The only two things that wins games in low elo

  1. Rotations.

  2. Going even/Not hard feeding.

Most of those stupid youtube videos that tell you "hey this is what you gotta do to win your games in low elo" are a bunch of bs and so is most of the "steps" in it.

>Warding - It doesn't matter if you ward in low elo. What's the point of trying to give vision to a blind man? Now let's say YOU look at the map consistently and you even ping like a mad man everywhere the jungler is going, everywhere all the laners are going. It doesn't matter because either your team-mates don't listen to the pings or don't take 2 seconds to look at the map.

>Roaming - Lol. In all honesty, no matter how much you roam, help out your team giving them kills, ect. It simply doesn't matter. They'll just drop their lead within 2 minutes.

>Play op champs - Bitch pls. You give this advice to these low elo players and 95% of the time they can't play those "op" champs.

There's a lot more of these so called "tips to carry you out of ..." but in all honesty, rotations win games. If you can out rotate your opponent you'll win your games fast and with ease.

Don't get me wrong though, you should still do most of these things like ward and roam. It's good to practice it incase you do eventually get out of the elo you're in and go to a much higher one. But in all honesty, if you go into a ranked match @LowEloPlayers, listen to that one guy trying to help everyone win the match sooner than later or just practice rotating yourselves.

I'm just ranting and trying to help out other people.

I would add at low elo playing simple to play champs like nunu, nasus, ashe etc and simply focusing on fundamental game play is a big advantage. Everytime the enemy ganks bot lane and then doesn't try and take dragon or push a tower it literally confuses the hell out of me.

Warding - It doesn't matter if you ward in low elo. What's the point of trying to give vision to a blind man? Now let's say YOU look at the map consistently and you even ping like a mad man everywhere the jungler is going, everywhere all the laners are going. It doesn't matter because either your team-mates don't listen to the pings or don't take 2 seconds to look at the map.

You ward for yourself so that you have the information to make proper decisions; if your allies use it in low ELO, that's just a bonus.

Roaming - Lol. In all honesty, no matter how much you roam, help out your team giving them kills, ect. It simply doesn't matter. They'll just drop their lead within 2 minutes.

You roam to get yourself a lead and to set the enemy behind. Even if your allies may not make proper use of the advantage, you (supposedly) will and you will benefit from your enemies being weaker.

Play op champs - Bitch pls. You give this advice to these low elo players and 95% of the time they can't play those "op" champs.

If they don't know how to play a champion, then it doesn't matter if they are OP or not. Considering that you can climb out of low ELO on any champion if you are competent, most people recommend that low ELO players just use champions they are familiar with.

Those, this advice is technically valid (assuming they learn how to play the champion first). If you want to climb, playing a strong champion you know is typically better than playing a weak champion you know.
