A lot of the stereotypes you describe sound like low bronze, not all of bronze. A few years ago, there was a guy legitimately at like 400 MMR who streamed his games. Those claims about low CS, no warding, stupid dives, missing every skillshot, etc. are pretty accurate to what I saw watching him play.

But bronze 1 and 2 aren't nearly as bad in those aspects. I know a guy in high bronze, and I've watched him play quite a few games this season. The more common issues there are:

  • Warding but not actually paying attention to the warded area
  • Over-extending
  • Lack of objective focus
  • Chasing for days
  • Overstaying on a push
  • Poor positioning
  • Generally relatively poor mechanics
  • Not respecting minion damage (diving through a huge minion wave and losing half their HP to minions)

Of course the degree of all these will vary by player and by game. But they're very common issues.

Bronze smurfs are quite good.

I looked up your match history and you get about half as much as you need to, 1/3 of the amount of good players.

Bronze/silver elo is another word for level 20 solo queue.

30% of the player's base is bronze.

So yes these bronze exists. But you have to understand that with this many people in bronze the bronze 5 and the bronze 4 are two different worlds. And so are bronze 2 and bronze 3.

I agree with you. The community is just toxic, which is sad when it is the official forums.

Warding but not actually paying attention to the warded area

I'm gold and yet struggle for this one. I can't focus on farming and checking the minimap at the same time. Whatever, play Nasus and get a double kill at lvl 6.

Bronze sentence structure.

Well, I did a 3v1 against bronze and won without trying too much.

80 CS in 15 2/10 at worst

This is what bronze players consider good.

Ashe is Gold 3. Vayne is Bronze 1. No, I didn't just let them freely bully Ashe. I was Sona.

Rank means nothing to me because this happens all the time in normal games.

never really heard anyone say this

i see vids about playing vs bronze and that is so fake

of course, half of that clickbait garbage is higher elo people playing against bronze, so there is going to be an apparent skill disparity

its not like we randomly tower dive when we have 10 hp

again, never heard anyone say this seriously

maybe you're just looking at what people are saying figuratively and taking it literally
