Ok, so it literally feels impossible to get out of bronze league. I constantly encounter AFK players like 1 and 4 games. I encounter ragers who do nothing, but talk the whole game. I constantly see feeding really bad. I am the best person on both teams almost every game and end up losing more games than winning. It feels the only time I win is if my teammates actually listen to me, but that doesn't happen very often because people get offensive then start raging saying I don't want to be told what to do. However, if you don't say anything they wonder around the map. It's such a crappy feeling when you spend an hour playing and get an S rating and lose. I can't tell you how many times this has happened to me. I don't understand how people get out bronze. This game frustrates so much I am about to quit. I have kept playing to improve myself and work on my game, but when your allies have constant negative k/d, low cs, and chase in the jungle it just feels hopeless. Does anyone else feel like they have tried everything and just feel permanently stuck in bronze? Also, the wait times to play the game are frustrating and the constant dodging is annoying. Almost ever game I play someone dodges and see the champion select screen 2 or 3 times before I actually play a game then the game lasts almost an hour and then lose with an S rating. I am about ready to quit this game forever unless someone else has some advice?

I can give you some advice through a customs or normals game if you'd like

Welp, you declined so I'm assuming you don't want the help. Best of luck ~

Quit if you feel that overwhelmed. Else think about what I'm about to tell you.

Being in bronze you need to decide either play casually or you're playing because you want to improve. Based on what you claim you think you are already a decent player well then you will climb. If the only way you see yourself improving is by +22 lp then you're looking at this game the wrong way.

You aren't master, not even diamond. there's no reason for you to think winning is everything in this game, there are no stakes. Your plan should be to learn from each game and don't make the same mistake you made last game.

Us Low elo players win games in streaks and lose in streaks and it's because many of us can not get over the fact of what happened last game and we bring our baggage into the next match. Stay calm and you will climb I promise
