I think that I meet a lot of feeder and AFK players in the past few week and my rank keep dropping like crazy. What should I do because I want to get out of bronze elo.

i garantee you. being bronze has nothing to do with feeders, trolls and afkers.

As I play rank, every game I have at least a troll or a person who afk in the middle of the match

bro. i was bronze 4 when i started playing last season so i know what bronze looks like.

there are no other reasons that you are bronze other than u suck. Stop lying to urself. once u realize how shyt u are at the game, you will start to question urself more and less ur teammates and you will see you will make less retarded plays.

my advice is to

main 1 single champion in 1 single role (not support).
figure out in what conditions u can kill ur opponent in an all in and as soon as possible (exemple: tryndamere beats darius lvl 1 if darius doesnt have dorans shield and trynds gets fury from the first 3 melee minions of the wave. all in at lvl 1 every time if darius does not have dorans shield. if darius HAS dorans shield u need to get lucky with crits so not worth trying.)
dont try to kill tower unless you can kill it in 1 go. kill ur opponent, push the wave, back. never stay to hit the tower.
MOST IMPORTANT: stay live at all costs. give up tower so that u can stay alive. give up cs so that u stay alive.
help ur team. if ur top and shits gonna go down mid, go mid.

if you do this and you play well every game. you will win more than you lose.

I agree with this advice except the first point. Nothing wrong with playing support. i GOT TO GOLD MY FIRST SEASON(LAST SEASON) ((caps too lazy to erase)) It seems like a cheese way to win and it happens enough that i dont feel bad about it anymore but playing in the botlane and being a support main in low ELO means you only need one thing to win most of your games. As long as your ADC is just pure stinking garbo, youll win lane and most likely the game. The amount of autofilled supports alone will help you climb. I shit on people regularly and when you just dominate your lane, you have 2/5 people fed and the enemy starts out with 2/5 feeding. Its not a bad gig Edit: play carry supports in bronze and not utility ones like soraka/janna/lulu/karma. YUoull have an easier time climbing because with a utility support, your job is to enable your team and we all know what a bronze team consists of. Play zyra and rush a rylais. between her E and the slow from everythjng in your kit, you can peel for a carry and do insane teamfight damage.

oh well that was my experience playing adc. i felt like my support wasnt doing anything, but the people were so bad i could win 1v2.

Thats how i feel trying to climb back to gold. If it werent for the fact that i like to switch it up once in a while, I think id be a lot closer to getting back there. I like to play adc but i dont have the skills i do like when i play support. my 50% winrate is from having a 63%winrate on support and 45%adc lol

If you're talking about from a behavior perspective, you report it. Intentional feeding may result in a 14 day ban just for the first offense, so don't forget to report if someone is trying to ruin your game. AFK's are typically handled with Leaver Penalties which results in them playing fewer games and automatically losing even if the team won, but report those too to help Riot track their behavior if they aren't being detected accurately by the system.

If you're talking about from a gameplay perspective, well, you can't make them play right (or at all) so just try to focus on winning despite their actions. It's still possible to win, and sometimes the player will forget about his trolling and come back to actually help.

You try to relate and understand. And then mostly use the match to improve your skills

You lose LP.

buy a zzrot and banner of command. manage your waves so that it's always pushing and then get advantageous team fights when they split up to wave clear.

I find that less people afk or int if you're 20/0

While unfortunate, players have proved many times that you can move fairly quickly to your appropriate MMR even with trolls and feeders. Provided you do not enable them through your behavior, the enemy team has a greater chance to have a feeder or a troll than your team: they have five spots, where is your team only has four other spots.

It may sometimes feel like a struggle, but the odds are in your favor provided your behavior does not help to cause these actions. Good luck!

That's a really solid point you glossed over. "Provided you do not enable them through your behavior". I bet you an arm and three legs that this is the reason people that claim they get more trolls than the enemy team come on here to cry about it. Because their toxicity drove the trolling and feeding.

Yep. I believe it is true. I see so many people posting here because they were chat banned, and many complain about the sheer number of trolls they see all the time. It's anecdotal evidence, certainly, but I rarely see trolls in my games...so I think at least some of the trolling is due to enabling behavior.
