Am I really that bad of a player?

WhSeriouSly··1 votes·381 views

I guess you will instantly will search for my profile, so don't waste your time, I'm a silver player that finnally got out of b1. Well it seems that after some time I saw some really questionable shit in my ranked game, and before you throw that: "bronze player, clearly doesn't know what he's talking about don't give him attention he just wants to complain" , yeah you're pretty right tbh, but not totally, I'm mostly here becouse I really need advice. I WANT to get better at league, I WANT to stomp my shittalking classmates , I WANT to win my games and my promos, and the most I really want to have fun in this game but league seems to throw shit at me more and more... Last game - mid talon who "oh i didn't even know talon got a rework" and quinn adc top smh... what a surprise...Well that game went really "well", me and my duo nearly winning bot then losing it terribly becouse of blitz hook into mf ult, yeah not at all annoying. The game before that, the best game I've had in a long time honestly, but lost because of too many stuns on my arse as always, and flashing away or just pressing e doesn't work everytime, (lucian bot in both games). Well I really want to know what I clearly do wrong when i'm trying to teamfight versus 1 tank(braum) , one juggernaut/ap mage bruiser thingy(galio) and one... what the fuck he is , the most annoying champion to play against (pantheon). If you guys would just have some mercy on a poor soul stuck in silver and help me somehow out. It may be my mindset, it may be becouse i don't play that much or whatever... Thanks in advance if anyone will answer with constructive criticism. EDIT : Just seen it now, this should probably be in general discussion subboard, sry guys !

It's not about hitting, or getting hit! It's about how hard you can get hit and keep getting back up! Don't you dare f*cking give up!

can you not look down on people who want to play more competitively and enjoy playing the game more competitively?

not looking down at you...

i was asking a generalized question

i didnt say anything about your skill or play or anything

I mean, it was worded in an extremely negative way so excuse me for assuming

well to go to your OP about how your friends put u down and bash on you cuz of your not as highly ranked as them and you wanna be better to prove them wrong and basically shove it in their face...

im not the negative one... your friends are.

if anything they would try to help you . this game has a lot of things to be good at to become a good player...

but you can be a good player and never get out of silver. rank is a way for riot to make you feel as the game is competitive to keep you playing by placing you with others of your "general skill ' and you climb til you reach that "skill level " that your skill allows you to be at.

if you were /are in bronze and face people who are skilled as "diamonds' the game wouldnt be fun. it would be frustrating you hate the game and chances are stop playing...

it the diamonds players played vs bronze (low elos ) all the time they just stomp and win games and not have to try and then they wouldnt feel 'challenged ' or "competitive " and get bored and stop playing

so riot dont want people not to play... the more you play the more addicted you get the more you watch their shit/ buy their products/ etc and they make more $

so they use rank as a way to make the game seem competitive to all of different skill levels and be challenging and rewarding at the same time. like you made it from bronze to silver... good job. you improved... and now you are hooked and wanna keep "climbing and improving' but when you dont you get mad , frustrated etc then you start to spite the game an the players and become one of those bitter rage flamer toxic players you see alot... they quit having fun...

you can try to get better and improve ... nothing wrong with that... we should all strive to improve in everything we do... but dont do it at the cost of enjoying yourself and having fun and let this game stress you and make you angry and ragefull.

now as you as a player .. look at what champs you play, which champs do you win the most on, which ones do you lose on? are you trying to play high skill level champs or simpler champs to focus on whats infront of you? are you good at cs? bad at map awarness? match ups? rotations? positioning? damage calculations? game knowledge ? knowing win conditions , power spikes. who and what to focus at what time ...

this isnt a game of checkers its a game of chess.

do you tilt and play bad after you do... are you able to make smart calculated decisions?

its hard to say just looking at match history

do you take time to reflect after a game of what you did good or bad? in a win and loss? where you could of did better?

I guess you're just... not quite there yet. I feel the same way but arguably worse because I can't even escape B2 and the more I play ranked the more I'm losing.
