I mean I duo with a person that is in bronze 4. Though sometimes we play against silvers. And a lot we play against smurfers. And I do pretty good against them but any tips would be nice. I play supp, and he plays adc. The person I duo with communicate really well, because we play sitting right next to each other in the same room. Lol

Turn fundamental skills into habits. Wards everywhere, the mentality to protect your teammates over yourself, making sure your ADC is never alone with an enemy threat, working with the Jungler and ADC to maintain dragon control (literally the only reason why you and your ADC are bot instead of top), and finally, knowing how to properly help your team during tower sieges.

Are you wanting tips for getting to level 30 quicker? As far as I know there really isn't a way to level faster without buying experience boosts. Just play and you'll get to level 30 pretty quickly. Nothing really changes at 30 anyway besides being able to play ranked.

Or are you looking for tips to improve your game play? Ward well, learn to call mias and focus on only 1 or 2 champions for each role and really master them.

I would recommend looking up guides for your favorite champs and tips and tricks in general. They usually show you the intricate details of champions that might take you an extra 30 games to figure out.

Other than that focus on the basics. Farming is extremely important, learn how to farm well when ahead in lane, from behind in lane, under tower etc. Look up a guide for warding to tell you the best spots to ward and then practice warding those spots in game and keeping an eye on them. Once you get more advanced look up how to freeze waves and how to slow push waves to create pressure.

have fun. if you dont get too stressed out, youll continue to want to play, grinding up that xp if youre struggling against a champ, its always good to play them and learn their kit. youll be more familiar with their cooldowns and their engages, way easier to play against. :0)

In my opinion, if you're a low elo/lvl or just have little experience with the game or the dynamics of botlane, it's better to go a non-conventional botlane -cough cough- (Mordekaiser) and someone like Blitzcrank, Trundle, Soraka, etc. All of these champions have fantastic synergy with Mordekaiser/other melee/nontraditional carries. The reasoning behind this is because botlane is probably the most nuanced role in the game, basically meaning that there are a lot of rules/mechanics/playstyles you need to familiarize yourself with to get the maximum effectiveness out of a traditional ranged carry botlane. When you play a nontraditional/melee carry suchs as Morde, a lot of those dynamics/nuances are largely irrelevant due to the fact that you should be able to win most lanes due to brute force (given your opponents are not highly experienced with playing botlane). Also, familiarize yourself with the best spots to use pink wards, the best spots for green wards, sweepers, etc. Never forget to upgrade/swap out your trinkets when necessary (swapping out ward trinket for sweeper when you obtain your Sightstone, upgrading your sweeper later on). Familiarize yourself with the best situational items for your scenario, for example, if the enemy team has a lot of mitigatable CC that can potentially be dangerous for your carry, you would want item 3222, if they have a lot of magic dmg, it would be best to opt for item 3105, etc. etc.

Also one last tip for supporting. item 3190 is BUSTED. As long as the enemy team has at least 1 AP threat whatsoever, it's generally a good idea to grab a Locket sometime throughout the game. Don't rush it (unless they have more heavy magic dmg) but definitely try to prioritize it relatively early because the shield it gives and its gold efficiency is just phenomenal and can potentially be a huge fight changer, especially when coupled with item 3401 or item 3050.

Good luck.

EDIT: Forgot to mention botlane synergy. Synergy goes an extremely long way in the botlane. Picking the right champions can nearly win you your lane by default (I'm looking at you Lucian and Braum.

Honestly just have fun with the game till you hit lvl 30. Try new champs and positions, then start getting serious when you hit 30. find 2 positions you feel is good for then play those positions as often as possible.
