From bronze 1 to bronze 4 in one week

Ambient Snow·May 11, 2017·2 votes·851 views

I don't know how people do it. I seriously I have on freaken clue how people climb in this Cesspool of toxic, trolling pit of despair.

15 games in a week and All of them filled, with Int feeders, People who don't know how to play their champs, Hard core ragers, Afkers and so on. I just don't get it. I stay positive I ward I just fill positions even trade positions in champ select if some one prefers some thing else. but Jesus none of that seems to fix any thing.

I just don't know what else to do now. at one point I was +50 games now i'm Barely breaking even? I don't know what happened in bronze one but man after I hit that marker its just been nothing but odds stacked against me I mean I don't mind losing heck if I get out played Cool

but losing cause some one afks for no reason or people feed intentionally or people just abandoned their lane after a tower is lost or what not holy smokes

i'm about ready to beg a plat smurf to carry me.

Doesn't change. Went from Diamond 2 to Diamond 5, then went on 22 loss spree. Game is just shit.

Kids just feed lane, even in diamond, then cry in all chat "open", then spam ff votes when I win lane.

Ugh that sucks but kinda notice. you would expect by bronze 2-1 you would get team who would at least know the basics.. I still get games where Not even the support wants to ward the jungles or bushes and yells at the ADC to buy wards cause. he doesn't earn gold to afford wards since he's not taking farm

Xion The XIVMay 11, 20171 votes

Main Nasus or Vayne to carry you out. In bronze it is straight 1v9 situation so you need someone who can kill everyone.

QuickenedBladeMay 11, 20171 votes

Those are scaling champs. If you don't get the chance to scale you lose. You'd be trying to get an early lead while playing at a disadvantage

Games in bronze go forever because no one knows how to take objectives and close out a game.

QuickenedBladeMay 11, 20171 votes

tru

it's honestly a hit or miss. Depends on how good you are at the game. I had a bronze friend spam talon games and now he's Silver 3.

Xion The XIVMay 11, 20171 votes

Yea, but you have to think Bronze players barely know how to take towers. Even in Plat/Gold/Silver you will constantly loose games, because people decide to camp fountain to have higher KDA or just screw around for a better KDA. I remember and I still have the picture the score was 38 us and 57 them. They decided to boost their KDA and loss the game.

Ambient SnowMay 11, 20171 votes

that is true. I don't know how many times I ping for a dragon take after we kill enemy jungle and bot lane and no one comes. They just back buy and then 3 min later bam enemy takes the dragon.

QuickenedBladeMay 11, 20172 votes

In diamond, you start to not even see golds as real people. Plats are monkeys with keyboards aka shiny silver.

Bronze is where all the people who don't know how to play are. My dad is in bronze 2 and he has like 10% win rate

I had to make a new acct to get out of bronze. Easiest way to get out of bronze is to spam shit like Fizz/Annie

I still have most wards placed/purchased while I play mid lane. Kids are shit at the game till you hit D1-Challenger

Why would you expect anything decent in Bronze? You don't even need your team in Bronze, you can solo carry super hard with practually anything.

Ambient SnowMay 11, 20171 votes

not exactly cause you gotta remember if your team suchs that 2-3-4 people on their team carrying while you're the only one.. I get your point team work is kinda a forbidden word in bronze but yea..

yea that's pretty much how I feel right now. I mean I just don't know.. last game I had a draven after 40 min only finished one item Said he was going crit build with 0 damage just crit items. then when it became obvious his build sucked.

" oh i'm sorry guy smy brother is using skype with his GF and its making me lag" all the while

GP is mass pinging for help cause he's getting owned up top.. by pantheon and our Jungle fiddle sticks keeps dying every time he ganks or well attempts to

I had a Xayah with this as her final build item 3812 item 3046 item 3047

guess how much damage he did

Pre rework Aatrox jungle with Guinsoos carried me out of bronze

heres my personal hint: Play your main, win your lane all the way to their base and carry as often as you can. only works in bronze tho

ShahamutMay 11, 20171 votes

Silver 2 has always been my "sespool to wade through". It's bronze, it's time to learn how to snowball a game, because it's not going to be easier as you climb. You will still get crappy teams.

Keep at it.

DryditchMay 11, 20171 votes

I dropped from B1 promos to B5 in under three days. That was several months ago.

I can't even blame it on bad players because I was testing new champions the entire time.

Find champs that for you in the current meta. You'll climb again.

DrCyanideMay 11, 20171 votes

I don't know why anyone would play Ranked in low elo the week the Mid Season update came out, that's just asking for trouble.

HallbusterMay 11, 20171 votes

Not all games are winnable: You can win the game 80% of the time playing mid, 70% of the time playing top, 60% of the time playing ADC, 50% of the time playing jungle, and 0% of the time playing support.

