Getting wrecked in ranked

grandmastad··1 votes·361 views

Recently started playing ranked games again, got placed in Silver III. For some reason I feel like I am playing with diamond and bronze players. Some of the players are amazing and godlike plays and I am getting wrecked and others I just don't know what to say. Am I the only one that sees this?

You ARE playing with bronze players as you still aren't out of the bronze elo range yet and even then it's not like too many thing will be noticeably different from high bronze to low gold, as for the diamond players well 3 reasons could explain this: 1. they actually are diamond players just smurfing (unlikely in silver) 2. they could be players who are exceptionally good with that specific champion that you are watching make the plays but be completely horribly with other general skills and champions or 3. you could just be fairly low on the skill bracket yourself to where normal plays in gold elo look like god like plays to you that you've never seen before.

Depends on what you're playing, alot of champions lack kill potential which might be your issue so I'd suggest trying different champions or take ignite if you're really looking for kills.

HongChongDong (I like the name) is right. The largest player base in ranked is silver. I believe silver 2-3 is average. Those games seem to be pretty random as the skill range of players seems to change a good amount. However, it should even out and if you are better than a silver 3 elo you should climb and if you are not you should stay where you are or drop.
