how to win in bronze?

EZ Viktory··1 votes·270 views

My one and obvious problem in bronze is that I lose because most of the time, teammates can't fend for themselves and do do well. I main Tryndamere top, and play Nasus, TwistedFate, and Soraka as backups. I was playing a TF game and we were doing good. We had an inhibitor into the enemy team and were winning. We got into a team fight and all died, and who was pushing top? Rammus. Not since we all died the enemies got our nexus exposed, while Rammus didn't even TRY to back. He fought the person who went top to stop him. And obviously, we lost the game. Now trust me when I say I know low ELO people throw the blame on anyone they can and try to be a all around dick sometimes. Today I played with a Wukong that got mad I had a negative KD. Although that isn't what i'm here for. Because of the kinds of mistakes bronze people do, the enemies are always able to get opportunity in. Now trust me, i'm FAR from being a good player. I just think I might do better with silver or maybe even gold players that KNOW what they are supposed to do. Now there are a few games where I am the culprit of loss, and that's obviously true, probably for anyone. But MOST of the time I lose due to the team not being able to help or have as much game knowledge. Now I got stuck in bronze because I didn't know as much as I did now, and therefore obviously had a lot of bad games. And because I got placed silver last season, the rank was lower (apparently, what I was told) Now if you want to read how my bronze journey of promotions and demotions has gone, keep reading this, if not, skip the rest of this paragraph. Anyways I got placed bronze II, demoted to III, promoted back to II, demoted to III, demoted to IV, promoted to III, demoted to IV, and now i'm stuck here. I had a promotion, and had a free win, so I thought i would make it easily, but the bot laners in both of the promotion games fed the ADC horribly. I'm still stuck in bronze now. What i'm really asking is are there any tips to get out of bronze? Anything that could help? In reality all I had to do was just put THIS short paragraph, but I didn't. Anyways thank you in advance if I get advice.

tl;dr: tips to ge tout of bronze?

Ah the typical bronze blame game. Let's see:

  1. Why did you get into a team fight when Rammus is splitting top?
  2. Why did you all die?
  3. How can you seriously expect a Rammus who has no wave clear at all to def against 4 or 5 people?

If my team would fuck up this hard I would probably stay top aswell and don't even try to def at all, the game was over at this point. But ofc the splitpushing rammus who is (probably) actually useful is the one to blame. This is why you are bronze. For you it's always the fault of someone else, never of your own.

I just think I might do better with silver or maybe even gold players that KNOW what they are supposed to do

Well ofc, since they would carry you while you have no clue what you are doing.

What i'm really asking is are there any tips to get out of bronze? Anything that could help?

Realizing that you are not nearly as good as you think you are. You are bad and if you don't work on yourself and try to get better you will never climb.

I would prefer POSITIVE criticism... not negative? And like I said I KNOW when i'm wrong, the team shouldn't of gone in, still feel like something could have been done

And I would prefer chilling in the sun right now and later driving home in a ferrari to my own zoo and giant house with hot male strippers in maid dresses waiting for me. But we can't all get what we want especially not if asked in a public forum where everyone can share his or her own opinion.

Now seriously, what kind of answer are you expecting? Are we supposed to tell you what kind of great player you are and that you definitly don't deserve to be in bronze and your team is holding you back? I repeat myself again, your problem is that you don't want to see your own problems even if you say that you know the team did something wrong now. Your first thought was to blame the Rammus instead of yourself, and this is exactly the mindset that you have to change. Always look at your own mistakes first and try to make it better. There are tons of guides out there (especially on youtube) that can help you improving yourself. I already posted a bunch of tipps to someone else, gonna look for it and post you the link later. But Youtube is definitly one of the first things to look for guides

First, I will say I am unranked so anything I say can be dismiss. Maybe, duo with someone who is good but is in your elo. There are other ppl who are probably stuck like you and seeking a way out so you should be able to find someone.

After finding a potential partner duo with them in some normals see how they do and go from there. Get to know each other playstyle and champs etc.

Tldr: you need to improve your own play first and make changes to how your going about ranked or you can assume your gonna get the same result.

When you cant rely on teammates to make good plays focus on playing champs who are unreliant on teammates to make their plays. Some folks say split pushers, I personally go with longer range APC casters as your positioning will enable you to drop enemy carries with low to no risk depending on their positioning. Xerath Ziggs Lux . Or play champions who care make plays off teammates misplays to lower the impact of a derpy fellow.

Regardless non of this will work with out the mechanics to back it up. So every game regardless of how garbage your teammates where you should look over the numbers. At a glance, Stop playing Tryndamry in ranked until you improve. I know this type of statement can feel like an attack but please try to be objective and look over it yourself. 1.60:1 KDA 7.9 / 7.9 / 4.7 33% winrate 15 Played. This is not helping you climb. Looking over ranked stats you have only broken 50% kill participation once as trynd ranked. Saying that your teammates cant fend for them self's in games that your participation is low 30%s or under to me is just the same as saying I did not help my team.

Work on playing around teammates even when they suck, the trick is to be good at reactionary plays rather then banking on them to make a proactive play.

Look at your season 6. you played more Yii then all your other ranked champion combined, yet only had a single win on him. Your win rate was 6% but you kept on playing him. Every one else ya ranked with you had 50% or 60% but ya just kept going for yii and the number of games ya lost completely erased all your other wins. Don't force something that's not working for ya if you want to climb.

start to looking at what's better player build. i mean against a bursty tanky match up as Tryndamere u should build this item 3046 against a tank item 3153.

buy this item 2055. On ur 20 last match u bough just one. ONE.

in ranked don't play to many champ. And on ur offrole don't try "hard mechanical champ". So don't Orianna Azir Yasuo ...

And i forbid u to first time in ranked.
