HELP ME IMRPOVE

Alrighty GD, i want your help to help me improve my gameplay/ help me decide if i am ready for ranked again.

I only ever got to silver 1, a few seasons ago when the premade plague swept across the game, and frustrated me so much going against 4 man voice com teams, that i quit ranked and just played norms till now. Even then, i only spent 1-2 weeks actually trying to rank up... So, who knows how high my dumb ass actually could of climbed.

That being said, here is my recent match history on lolking http://www.lolking.net/summoner/na/55482276/RageSenpai#/profile There is only norm draft in there and some ARAMS, so i know the info isn't too much to go off of, but still, GIVE ME TIPS DAMNIT. Ignore the ARAMS, those are jokes as is lmao.

I want to try ranked again, and see how high i can climb. But i need to know if i am ready to start it again. I feel iv'e drastically gotten better lately after changing my attitude and realizing i can always improve something no matter if the match is a win, or a loss. There is always something i can do better. But i don't know if iv'e improved quite enough yet.

So basically, go look at my match history if you can, and give me some tips on what you can see to improve on, and let me know if you think i can jump back into it yet, or if i need to wait a little longer to polish some things up.

Anything helps, I am just trying to be a better player, and get backed into ranked.

Thanks in advance [slayer-jinx-wink]

No one can tell you if you are going to climb or not based on games in normal draft. At a minimum play your 10 placement games and then ask again. In normals the match making is so bad that it is really hard to tell what went on during the game because the games are typically stacked 1 way or another instead of having a decently even spread like in ranked. Just do the 10 games and it will be a lot easier to predict where you are at.

Side not, just noticed you are in a game. It looks like you are 2 wins 1 loss so far.

Your game has: 1 Silver 4 2 Silver 3s 3 Gold 5s 2 Gold 4s 1 Gold 3

So the average rank in that game is Gold 5. If you maintain a 50% win rate from here on out it will be a coin flip on if you place in Silver 1 or Gold 5. 6-4 would put you in favor of Silver 1 and 7-3 would put you in favor of Gold 5, but it is still a coin flip If you ended up 8-2 or better then you would pretty much be guaranteed to start in Gold 5. I think 9-1 would give you Gold 4 or Gold 3 at best.

Will be able to tell you more about your actual skill level once the 10 games are done.

5-4 so far? If you go 5-5 it is a split between placing Silver 1 or Silver 2. If you go 6-4 it is a split between Silver 1 and Gold 5 based on your current MMR. Don't worry about placements too much though, your MMR is still really malleable for the next 20-30 games, so it is easy climbing, good LP gains. Based on current performance I think you won't hit your first wall where your team mates feel consistently heavy until Gold 3 or Gold 2.
