How to Get Out of Bronze

Play support the entire time. I am learning, from even the nasty comments I got about it on the board, playing support until you are out of it is the only way to get out of bronze. The players who think they can play support in bronze don't know what they are doing. None of them buy wards or a sightstone. None of them build correctly. None of them know what the heck they are doing in terms of their role. I finally understand why everyone tells me to play support mainly in ranked until I get out of bronze, because the players that go support don't know what they are doing and refuse to accept ANY help.

The problem with playing support in Bronze, however, is that you have to deal with an ADC whose decision making is approximate to that of a two week old dog with a keyboard.

For those of us who actually enjoy supporting (read: supporting an ADC who doesn't suck), Bronze is hell, and I, personally, would much rather go jungle and support my team... or penta on Diana, as the case may be.

Indeed, and I've gotten flamed for taking cs when my adc is at base, where that gold is useless.

Support is possibly the worst way to get out of Bronze, unleast you have a good adc that is smurfing or knows how to play adc very well. My friend has been only playing support for 2 years so far and she hasn't even gone close to getting bronze 1. I came along and I just ended up carrying her to gold 4. She is a good support, being able to keep up with low gold players and able to win games with out me now that she gets matched with decent players. Even if you do get fed as a support champion, your chances of still winning is still low since you probably won't be able to do much since most supports just contain cc in there kits with very little damage. If you want to try to get out of bronze just by playing support, TahmKench is the best champion for this. Good cc, really good damage (can even 1v1 the enemy adc), and can help his adc when he/she screws up.

I got out of bronze by playing teleport/ignite nami, that way I could murder bot lane thanks to ignite, while also ensuring that my top laner wouldn't feed out of his mind because I could TP to support him when I saw him doing something crazy :P

that and midlane Clarity anivia... the amount of people who just blindly all-inned me because I was oom only to find themselves dead two seconds after was unimaginable

Support is so easy tho lol. Just zone enemy , ward, and set up plays. I found lately with TahmKench it's almost to easy. You can save a ally from about any situation with his w.

I main the jungle and ive been playing premades for a while now where this doesnt work

But all u need to do in low elo is know basic mechanic of your champ, take an easy one like reksai with nice early power

Look at 2 things wich lane is overextending and how is your laner doing in this lane

(Chances for counter gank r kinda low in bronse especialy if u ward while going there

enemy laner overextends early game chances u can kil him alone r reasonable the 2v1 is usualy really easy unles your laner had to much poke Afther u get the kil or push them out a lane Farn up or gank nearby lane if possible

once laner returns in low elo they usualy either start of deffensice and than go agressive trying to push and make plays Because they think i just died i need to kil him to get even fast!! this is when you are there to kil them again if u manage to do this another time and your laner didnt mess up uve basicly put this lane out of game and if the enemys didnt get fed on your team mates yet you should go and get then fed since ur ahead on everyone this doesnt mean go 1v3:p