And by win, I mean "win the game" regardless of the circumstances. Including feeding, AFK, trolls, and flamers.

You have a really good Jinx win rate and yet you don't play Jinx. Why?
Sona's very strong against people that suck at the game. Play Sona perhaps?
You play Maoki support with no Sightstone and act like you deserve the W. Build vision.

3.5) What the hell are these items ON Maoki support? You don't build a single support item save FQC. The hell?

Where the hell is your Locket? You never build what's pretty much the most broken active in the game.
Stop playing Rakan. Too difficult for Bronze players.
Galio doesn't carry games. He's akin to Poppy in that regard. So honestly...don't play Galio.
Stop building Swifties on support/marksman champs.
Don't play Elise. Carrying with Elise is mad difficult, even if it's possible by the book. She falls off rather hard and it's easy for her to lose her lead.
Build a Sightstone in EVERY game you support. Stop with this "Because I'm not Rakan, I'm not building Sightstone" thing.
Why the hell are you playing AD Sona while complaining about being Bronze 4!?

Then you want a smurf to carry you when you're this heavy?

Ambient SnowMay 12, 20171 votes

Love how you act like you were there.

Answers to 3 and 3.5 maokai support had to be adjusted cause our adc. just abandoned bottom lane.. in-fact. She started roaming mid and fed mid some kills .. Then never came bottom again. I had to switch to a AP build for him cause I was having to clear waves and pretty much solo 1v2. the entire team was upset with our adc for just abandoning bottom lane and never coming back. in fact we all reported them for trolling cause of it

actually I got a pretty good win rate with Rakan, just normally I get adcs that love to shoot tank first.. the game you're probably referring to with Rakah. Tell my adc to stop shooting Sejiquana might be a great start especially when I knock up exhaust and have their adc almost dead and they sit there.. still shooting the tank seujiana.
I've carried many games with galio his ult is great.. the problem is when you get tanks who refuse to initiate. or ramus's that are to afraid to go in so I can ult on top of him. and get some great set ups for our team.
I will agree. Galio takes a team to carry I shouldn't play him in a game where i'm not queued up with others in regards to communicatin and help
I prefer swift boots, cause its easier to kite with Xayah. people chase and if I can keep a head line up feathers line up some great returns.

8 I like elise and i'm good at skill shots and usually wen I play her I get no complains from my team members cuase they usually capitalize but I can look into other jungles I suppose.

9 . umm usually when i'm rakan I build a sight stone. infact usually when I support I drops wards every where and have no problem buying the red wards

umm AD sona.. oh I play her now and then. shes not bad but its usually when i'm playing with friends cause they know how to capitalize with it.. shrug I like how you comment on " when you're that heavy" its like you have visually witnessed every single game you commented on like you were there!

Doesn't make a difference to what I said. Just because you aren't aiming to use your items for the adc doesn't mean you shouldn't get any support items INCLUDING SIGHT STONE in the support role.

No you don't. 4/10 ranked win rate. Just don't bother on him. I'm being honest.

I've carried many games with galio his ult is great.. the problem is when you get tanks who refuse to initiate. or ramus's that are to afraid to go in so I can ult on top of him. and get some great set ups for our team.

GALIO ISN'T A CARRY CHAMP. He's a defensive tank that's strong early and falls back on peeling and more reactive play as the game progresses. Real carries go for offense as the game progresses.

I prefer swift boots, cause its easier to kite with Xayah. people chase and if I can keep a head line up feathers line up some great returns.

Stop. Building. Swifties. Berserkers give more damage output, which is what marksmen need. You're trading that for only 10 MS?

9 . umm usually when i'm rakan I build a sight stone. infact usually when I support I drops wards every where and have no problem buying the red wards

You didn't built vision on any support other than Rakan when I first checked your op.gg. NEVER skip Sightstone. Period.

umm AD sona.. oh I pl

I don't need to read more than that on that note.

Like, I'ma give you what my friends gave me 2 years ago when I was Bronze 3: When you're Bronze, you're bad. There's no "Eh, ya know, I just need muh team to"...yeah none of that. Bronze, especially low Bronze, is reserved for the worst players out there. You're Bronze 5. You gotta either take some advise and try to move up or just sit where you are.

Ambient SnowMay 12, 20171 votes

that lines just a load of crap.. Seriously you don't need your team.. why is it people seem to refuse to understand that you're team has to be able to play their part. well you should carry.

ok I can carry that's fine, but when the enemy team has multiple carries cause your lanes failed and it works vice versa there is nothing you can do

fine last game 23-5 with Xayah rocking there team what happens end game.. the enemy Graves and enemy kat just steam rolled us what was the kicker?

