Tips for getting out of Bronze

Dwayne Johnsòn··1 votes·588 views

Yesterday I was Bronze 1 and I failed my series to get to silver which was a fair loss. So I started to climb back to 100 LP, but all of a sudden I started to get extremely bad players on my team commonly. Many of these players were gold players and I am almost certain that they were trolling and inting. I played game after game desperately trying my best to carry my team to victory and being a support main doesn't help. Eventually I lost 15 of 17 games of ranked and none of them were my fault! I am now demoted all the way down to Bronze 3 25Lp and I feel like hanging myself because I spent 3 whole days trying to reach silver and got nothing but shot down all the way down to bronze 3 which is lower than I started from not to mention that my MMR is stupidly terrible now. I know the season is coming to an end and that is why I need some Tips for getting out of bronze fast or at least bronze 1 again, I would appreciate if some people told me how they got out of bronze as well too! Please I need some tips quickly!

Play ADC Farm Wait till your first back, you should have more cs if you farmed. Bronze players like to go for kills rather than farm, thus they get like 3-6 cs/m. Buy an AD item, pickaxe, BF sword, whatever. Go back to Lane. All-in nonstop. Never go in melee ranged as ADC Position yourself behind or on top of your tanks/support.

Easiest way to get out of Bronze ^

I have 13 accounts, but I main Jayce Top lane. I am currently playing on my smurf right now, I got placed into Silver 4 because I was trying out Corki. But instead of playing Jayce top on my smurfs, I play Jayce ADC. Its the easiest role to carry from.

Why?

-Double the kills. -Easier to farm -You know when a gank is about to happen due to having 4 wards (support wards and adc wards) -You do the most damage

ADC is just flat out broken at this point. Learn it, master it, and you will be gold in no time.

Accounts: (Notice most of them dropped from plat due to not playing on them, you can look at the winrate and tell which elo i was in with them tho) http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=jayce+top http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=im+a+jayce+god http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=im+the+jayce+god http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=i+am+a+jayce+god http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=ah+o+yeah+harder http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=falque -Current Smurf http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=the+aggressor http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=zZ%20ThE%20BrAiN%20Zz http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=DIILmach00

I have more accounts but I dont remember some of their names lol. But this is from a smurf you can trust who has made it to Diamond 5 twice from level 1-Diamond, and made it to Plat+ over 11 times.

Which ADC do you recommend playing? I remember playing against some dude who played jhin and got mobility boots first, he completely destroyed bot lane.

Twitch is the best current ADC due to his amazing ult late game. Can easily wipe out 5 people, but hes almost always banned. KogMaw Melts enemy teams in a snap but has terrible mobility, and requires your team to protect him (which rarely happens in bronze). Draven Has a high skill cap, will take about 100 games until you start climbing really easily. By far the best ADC due to his Q, but takes a long time to master to be the best. Kalista Highest skill cap adc. Deals tons of damage, but definitely wouldnt recommend at your level. The champion just takes too much work to fully master. Corki Very easy to play, best APC, can 1v2 easily mid game enemy adc/support even if theyre ahead a bit.

I have Draven at m5 but I always get shredded by assassins like evelyn and zed who are being played a lot currently .

Play anything but ADC. You have to rely on your team to be competent enough to do anything beyond laning phase.

Learn to play any champion that can reliably clear waves (split push is a plus), take objectives, and a reliable fighter as well.

Farm more, die less, expect no help from your team. Pro Tip: Push out lanes to your favor before you try any teamfighting.

Play as aggressive as you possibly can without dieing. Learn to do it consistantly and youll climb.

Climbing as an ADC requires your team to be remotely competent otherwise you'll be primary target number one in every fight and not peeled for which means you'll be useless pretty fast.

As much as I hate suggesting cheese or even encouraging it, Thunderlord's Nocturne can carry a pretty bad player to at least gold since he's basically autopilot and the community hasn't caught onto it yet. Farm to 6 which for him is really easy. After that, you just come through lane, ult onto a squishy and right before you collide, hit them with Q. You'll get the three attacks for Thunderlord's near instantly and against most ADCs that aren't fed at level 8 you'll guaranteed kill them if they don't have flash. Sometimes they don't even get time to react if you get it fast enough and they're at a quarter HP just from you alone.

Lot of Nocturne players suggest Tiamat, I suggest Warrior + BOTRK. Around level 11 if you have max CDR your ult is like 1:30, at level 16 it's every minute at which point you just pick off their squishies if they are alone.

It's incredibly hard to not get fed with Nocturne if you're remotely competent and playing against idiots and he isn't like a crazy high skill cap champion to learn. He only really would fall off in elos like above Plat where people don't avoid grouping at all and allow themselves to be easily isolated. Basically, against people with brains who can group, Nocturne falls off pretty hard which is why he excels at low ELO. (Bronze through Plat)

If all else fails: Annie Mid/Top is incredibly dominant, just farm and burst them at 6. If they play a tank, they won't play aggressively against you and you can free farm, if they play a squishy that isn't Pantheon or something with great all-in ability, you'll destroy them.

Although these are smurfs so I would trash this elo by default, these are two smurfs I put into Gold Tier this season, the bottom one I seeded into Bronze for lulz and stomped games hard until I realized I still hate this game and quit for 10 months:
