Why can't I simply win ranked ever?

0zzy 0sbourne··1 votes·2,781 views

I lose all the fucking time. Don't know why. I usually go positive. I ward a fucking lot. I'm with my team usually. I try to secure drags. I splitpush when my team is winning a fight. I position well in fights so usually the fight ends up worth. I cs rather well. I'm always looking for what do, whether it's farm jungle, or group with an ally, or warding a spot....

But i lose. I lose I lose some more and again over and over and over

You'd think maybe once I would win but nope. never, why the fuck would I win? The one with one of the best KDA, and the most wards placed? why would the one who has the most CS in game ever fucking win? 45 minute game? Nope, team is just gonna not get the open inhib when they have only 1 person up, and Udyr kills me. Where's my team? not getting thier inhib. Where's their team? Respawning, and winning the last push.

FML, ranked is just one big curse, and I'm living in elo hell forever, cuz i'm cursed to always fucking lose, and I have no fucking idea why when I apply just about everything I've ever learned about how to climb.

Then there's these fuckers that just say It's simple childs play to carry bronze. Whoever those people are must be lucky as fuck and get good teams all day long when people like me just fucking struggle their damnest to climb and never fucking get anywhere cuz it's literally impossible.

First of all, you have a 40% win rate in your last 20 games, so you don't always lose.

5.5 is a very high death average. You should try to lower it, die less. Going 1 for 1 is not worth it. If you're playing a carry, going 1 for 2 also is not worth it. Letting your opponent catch up is your demise.

Your CS is like a 5 CS/minute average, 6 if we're being nice, which is not horrible, but it's not commendable either. You want 7-8 to be ahead of your opponents, or around 70-80 at the ten minute mark. Practice makes perfect.

In half of your last 20 games, your contribution per kill was less than 50%. Remember to try to group with your team, ping, try to coordinate with them.

There's probably a lot more wrong with why you're losing that I can't see, because I'm in Bronze 5 too, but even I can tell you're not doing particularly well.

A lot of the reason why high elo players can climb out of Bronze is because Bronze players just feed. Bronze has the highest kill average out of any elo and the highest death average out of any elo. Even a slightly skilled player can take their gold lead, not die, and easily carry. You yourself have done it a bunch of times. You need to find the line between when you can carry and when you can't, and then work from there.

Learn a splitpusher like Tryndamere Fiora Nasus MasterYi .

That way you don't have to rely on your team because you can solo the nexus by yourself.

Never works in Bronze 5, by the way. Their team will literally just go from all mid to all top to catch you, because your team won't just shove down mid while they're gone. You'll constantly get camped and die, plus your team will report you for not grouping. Better to not.

You don't even have to "carry" in Bronze to be the best player on the team. I cruised from B5 to silver this season because I stayed positive, kept my death count low (less than 4 is always preferable) and worked around any inadequacies my teammates may have had. I know it's a league cliche, but teamwork really is super OP.

how the fuck did you manage to go from b5 to silver already in season 5. b5 is just fucking littered with feeders and smurfs, and 90% of the games you lose are literally impossible to win cuz team just gets slaughtered by the plat riven.

how come when i try staying positive, die less, and work around my teams complete lack of power I still just fucking lose all the time? I'd need to be a gold smurf to get anywhere cuz I'd need to effectively have the power to 1v3 most the time to ever fucking win.

No offense man, but based on the way you're talking in the forum I highly doubt you're the most positive guy ever in-game.

When playing with a lower level team (I do ranked 5s with a group of friends that are primarily B5 sometimes for fun) I prefer to jungle as it allots me the opportunity to save them in-lane with well timed ganks.

Sorry if you've been having a rough season - I'm having trouble getting passed Silver III, so my "cruising through" stage came to an abrupt end, and it's pretty frustrating for me too - but having an attitude with your teammates does you no good, and will only keep you deep in bronze even longer.
