Lets talk Bronze/Silver

barson bazooka··1 votes·459 views

Alright, me being a higher end silver player I know toxicity, in fact I used to be one of the most toxic people in this game. I've gotten 4 accounts perma-banned, and I'm not proud. I am indeed a changed man, but this isn't the topic. When you have a Yasuo who's died 3 times to LeBlanc by 7:38 what do you do? I was playing Kha'zix jungle, and every single lane was losing. I myself am not 100% sure how to deal with this besides toxicity. If I'm not with friends that I can vent to (I'm usually not) then what do I do? I can't flame or I'll be banned, learned that one, if I afk I feel like shit inside, leaving me one option. Throw up a surrender vote and hope to god they realize it is a waste of time when its 1-13 at 24 minutes. I pray to god that my time is saved, but of course, this turns into a 50 minute game and I WANNA THROW MY WEEWEE OUTTA THE FREAKIN WINDOW INTO THE RIVER AND LET IT BE RIPPED INTO SHREDS! Any advice that is actually positive and will possibly help me is appreciated.

ALSO ANY PLAYERS WHO ARE JUST LIKE ME, ADD THE ACCOUNT NESS2111 OR WAFFLESBEATSALL

My advice is to not put your wee wee out the window and into the river. You're going to need that later.

I don't get mad. I listen to calming music. You should try it for yourself.

Lol there's not a whole lot you can do...

The only thing I can think to tell you is that instead of focusing on EVERYTHING wrong with the current match, just pay attention to yourself and what you're doing.

Just lost a fight that YOU initiated? Forget about the fact that a fed Leblanc showed up. Focus on the fact that YOU didn't notice she was missing in the first place when you went in.

Had your tower sieged and died to someone else's fed lane opponent? Look at the situation and try to figure out if it was possible to hold them off and you screwed up your champion mechanics, or if you should have just abandoned the tower.

That doesn't nearly cover every situation your going to run in to, and some things really aren't going to be your fault. But I can guarantee that the majority of things that personally go wrong for you are preventable. You just have to figure out what your mistake was, so you can prevent it in the future.

Your going to lose games, it's inevitable. And not every loss will be your fault. So try to stop focusing on who's fault it was, and try to focus on what you can do better in EVERY future game (not just when someone feeds)

Thank you, I'll try these things out and see if they help!

If it helps motivate you, I ended last season in silver 3. I adapted the mindset I described, in the pre season, and focused solely on improving my own play. I know it's hard to graciously accept a loss when you know it wasnt your fault. But I learned to start recognizing my mistakes (even when my team is winning) and that even when my team mates do much worse than I do, there is ALWAYS something I could have done better. and after being placed in bronze 2 this season, I have climbed to gold 2. Far surpassing my rank last season.

Edit: when I say thing like "focus on the fact that YOU didn't notice" etc, I don't mean beat yourself up about it. I mean acknowledge that you didn't have enough information (vision/awareness) to warrant trying to make the play. Or acknowledge that you underestimated the sieger's strength. As you start to consciously acknowledge these kinds of things as a mistake, you will slowly start to sub consciously ensure that you've made the appropriate check beforehand.

Some scenarios have no positive outcome. It is your job to minimize the losses. In the case of being seiged, losing the tower is better than dieing in the process of trying to defend it. The hardest part in that kind of scenario, is figuring out how you can get something (if anything) out of it, safely.
