all bronze is now is teammates tilting eachother just had a jinx bot who was tilted once her lulu supp dced for like 3 mins, i told her to farm and she'll outlevel the bot lane ( i had soame thing last night with ashe into kog and still crushed lane) she didnt listen and decided to try to engage. Once lulu came back jinx said "outlevel? olaf is 7" (she was 6) i tried to explain that she died a lot allowing them to outlevel her, she then attackted the fact that we have 10 kills and i havent been in on once, so i fire back that kill participation doesnt matter in a cs lane, she comesback with cs is lame

Like were winning renekton has 6 of the 10 kills their yasupo is 1-9 why are you picking fights with me, honeslty bronze is a joke.

I havent played ranked since MSI since teammates just tilt eachother when they're winning and then lose and blame the rest of the team

Bronze is a shitty environment that is true. There are toxic players at all elos but bronze definitely the worst. The good news is most players in bronze are not that good so if you focus on your game and staying calm you should be able to carry enough games to rank up. It may seem tough or not worth it at first, but i gets better once you get on a winning streak. Bronze is all about learning what to expect from the players around you and carrying games based off that.

Like if I had a smurf account in bronze right now and really wanted to rank up I would play champions I feel I could hard carry with and just spam that each game. Even though I am now a jungle main, I would probably avoid jungling unless I was going to play an assassin. I personally would play Annie mid is she is easy and I know I could beat most enemy laners and get super fed and delete 3-4 enemy players in team fights later in the game.

Or in the past I would play adc. Bronze adc is a shitty role just because supports and teammates cannot be trusted to peel. But at the same time I am good enough to generally beat the enemy bot lane and get a lot of free kills, which I can usually use to hard carry the game regardless if I have peel from teammates.

Just have to figure out what your comfortable with playing and go from there. Just ignore your shit teammates and focus on stomping the weak players on the enemy team. Focus on covering lanes that has no teammates in them since after 20 minutes most bronze players just gather mid for ARAM. Push out top and bot (without getting caught) and get that farm. Then look for opportunities to kill enemy squishes and just snowball the game with your item lead.

I have done it many times in the past and would love to carry out some bronze games again. But that requires leveling another account/throwing placements and then playing with toxic teammates. Which is work, unethical, and gives me a headache/would make me an asshole and I don't want to be an asshole anymore. Just focus on having fun and laughing at how bad everyone is around you. Use playing through bronze as a good time to buff your stats. I remember in season 4 or 5 I had an account in bronze where I just played random adcs on. I was averaging 25 kills a game with MissFortune before the adc update, which I thought was hilarious and had a lot of fun doing.

I think if you're good and matched with bronze / less skilled / raging (don't have to be bronze or less skilled) players that they're more likely to turn their attitude around when they sense a win... I don't know for sure. Maybe get really good so you can lead by example?

Ya it's weird how easy it is to 2v1 bot lane sometimes. The opponents get anxious to not let you out level them and do stupid shit and u can poke em down and they'll still dive you usually. I don't remember a game where my support afk'd and I didn't win lane still. Sure if your lane opponents played smart it's a clear disadvantage but since it's 2v1 they just go full retard.
