Yeah, ELO hell isn't a thing.

Excepting the fact that, even if I dominate my lane every game, push towers, get objectives, all that, I still lose. With an average 5:1 KDA, it's my fault.

Fix your fucking matching system Riot. I know you don't give a fuck since it doesn't make you money, but just pull your heads out this once.

FOUR THOUSAND GAMES in silver, just ain't enough apparently. Gotta be matched with fucking morons who literally cannot play the game to save their lives. Thanks Riot.

I've played with lots of people who do nothing to help team win, but play super cautious and focus only on maintaining a good k/d/a score at the end so they can pat themselves on the back and tell themselves they are a good player. So for example, in team fight, they will not join, but wait and spectate it from a safe distance, and if there is a weak enemy or two at the end and they have their ult/flash/whatever up they will pick that enemy off and run away, meanwhile enemy team steamrolls forward and their own team loses another team fight because once again they were outnumbered. For example, the person plays Lux, never joins team fight, spectate it with ult up and blast a weak enemy or two after the team fight is over (which of course their team loses because of being always outnumbered). Then they justify to themselves that they had a good game because their k/d/a number is ok, and blame everyone else for the loss.

Pretty much these people contribute nothing to winning the match, and whether they realize it or not their strategy is basically just to hope other people will go out and win the game for them.

Not saying you necessarily are a player like that, but it is one possibility that would explain your situation.

Calling other people morons when you build TF and Warrior on jungle Poppy, who isn´t supposed to be all that offensive and Catalyst on Elise.

CATALYST. ON. ELISE.

The fact that you considered and even built that item on Elise tilts the hell out of me.

Even i thought i wouldn´t leave Silver this season. Got placed in B3 in placements, reached Gold in just about a month. Currently sitting in Gold 1, but not playing because college.

I can say with 100% sure i used to think elo hell was a thing. But i grew out of that thought and got to gold.

You´re on silver. If you want to climb, grab a champion you know how to play and a role you play your best in and grind. ELO hell does NOT exist for anyone but maybe Master and Challenger players, if at all.

League has quite an adequate F2P model for a MOBA. The same way Star Trek Online has a fair F2P model for an MMO.

The "Can´t climb cuz Riot's greedy and League's F2P is shit" argument of yours has no sense at all.

Kindly glue that pooper you call mouth and start climbing.

Your post kinda summarizes why you can't climb elo. If you are even 10% as toxic as this post suggests you are someone who will flame your team for doing anything other than spoonfeeding you a flawless victory.

Adc gnar 1400 games doesn't matter

Only way to climb is to improve yourself Playing games the same way each game doesn't guarantee you victory

Maybe you just play too safe , nothing else explains your situation

Gotta play Mid or Bot if you wanna climb outta silver. Thats why they are called a carry position. You got to carry yourself out.

69469238DEL11 votes

Only half of your advice is good. Playing bot lane in Silver is a horrible way to climb, it's the only lane where you have to rely on the person laning with you to be decent at the game.

Axe2Handle1 votes

You are incorrect. ADC is is one of the most important roles in the game. Thats why they are called a carry position. They carry the team and take objectives.

or you can just hope theres 2 decent players in bot lane instead of relying on yourself to carry (assuming your good enough to beat your lane opponent)
