(incoming QQ and rant)

In the last 3/4 days of ranking ive been held back from possible promos to gold so many times..I may win one or get close to 100lp..but every time im close something has to happen

-First its an afk

-Second "plat 3 smurf" jung 0/8 and adc 0/7

-third its a duo which I allowed to take bot but you can imagine what happened

-Fourth its another afk

-fifth is a guy who feeds darius after he already had a kill or two and rage quits after

-6th this lee ..we were winning..and hes one of those special guys that you cant tell if they are extreme troll or has some mental issues ....he started spewing out toxic, illogical and hypocritical comments to the whole team, on how we are noobs, baddies, saying he gave us the game on a platter, while he was 8/9, and horribly miss-smited baron just before letting enemy team take it, etc.... His was giving up and instead of actually trying to win when we still had a chance, he spent the time saying how sure he is that we wont win a fight or the game and how good he is ( and ofc how bad we are) ** then he started intentionally feeding and let enemy team win**

at this rate il be floating around high silver 1 for another 10-30 games unless I can improve enough to always win my lane and have more presence in other lanes, and if these things start happen even more often il probably end up back to under 50 LP area of silver 1

I mean, you say it's luck, but then you put at the end of your post exactly what get's you to be able to climb.

If you play "okay" every game, then yeah, you will sit there at like a 50% win rate.

If you play "at a way higher level" then yeah, you will climb.

In order to climb, you have to carry, which means regardless of you role you have to go beyond that. You have to win your lane, and do well in your role and help your teammates in doing their roles.

I'm not saying if you put Doublelift in Bronze he would have a 100% winrate, but it would be a lot higher than everyone else complaining that there is literally nothing they can do to carry their team.
