Stuck.

My goal for this season was gold. I found myself playing several games everyday using what free time I get. I've been playing more than ever before in the last 2 months. I find myself learning a lot more from playing but I don't move on the ladder. I've been falling actually. Currently, I am Silver III. I've jumped around a ton. Highest, I've been is Silver I 40pts. I can't figure out why I can't get up there again. At this point, it's if I get gold, I get it. If I don't, I don't due to so little time left in the season. I've been trying to read up on the game to get better such as people suggesting playing a couple champions to climb so you master them and then expand your pool a bit more the more you climb. So I main Wukong, I prefer Top/Jg, Mid's decent, bot lane always seems to be a hit or miss for me. Any ideas or maybe your story of climbing? We all get stuck at some point.

If you look into my history, my team and I made the mistake of not getting MR vs. a fed Ryze. Looking at their builds and who'd fed is definitely something for me to work on.

You know, I'm only Bronze V, but I think what rank you are has far more to do with "how long can you go without losing" than "how well do you play this game".

Climbing at that rank is really heavily based upon champ select IMO. One of the easiest ways to carry is to play FOTM champs (at all elos) or to play assassin type champion. One in particular I used to climb out of silver in a previous season was Akali. She is very easy to play and upon hitting 6 you're pretty much guarenteed to kill the opposing mid laner at silver rank.

I would be happy to spectate some of your games if you are interested and see if I notice anything that could be improved. Feel free to add me.
