Why does winning in Silver seem so impossible?

I've ran out of reasons/best ways to win.

Every game is like that where I have to deal with each carry having 10 kills

You would think after you nuke the enemy team down to 1/3 health your team would help get an ace, but somehow people just run and find a way to die.

What is the difference or skills that I need to be at least a Gold player, cuz dam silver 2 last season dropping like a rock this season (I have to admit I got too frustrated with constant toxic teammates / people that just did dumb things on purpose that I chose to troll a lot of games too... cant beat em join em??)

But yeah how does one get to Gold/Plat

The more you troll your team mates the worse your team does and the more you lose.

With Zen meditation and patience, you will achieve great things.

Obviously it's not impossible since if you are losing then someone else is winning. It's kind of impossible to tell you how to win when we have no way of knowing what you are doing wrong. My only advice is to be patient and keep trying(not just to win but to improve on your game play as well).

Come visit us in Bronze5.

It is actually impossible to guarantee a victory when your teammates don't take the game seriously and/or are bronze5 because they frequently troll and AFK. Getting out of here is a lottery.

Silver is hard because people at least try (even if they aren't great, they try) in Bronze, because no one wants to be a "bronzie". In silver it seems like half the people are just so glad to not be in bronze they have stopped trying and just troll since it takes a miracle + natural disaster to get demoted from silver 5 back into bronze.

Until you get to silver 1/2 where people want to get to gold, you will just get trolls and half assers, which is about as opposite of try harding as can be, because so many people don't care, just because they aren't in bronze, as if Silver is that better skill wise lol

Bronze mind set- Everyone is in this sh*tty rank because they suck but im a god who's being held down by too many of them

Silver mind set- I got those bronze sh*tters off me therefore i'm the hottest thing ever and don't have to listen to crap anybody else says

Gold mind set- I can't say gold and up. I stopped ranking from silver 1 last season when I saw victorious morgana..

People can't stand being stunned in their face.

People can't peel for their ADC.

People chase kills like the Nid on link.

Just gonna spam Tanky junglers~
