coach needed to get out of bronze

kohaco··1 votes·355 views

title says it all.

i am bronze V and can advance up in rank easy, but can not get past the "bad team wall" after. Either i am not catching my bad habits, or i am not carrying well enough to get past this. (i don't know)

  • my preferred roles are everything except top. any advice is welcome.

can post here or send a shout out at (kohaco) in game

Don't run Deathfire Touch on Soraka... Buy a sightstone if you're support, I assume you probably have bad map awareness considering you don't seem to buy it too often, but I could be wrong (not necessarily as second item, but it should be early on since it enables you to also change to red trinket so you can play the vision game more). Find a main role, it'll let you learn the role faster and in turn allow you to improve faster than what you are currently doing (you can play every role, but it requires far more game sense and game knowledge than any single role).

PS: All of the info I'm pulling from is from op.gg, so maybe no the most reliable source since it seems to have a few bugs here and there considering it says you've only played 5 games today, and nothing between today and the past 21 days (and it doesn't reach past that).

op.gg was accurate, i have not been active for a while. the deathfire touch on Soraka is there because of my early game play style. The idea is that i play aggressive enough to force back the other two champs leaving the adc to feed freely on cs maybe even giving the adc a kill or two. only soraka is able to do this in my opinion because you can out heal there damage and gain higher movement speed with her Q, as long as you are not reckless. Bananas are scary in those first few minutes XD.

I agree that the sight stone is an awesome item to get, i am actually aware of this bad habit i have of not always placing all the sight stone wards at all times. or even subbing it out for something completely unrelated based on how the match is. However map awareness is i assume typically much better then my other team mates. i am consistently warning them of where enemy champs are setting up to ambush. My map awareness comes from experience and calculating statistics that allow for even just the bare bones warding totem. but i do admit that sight stone does expand on this massively, and that most people in bronze leagues have the map awareness of a gnat. For all i know, the people in higher tears could say the same about me. XD

thank you for the advice.
