It's absolutely impossible to break an "elo hell" mentality...

... When consistently you're the only person in the game who doesn't feed your enemy laner 4 kills before the first tower is down. Consistently I come out of the laning phase ahead and ready for a strong mid game, but it feels so fucking impossible when literally every single other PLAYER on your team goes 1-3 or 0-4 for some reason. You've roamed and tried your best to keep them from getting slaughtered, but it's like I'm playing with bots. Some of these kids are literally worse than bots and I don't get it.

Statistically my enemies should be getting just as many feeders on their team as I am mine, but it's not the case. I got placed in B4, quickly shot up to Bronze 2 after destroying every game and now suddenly it's like people have lost their frontal lobes. I know people say every single day that Elo Hell doesn't exist, but COME ON.

Honestly, how hard it is to just play like a bitch and not die?

You're the only one consistently doing good? Then put some work in and make sure you do great, rather than only good.

That's how you break the elo hell mindset, by focusing on yourself and not on your team.

I feel you OP. Same thing happened to me. I reached B2 only to fall right back down to B5 because of a constant stream of the greatest idiots you could imagine. They would just fuckin feed feed feed every single game. Well, as of this post I'm queueing for a game, which if I win would put me in B2 promos for the 1st time in like 2 months. Hope this goes well. Chances are it won't. Currently on a win streak and eventually it ends with a never ending stream of morons every game after.

Yep I was right. Won the game, reached B2 promos. First game, fuckin feeders. I just fuckin ff as soon as they started that shit. Nice they all surrendered and didn't choose to waste my time. Probably gonna get a bunch of feeding teams now all the way back down to B5.

Yep I was right. Currently in a game.....15 minutes in our Teemo fed Akali 5 kills. Climbing this shit is impossible. I might just afk this game to be honest. Tired of this shit now.

Well we got lucky. We had a really good bot lane due who were able to carry us through the idiocy that Teemo put us in. So I'm B2 once again......Our ADC was really positive and encoraging even though it looked grim. Honors to that guy. Don't meet his kind very often. If it weren't for him being so positive and supportive I was sure 100% gonna AFK that game.

ELO hell does exist for sure. I had a game this week where I was Illaoi top. I took both towers in my lane, one mid tower, one bot tower, and ALL THREE INHIB TOWERS AND INHIBS. I was literally doing a 1v5 and the rest of my team literally took 1 dragon while I was doing so.

So we had all 3 of their inhibs down and still had my outer tower, all inner towers, and all of our base intact and still lost the game.

I was basically the best player in the world that game and we still lost. So anyone who thinks ELO hell doesn't exist is a complete idiot.
