If you were in bronze 5, 0LP, losing 25 LP each defeat and winning 15 each victory, support main...

Do you think you could get out of bronze on your own? Are you man enough?

Also bear in mind its the depths of elo hell. When bot or top goes to mid they take mid farms, supports take the adc farm sometimes, there is toxicity and rage everywhere. some people never take flash your adc goes ignite or tp, people actually pick clarity.

If your MMR is that bad, there's probably a reason for it.

If you are better than bronze, you will win more than you lose, and even with 25 loss, 15 gain, over time it would readjust to 15 loss, 25 gain as you continue to win, assuming you really are better than bronze.

Division and LP are an illusion. The only number that actually matters is MMR, which changes based on win/loss. If you're losing more than you're winning, its not because of your team. Its because you can stand to improve relative to the MMR you're in.

Test of character aside, if you are better, you will climb. Its simple as that. Both sides have equal chances of bronze happenings in each player...if your team having 20% less chance of having a bad player isn't enough to cause you to win more than you lose, you just need to improve.

20% even as someone like soraka, janna or nami? Do you think you can still do it?... Personally I play support and I win lane but sometimes top mid and jungle fed so its an uphill battle to remain relevant, I dont want to imagine how would it be in bronze 5 where you cant really count on the skills of your teammates

If you main support in bronze, play more aggressive ones. Thresh, Blitz, Alistar, Braum, Taric, etc. Hell, even go for kill lanes with Zed, Xin, Irelia, J4, Talon, etc, specifically because your ADC may not be that reliable. Its bronze. Literally anything works if you're better than them.

Bronze players often do not know when to play offensive/defensive. Abuse that, then abuse their map awareness (hence the kill lane picks being viable in bronze).

Another option is simply moving out of support until you start winning a little. Starting at the lowest common denominator for a role is a great way to climb because it allows you to grow in another dimension that you have little experience in, and if you start improving that way, you will quickly pick up steam and get to an MMR you can consistently play your main in and win again. Plus you have the benefit of having another role you can pivot on at your typical MMR.

Definitely. I got seeded into B5 and climbed out of B5 as a support main. (B4 now, woo.) The main reason why I don't play ranked that much is because I find it more fun to queue with friends in Normal/ARAM/Game Mode.

I think it would be easier to make a new account and just place silver 5
