This ranking system is a joke, and we all know it ... i mean why do i have to lose LP because of others ?? even when you have a very good game ,, you still lose , because in the end is a team game. Riot claims that their match-up system match players in teams to be roughly the same skill ... but thats a lie .. so why cant RIOT came up with a system that gives you LP based on your performance ??? My thoughts are that RIOT doesnt give a shit about players .. or the amount of time and money they invest in the game. My last game was literally a joke ... after 15 min of the game ... all the lanes fed the enemy team ... 2 towers down .. and asking for surrender .. because "the games is lost, and its a waste of time" ... So why do i have to lose lp and struggle through because other people play ranked games for fun ?

You don't lose LP because of others.

Statistically speaking, you actually win about 20% more games than you lose because of other players.

Do you use OP.GG?

Do you dodge?

Do you reserch on youtube how to use the system better?

Are you actually good mechanically?

Are you mentally capable of it?

Some of these questions are harder then others but after answering them all you should have an idea what to do.

Have a good day.

Im a long time league player (since 2014) with 4 smurfs and i can say climbing out of iron and bronze is incredibly easy. My main is plat 2, And i never have had any trouble climbing with my smurfs until i hit gold 4. (due to the huge number of people who pay to get gold 4: 0 LP, but that's another topic altogether)

at low elo's (gold 4 and lower) all that matters is DAMAGE. players are too bad that cc champs like sej or orianna just cant carry. the best solo carry positions are top with champs like irelia, darius, garen etc. (i personaly avoid riven since i feel dirty playing her but she is the best solo carry champ in game) or high damage mages like vladamir or kassadin mid lane. but all champs that have extreeme late game are the way to go at low elo's since most games are very long (30-40 min) compared to plat where most games are over before baron ever spawns. (20-25 min max) since everyone knows how to snowball.

ADC's are generally too squishy, and too reliant on having a good support to crush laning phase to reliably carry you up the ladder, avoid them if you can. if you absolutely have to bot lane, stick with champs like vayne or jhin since theyre so mobile that theyre basically dodge tanks

also if you dont know what terms like positioning, pathing, snowballing, wave freezing and slow pushing all mean,and how to use them, you are not ready for high silver or gold

Point being, climbing up to silver or gold should be very easy even if you have to 1v9 if youre good enough and play high damage champs. just keep learning [poppy-wink]
