If anyone wants to grind some elo pls help!

I'm in placements, I wanted yi(yi was banned); I played lee sin instead because why not. Everything was FINE all game. I got everyone ahead in lane. THEN.. they started grping without pushing side lanes and getting caught LEE SIN WTF YOU DOING???. Infernal Drake is spawning I ping it a million times, no one is ready, they all are chasing a top laner... ALL OF THEM. YI REPORT LEE SIN. I shit you not. I'm scared I the system might wreck me, I was actually being polite the entire time. What does that matter to anyone? lol. It's crazy.

Tell me, how would you carry this? You'd play with a duo. I mean right? There's so much more to be said.

For example: Plenty of people proclaim such and such elo is elo hell. They are ALL correct. Does anyone consider why? Hell no, no one really gives a shit about being objective, lots of people pretend to be objective for the sake of sounding more intelligent than they are. How about we cut the shit and just talk about some league on the forums without sounding like a bunch of douches?

My point is: there are many ppl that say they are in elo hell and they are right!

You cannot get any better if you've reached your personal skill limit (plateau) and are currently playing with other players that are ONLY as good as you. This is a simple concept. Let's take it a step further, because I know EXACTLY what 99% of you are thinking.

You 'can' get better just playing with people at your own elo, HOWEVER; you won't get better even a freaking FRACTION as quickly as if you were playing against people BETTER than you (higher elo).

This is where I really start to wonder about Rito's direction, they want to cater to people that "just want to have fun" while catering to the competitive player base. I'm really pissed that the direction isn't simple, but from a marketing standpoint... wtf ever. i get it

That aside.. You will get better at this game if you play against people that are better than you. Pushing ahead of that point if a person was to get boosted from silver 5 to gold 1 for example. He'd get better at the game 10x quicker if he played at THAT elo for a month vs silver 5 for a year.

This is what I mean about elo hell: you can make all the correct decisions in the world but your team with make wrong ones and bring you down with them, you WILL not exceed at this game simply by grinding conventionally.

Look: I lost my train of thought slightly, but I feel as if I made my point, I didn't offer any kind of solution as: you know, you don't need to be a challenger caliber player skill wise to understand the game, aka casters.

Anyway, I hope this resonates with some peoples.
