SOLO ranked

I don't want to sound like I'm talking about myself. But... I started playing last year when Jinx came out. I only played a couple normal matches a week until this holiday season. (Less than 300 wins.) Poro King mode and ARAM are fun and imo good for becoming more familiar with a broader range of champs. I didn't touch ranked until yesterday when I saw that the mode was now available for me. Something about having purchased my 16th champ I think. Went through provisionals and got placed Silver 4, completely bypassing Bronze.

Here's the important part. The provisionals were ridiculously bad. Constant AFKers, trolls, and really bad players. On the other hand, I had one match where the other team was clearly far more skilled than anyone on my team. It was hard to get a good game and I felt constantly frustrated with the mode. I wanted to say "Ranked sucks ballz. Going back to normals." But I stuck with it. Once I got placed games were a lot better. Or at least a lot more consistent.

I think what happens is a lot of people just boosh their way into ranked by buying a bunch of champs, rushing 30 in bot games using their favorite OP champs, and then "Imma 1337 pilot!"

If I can humbly offer 2 pieces of advice, they are stick with it, and ward everything. You can never have too many wards.

xXProEraXx as a completley unoffical league doctor I have dignosed you with a condition that is called frustratus. Common symptoms include making forum posts like these, lashing out to teammates in game because of your our their performance, and having the mentality that the game is wrong not you. You have shown to have at least one or possibly more of these symptoms. But the good news is, it's not bad that your doing this. it's natural for the human being to be frustrated becasue everyone else in an activity doesn't think like them and they usual get met with failing the activity or a loss. Now the treatment: Relax: Take a break for a couple of games have your favorite drink, listen to some comforting music. If you don't want to do that add me in-game and Ill help you relax. Be open-minded. Ill hopefully be seeing you soon

lawl.

I used to think like this. I bet you have no knowledge on the people you play, and assume your the greatest and everyone else is just making bad plays. Honestly I was always toxic pre- level 30. I hit 30 and watched Pants are Dragon, Nightblue3, Dyrus, Faker, etc. Gained knowledge and knew that 99% of the time I did something wrong my teammates didn't. It doesn't matter whether or not they actually failed it, it's your fault you didn't know your teammate was gonna do that, and please I swear to god, don't be a bitch in champ select. You didn't get mid, oh im gonna feed. I\ve gotten around this easily by saying "ok" and honestly it doesnt matter to me sometimes whaat my teammates do. You haave to rely on yourself in SOLOQ, and communicate when needed to. I'm on a win streak currently in SoloQ and am getting better by the day, I'm not saying Im pro or anything. Just don't be so narrow minded as the League doctor said.

The only common factor in games is you. If you are stuck in bronze, it's because you have bronze skill level. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-VE5Nc8DAg
