Bronze

I'd like tips on how I can carry my games out of bronze. I have been playing Xin Zhao with an average KDA of 3.8. I was at 75 lp bronze 1 but went on a losing streak and now am at 18 lb. This is starting to make me mad, because I play with golds-diamonds in normals and perform fine. Im having trouble getting everyone member on my team to listen to me in games that last long, and end up losing a lot because 1-2 players dont listen and let the enemy team take the game. I try to gank as much as I can early game, sometimes having 6 kill participation around 8-9 minutes, but many times my team still dies solo (even when they get the kills). Late game I try as hard as I can to direct my team but often there is one player who wont listen and we lose. I want to know what I can do better to win more of my ranked games.

I suggest finding a duo partner in Bronze/Silver that you that you play well with. A Jungler can easily queue with any lane partner. Supports and Middle Laners seem to match up the best in your ELO, though, in my experience.

Xin is a rough choice (sometimes) to carry with. I'm sure you're really good at him, especially because your KDA is decent, so don't take what I'm saying as, "Don't play Xin." By all means, play champions you're comfortable and great with when you can, but be aware. Playing into what your team needs is crucial. Tanks or "Support" Junglers are sometimes more important to carry a game than a damage champion like Xin, especially when you're doing so well comparative to your team.

I'm sure you don't only play Xin, and you probably already know this, but it's what I suggest you do, and for one reason: if you can bulk up on defensive stats and tank hits for your carries that die more often than not, you'll give them the opportunity to catch up in the middle or late game! I like to play CC Tank Junglers for that reason.

It's all in your situation. I'm completely positive you'll rank up eventually, even if you just play Xin Zhao! You just have to take a deep breath sometimes and understand that not every game will be a win, even if your personal performance is really good.

Thanks, the reason I play xin is because of his early gank power and his ability to take on multiple enemies if you are ahead. Personally, I dont like playing tanks low elo because you rely on your team so much to follow up, many time they dont and you become useless. I may try support jgs like Ivern who can snowball the game.

That's a completely understandable reason to not enjoy playing Tanks in ranked. Lots of people manage to get out of Bronze/Silver with hyper-carries like Yi, Xin, Olaf, ECT. because of that exact reason of 1v3 fight potential. If you do it well like you say, then you're on the right track! You can do it.

Ivern is a rough Jungler to play when your team is falling behind, but experimenting can never hurt! I personally really enjoy him.
