My climb

Not really important. Or even that great of an accomplishment. But I got Gold promoted tonight. Since 70% of players are Silver/bronze, i view this as "she/he knows what she's/he's doing" tier. Like a golfer who can shoot 80.

The climb happened suddenly. It took just under 2 weeks. Something finally clicked. I figured it out. And it was simple.

I played Zac.

I've always played and liked Zac. When I saw just how much better I was at the champ, thanks to loking, I started playing him more. Then I went on a 9 game win streak with him. Loss. Then a 6 game win streak. I flew up promotions and was dominating. I changed between pure tank supp going 1-1-25 and being a bruiser pain going 13-3-13. I've been saving games (down 10k in gold in 2 of them) by stealing barons or elders with my flying through the sky antics. Never surrender. Mute those that start up with anybody. Realize when the ADC, or whoever, is 3-0-1 to give them the kills. A vayne or fizz or yas can win you a game when down 25 kills to 40 if they have 15 kills.

It's been fun. It might be a perfect storm of Zac being strong right now and me being decent with him. But I'll ride the wave until it's over.

Dude congrats! That is awesome.

If you'd like to queue sometime I'd love to, I was climbing easy with Ekko but I get bored playing him everygame so I am taking a break.
