I really hate bronze players and their playstyle

RoninSword·Oct 30, 2015·2 votes·984 views

Greetings, I need to rant a bit, I know everyone hates this but please be patient with me.

I want to play with more competent teams. I usually perform well in every game, just not enough to hyper carry. Which I do on occasion. My actual game play knowledge far exceeds players I am with and I usually try to be the voice of reason. An example of this from a recent game would be constantly telling to team not to be greedy and keep their advantage after winning a team fight or gaining picks but I am forever ignored, after killing 3 people the 3 people on my team with 20% just can't not keep pushing until they get wiped as well, meanwhile I point out global objectives and important jungle minions we could have fallen back upon. Usually I get raged it, even though I am saying it in a very polite way.

-Why can't people listen to a voice of reason? Even if you make no attempt to be rude people just can't handle being told ANYTHING

-Why does a top who has died 3 times in row 1v1 and has a clear item disadvantage still continue to try to 1v1 their laning opponent and keep dying to ensure them snowballing?

-Why does no one ward? Whatever role I'm playing I ward about a good 20+ then my team combined

-Why are the tanks focused 65% of the time in teamfights

-Why don't people understand global objectives?

-Why do people push blind with no wards and all enemies MIA

-Why does everyone rage

I enjoy farming, but there is literally almost zero chance to practice legit farming in bronze, usually it is just a massive killfest with very little laning phase.

Why can't people learn?

In order...

Most everyone in low elo has the mentality that everyone on their team will most likely feed and be a shit so the idea of listening to them is totally alien
They want that sick outplay
Because keeping vision control is 2hard4them and it doesn't involve killing shit so it doesn't interest them
Hitting the first thing coming at you is instinctual and they can't fight it
They'd rather be fighting enemy champs
They're bloodthirsty
The low elo high ego is real

Tanks should be focused by sustain damage mages and ADCs if those are the safest targets. If there's a risk that you might die trying to get to the enemy back line, you shouldn't do it. You can't do damage when you're dead.

Assassins, on the other hand, specialize in diving to the back line and deleting 1 or maybe even both carries. That's the real issue because once they do their combo, they don't have much else except random spells here and there when they come off CD. If a carry wasn't deleted or at least very badly damaged by your assassin, he/she doesn't know what an assassin is in the first place.

Oh, I'd like to tackle this one.

Some champs are simply better designed to fight tanks and/or the situation demands something of the champion that requires that their only viable target is a tank. No qualms with a Vayne focusing a tank, for example.

Now the real question is why are the tanks focused so goddamn much by assassins, burst mages, and anti-squishy fighters, the kinds of champions the worst equipped to fight tanks?

Sustained damage mage~

He's really more of a burst mage, I think. He uses his combo to burst someone down in one combo (albeit over a couple seconds) and then he has to wait a while for his cooldowns to come back up.

Welcome to Elo hell. I find the same thing. I have been stuck at low silver for MONTHS because every time I get to promos I get games where I will be the jg and my team will all die before even my first clear of my jg. Its impossible to move up. If you aren't an absolute carrying god, you are bound to sit in elo hell forever just getting frustrated. Welcome to the club.

sigh, thanks for the pointers, I have yet to go negative KDA in any of my games tonight, I am just unable to do anything about the 14-1 guy who appears after 6 minutes of laning and turns the game into early mid game overkill.

i agree people are very touchy says right there rule 1 of the summoners code offer solutions crying and wineing does nothing for you or the team. and right after riot had warriors realeased with worlds last year about working hard for good results surrendering spiked . i dont really yty to hyper carry but relying on your team doesnt really do good in solos
