I am pretty sure you are just getting matched up with players who have the same skill level as you.

Understanding Theirs Also, if you are as good as you can be then unfortunately I don't think you will be able to climb out of Bronze. I understand that you feel that you are proficient in your play and that your teammates are letting you down. But getting less then ideal teammates will be an issue for as long as you play league. You will always have to deal with teammates that feed, make poor decisions, or troll. And sure losses can be their fault, but that will always be the case and if you are as good as you are going to get then nothing will change.

You keep basing it off that assumption! That's assumption is wrong. I have 4 other people I can't control. If they feed, I won't be carry. It's that simple if they break even I can. But you know for a fact if you are to far behind you will lose. No matter how good you are.

It isn't really an assumption. Skilled players find ways to win even if their team is struggling. They are not going to win all the time, but they will find a way to win enough and climb until they hit a level where they can't climb anymore. Everyone has played with feeders, ragers, trolls, AFKs, and players that just make dumb decisions. People have found ways to win despite their team. And we all will continue to get those types of players we feel hold us back. That is not going to change, so the only thing left is to improve yourself.

Sure there will be games that you play extremely well and despite your efforts you couldn't help your team and lose because of their mistakes. That will always happen, but it sure as hell won't happen every game. If you are having a negative experience in most of your games then the only thing you can do is take a long hard look at the only player that was in every single one of them. No one is perfect which means we can all continue to improve. Please remember we are talking about Bronze which is literally the easiest tier to solo carry. And considering the amount of time you have spent playing and are still stuck at B5 with 0LP I think you have a ton of improving to do.

You spend so much time on the forms complaining about teammates, insulting people when the give advise, and claiming that you deserve to be higher then Bronze, but where has that gotten you. You refuse to watch tutorials or guides and claim that they don't help you. I don't doubt that for a second because I don't believe you would let anything help you.

All I am saying is that if you truly wanted to get out of Bronze wouldn't you do everything in your power to achieve it? Wouldn't you be willing to try anything no matter how pointless it seemed in order to get out of Bronze? Why are other people climbing up the ranked ladder while you are staying at the bottom. You are completely free to keep bashing your head against the proverbial bronze floor. You can continue to be better then every other player in Bronze and still stay at the very bottom. Or you can work at changing your attitude, improving your mechanics and decision making, working with your team and understanding how to win.

You no numbers that are 3 to 4 years old to back that up!

And I have been improving every game but you refuse to notice that. I have long since not cared about what you guys say. I am just exposing you guys now.

Dragon Ball Z Kai has two separate dubs of the line: the TV version stating that "it's over 9000", while the DVD version has "it's over 8,000". In Budokai Tenkaichi 3, Vegeta again says "It's Over 9,000", as in the English dub of the anime.

But I don't watch it so I don't really care.

holy shit tbh this is exactly how i was when i was in bronze 5 season 3 i stayed there all of season 3 because i kept blaming my team for my losses but then i finally realized that it was not my team who was doing bad it was me and so i watched these guides on youtube pretty much learning about the bot lane and adc and support and then bam as soon as i learned what those video taught me i climbed out of bronze in 3 days so tbh if lyless would stop being so stubborn and start blaming himself for the losses and learn from those losses instead of bitching about his team he could get somewhere but o well have fun in bronze 5

Lol I'll check that out. Let me ask your opinnion on somthing if I may? I mainly play Bot lane and I play sivir, and I'm okay with Ashe and varus but I was curious as who do you think is one of the best adc's? I'm wanting to try somthing new but I'm not sure if I should just keep sticking to the same champ or if I should try a new one?

Well to start allow me to say I am only in Bronze 1 and have been sitting at 81LP forever because I have no motivation to play ranked right now.

However, in my opinion any champion can be strong in Bronze but there are certain adc's that seem to struggle a bit more at this level. Marksman like Sivir and Ashe are good and big on utility, but it is harder to get reliable teamwork in bronze so those qualities are somewhat lost.

It really comes down to trying out champions and finding the ones you enjoy the most. Doesn't really matter if you are winning a ton. Do you enjoy playing them and do you think you can improve with that champion. Miss Fortune, Lucian, and Jhin are three champions that I really like and enjoy supporting, (I main the support role). Kalista and Caitlyn are pretty strong choices as well, and I can say that a decent Caitlyn is so frustrating to deal with.

I hate playing with Exreals, Vaynes, and Tristanas. It seems that a majority of the Ezreal players I have seen waste their mana and constantly miss their skill shots. It seems that every Vayne is on the verge of engaging on a 1v5 in a sad attempt to be the next Gosu. And I have noticed that alot of Tristana players use their jump to engage at the start of fights and end up behind enemy lines with no way to escape.

I actually feel kinda stale with them, like I can play them and I know there abilities so I guess that's why I continue. I'm really not even worried about rank, I'm kind of just playing to get to know the game as best as I can, I feel like I shouldn't even consider ranked until I know the game inside and out yaknow? I've been playing a little over a month now and just hit level 21 I believe. I just wanna start working on a character. There's so much that goes into the game. item sets, item set changes according to what enemy builds, knowing and understanding the math of abilities and knowing when and how to use abilities. Makes my head spin alittle as I've never played a game like this before.

I actually have noticed that as well with Tristana's! Lol

I'll have a look a Caitlyn so thank you for the suggestion. ^_^

Probably too late, but if you're having trouble deciding on an adc then ask your support. Typically, adc's with low mobility (ashe, caitlyn, jinx) pair really well with tankier supports (braum/ali) wheras more mobile adc's pair well with squishier supports (morg/lucian, kalista/thresh). If your support is really good at a particular type of them, taking an adc who meshes well can usually make your lane way easier.

I would recommend keeping track of which champions are available to play for free each week and test out all of the marksman. It really comes down to which role and champion do you enjoy and feel the most comfortable with.

Just bare in mind that some marksman will struggle under different circumstances. Utility based champs will struggle if you don't have good teamwork and coordination with other players, immobile champions will struggle against heavy engage and cc, and others have difference power spikes that can cause them to struggle if they aren't taken advantage of.

I get that some champions feel stale or maybe even boring. Lucian is a top pick because he has a lot of tools to help him succeed. Mobility, Wave clear, High DPS, Good Dueling potential, and a very straightforward power curve. Not saying he should be played, but its always good to take into consideration which champions are strong at the moment.

Sorry about that. What I meant was I am sure that you are getting matched up with players who have a similar skill level as you. That is literally how to game is designed to work.

The game puts you against players of a certain skill set, if you win, you get harder competition. If you lose, you are dropped down the various levels of skill until you can start winning more consistently. Therefore if you can win over half of your games you will climb, if you can't you will fall. The issue you are currently experiencing is due to the fact that there isn't a division below Bronze.
