but at least everyone else's does too. -Wrong, they have shitty CS because they belong in their division, If you honestly think you are better than these bronze 5 players. You will out CS them, It is important. EVEN if every1 else in the game is sucking at it, YOU have to bet the better player and have more.

3)I missed my ult, but its okay so did my teammate in a previous team fight. -Wrong, If you wan't to win the game, dont make these mistakes. Don't make excuses or try to justify your feelings by comparing them to someone else on your team. YOU made the mistake, you are equally at fault for the loss.

4)I'm fed and i tried to make a big play but failed but its okay my team is feeding they are lucky to have me and should cut me some slack: Wrong-, I could be 25-2-15 in a game while the rest of my team is struggling, it is MY job to carry them since I have the farm, if I fuck up, I could cost the team the game. Regardless of how well my team is doing or not, they are depending on me to use my gold wisely, so don't be careless once you obtain a lead.

I Know you didn't say anything about 3 of these points, but I know people do it all the time, I went on tilt, went from s2 to s5 in 1 night, my MMR was so trash i was getting 11LP a win and losing 29LP, I was playing with bronze 4 players in a few of my games I KNOW what it's like. Think about these points.. Think about yourself.. And don't worry about your teamates mistakes. You guys all make an equal amount of mistakes, that is why you are all in the same ELO. Think of your rank as the amount of mistakes you make rather than how good you are. The higher the rank you hare, the less mistakes YOU make.

You get the trinket at the very start of the game. You rarely even realize that your team has an AFK until everyone else has left the base, so thta's not an excuse.

You are the only player in the game you can control.

Attempting to place all of the blame on your teammates isn't going to help you improve.

Dalenthas4 votes

Statistically speaking, if you're awesome and never troll or disconnect, then you should win more than half of your games. Your team has 4 people who could possibly troll or disconnect (because you never do, right?), while the enemy team has 5 people who could. No, you're not going to carry 1v5. But the chances that all 5 enemy team members are better than all 4 of your team mates is fairly low, especially since matchmaking tries its best to balance out the teams. You only have to be good enough to make up the difference in skill level. Or, even better, foster an environment where teamwork and vision control win out against superior skill (yes, it happens). Bronze is full of people who don't know how to close out games, who go hunting through the jungle for the last man alive rather than just taking out inhibitors (or the Nexus), and by the time they've gotten the last person (if they even do), the rest of the team has respawned and is ready to defend the objective. Don't be that guy, know when it's better to take objectives, know what objectives you should take (In rough order of importance: Nexus, Inhibitors, Towers, Baron, Dragon, Red Buff, Blue Buff, Scuttle Crab; obviously situations will change this).

The most important thing? It is better for 5 people to follow a bad plan than for 2 people to follow one plan and 3 people to follow another. Yes, even split pushing requires the rest of your team to be in on it. If there's no pressure in the other lanes, if the enemy team doesn't lose anything for sending 4 people to kill you, then you will die repeatedly for little to no gain.

if you dont buy wards, then that a big issue. Wards are everything. Wards can change a simple enemy gank, to a ace.

What? you said how to escape and I'm saying wards can help change fights. For example you might go into a bush and get killed by their team, but if its warded you can stay alive and avert a disaster. Wards help by changing events that could be deadly.

Well, I get on winning streaking and then an afk or a troll comes along and kills that. Good for you that you avoided that.

I haven't avoided that every time. It happens. if it does, try and win, still. Don't give up. If you lose, forget about it, and try again next time. don't let that get stuck in your head as most games don't involve trolls or afks. Only a few.

You need to do it. It's that attitude that makes it very hard to come back with an open mind in your next game. This causes someone that dies early twice in your next game to instantly think "feeder" and have a bad attitude right away.

This thread gave me a good laugh, a bronze 5 player complaining about his teammates, looked you up, you build wrong, dont ward, I have a feeling you dont understand map pressure, objective control, cooldowns, list goes on, the fact that you deny other factors other than kills contributing to the game just shows how naive your attitude is, there are many things in game that change who will win and lose other than kills, kills just make it easier, you also refuse to learn champions that dominate your elo, and dont want to take tips from people who are a higher elo than you, so this is just a bronzie rant thread, do us a favor and keep it to yourself.

Warding has nothing to do with afks! Drop it! It won't help a numbers advantage. especially if I can't roam freely. So shut up!

Radnar the bold1 votes

Then go make four friends and play with a team! geez if you hate people are are SUCH a good player, then go look at the team recuitments, join a team, make friends and play with them. If your team sucks then go and make a team with people you know and can rely on! Jesus, if teamates are your issue then the answer is simple. People are giving you advice and you just say "shutup Im better than you and you dont understand this game". Wards do matter, stop saying then dont mean anything. Afks happen, go make a team or join one. I think I repeated what to do so go do that! find a fricken Team.

Literally the sooner any player goes "Wow, my team realllllly fucked up there, sej missed her ult, Miss Fortune got caught", etc etc etc, and stops and says "BUT, i could have done this better and this and this and this, ward here so she doesnt get caught, understand where the next fight on the map is, land my CC, dont mess up my combo" like literally blame yourself not your team, because you are never gonna play with those people again. Focus on your own play.

Hes is pulling a halo "wow 1v1 you noob" trick which worked for halo when everyone had the same gun and charcter and thats were you could see who was better. But in this game with many champs who have a counter to one another? 1v1 solve nothing.

In Bronze?

When any semi-good Gold/Platinum steps into a Bronze match, the match ends in the champion select.

The problem with solo carrying begins in high Gold, when there's more than one good player and they basically nulify each other. Saying you can't carry in Bronze is laughable at best.

Sorry, but that's truth you need to accept.

No, you are stuck because, to be frank, you are ass at this game.

You have a bad attitude more then likely, suck yourself (those builds......), and probably flame whenever your jungler doesnt gank, or blame bad warding 100% on the support.

Bronze > Silver 3 is basic shit. Even if your team is ass, the enemy team is also ass, because its bronze. Only shitters are in b5 in the first place.

"Elo Hell", which is what you seem to be trying to reference, is most prominently silver 5 - low gold.

Why? Because some players will know the basics (which you seem to lack), meaning that if you get a rager/troll/afk on your team, or even someone who legit sucks shit, the enemy team will capitalize on that.

In b5, its literally chickens running around with there heads cut off. Even smurfs wont be found there, unless they purchased an account to get that low, or threw 10 placements (which wont always land them in b5 anyways).

If you are half decent, you will easily climb to at least s5.