I have a olaf jungle who spent all game in the enemy jungle trolling never once did he help or what not he would just collect the enemy buffs go to a lane. and get killed and say " ugh Lag."

Yes there is truth to what you say play a Carry champion that makes it harder for the enemy team to come back from you're right on that aspect. but if your team can't capitalize on the carry that you give, then there is nothing you can do.

I can hand my team 5 towers down and every dragon buff. But if my team refuses to group up for end game team fights or refuses to do any thing that relates to team work then guess what you will lose a majority of the times.

Fine sight stone you're right rechecked my games and you're right I need to make sure I grab that every time.

as for the rest of the jibber champions on what champions to use. do I need to broaden my pool probably yes. fine but ok I don't use galio every time I don't use elise every time, shes just a fall back jungler if I have to go a AP jungle.

should I try some one different like sej or amumu I suppose I can look into those.

Update so I dropped down to Bronze 5.. still can't get a win. low how riot sends me a pop up " Tell Us about your Experience with this game this past week"

its like -.- horribly negative. Every team Is just a bunch of ragers and toxic people feeding afking and trolling. was I suppose to say its been great?

I love how i'm on a great win streak then that last update hit and its like BAM all my teams have just been absolutely cesspools

HallbusterMay 13, 20171 votes

Took a look at your match history, and I think I know why you're not climbing. Take this with a grain of salt, I'm bronze as well even though I stopped playing ranked.

1.) Your CS numbers are sub par. You're getting 100 CS in 20 minutes half the time. This is barely half the number of available CS. Considering you could, at most get, 101 CS in 9:35.

2.) Too many roles, and too many champions. Broadening your pool isn't the solution, it's the problem. You should only **play ** one role if you want to climb(god forbid, autofill decides to give you something else) and at most, 3 champions. I have taken some high Elo's advice and one trick Vladimir. Which is relatively speaking, using one champion to climb exclusively by spamming a champion in a ton of games until you know everything about your champion, inside and out.

3.) This expands on number 2 but relatively speaking, simple champions are better for climbing. I only play Annie(support), Vladimir(mid or top), and Mundo(jungle) now. All three champions have relatively low skill caps and once mastered doesn't require any additional effort aka mistakes.

4.) I'm not going to go in depth about runes and masteries since they're far less important in low Elo's but building and counter building is. You "build" if the matchup is favorable or even and counter - build if it's against you or once you fall behind. If I'm fighting Yasuo as a sustain mage, say xerath, the first item I'm going to rush is a seekers armguard. If it's the other way around and I'm now playing Yasuo against Annie, there's no way to win lane playing Yasuo if I don't rush a negatron cloak.

Why would I tell you your points are bad you have valid points.

CS hard to farm CS really in low elo not cause its hard to last hit issue is, you win the lane to fast. There are times I take enemy tower down before i'm even level 5 then i'm off roaming ganking other lanes and killing for the next 20 minutes. to finish the fight. you try to farm at those points and you get flamed (think its a bronze thing)
Honestly cause I fill. I don't try to main a lane or two.. if I do its usually mid (leblanc/kat/syndra) or Adc * (Xayah, Jinx,MF ) But honestly I get tired of listening to people cry all the time so I will filter into Fill cause I usually offer to trade a lot this does cause the huge job pull because i'm adjusting usually to my teams comp example last pick Top goes Gp, mid goes, talon, bottom goes Trist, and support is Sona.. Well now we have 0 tanks and no ap so I go a Ap.. Or vice versa with AD.. I try to pick a champion that will fill the role and give our team diversity besides going an all AD or all AP team.
that is true I know annie and some othes have a high reward when picked in bronze I need to get back to using her
and I agree counter building is key in ranked. I usually get hurricane and Infinity as my first items for base damage. after that I adjust it to see whats going on. Do they have a high HP tank do I need Dominiques or do they have a mundo and I need to build mortal reminder. I completely understand that and 100% agree.

I used to be gold 4 years ago I stopped playing for 3 years after all my friends quit due to just the community and just tired of playing the game ( mostly at that time when I quit Riot was also Getting DDos'ed every other day and game became unplayable some times for weeks)

Hmmmmm, I guess you are right. There is one point I would like to bring up however. When you are constantly roaming. You miss gold and xp that you would have gotten from your farm lane or jungle. I am not saying you should not roam early but always make sure your lane is pushed to their tower and you are certain you can get kills to compensate for missed time.

Also destroying the first tower too early has a drawback. Missed CS

Ambient SnowMay 14, 20171 votes

That I totally agree but I don't have much say when your jungle does a gank at the 6 min mark and you get a double kill then your jungle and Support are just blasting the tower down.

but I think that's more of a Bronze mentality win your lane super fast.
