Just a little intro art from skyph on DA

Been playing for quite a long time and it would seem i've learned absolutely nothing. As far as i can see though i feel im best at learning from direct experience in-game. I know all the basics etc. Watched hundreds of vids over the years, still in bronze. Is it truly me being shit? I've accepted i'm shit several years ago when i got stuck in bronze for more than a month. I make lots of mistakes and try my best to correct it and learn from it every time. It's all split second decision making that can always be improved. But how do you learn to be better when you're someone like me and stuck trying to carry your self, and other people who are as bad as you or even worse? They can't be trusted to follow up and to do amazing things with you that could potentially win a game. Especially in solo queue where it's just so much harder to predict shot calls and when to go in. You can't win every game. Is it just my luck? idk but i hope it isn't. I've had some brief look-overs by some diamonds and a challenger or 2. They have on different degree's all agreed i have potential, but lack in communication won't get me very far. I have some amazing farming skills some tactics that work for me. But again, without a reliable team i can only get so far. I've had maybe 2 or 3 people suggest maybe i just need a duo partner. Did they mean i just needed a boost? I just want to get to high gold so i never have to look back and worry so much again about being dragged down. The difference in game play is almost dramatically different and bronze for me is just too slow.

In the end, i need help. I have curse. I have a main in all roles. i good variety if needed.

If i had to describe my gameplay, i'd say i'm a build up on assassin/tank hybrid with good adc skills. Im generally bad at mages though so never expect me to mid much unless i'm fucking around or trying something new.

I'm reeeeaaaaaalllly bad at math. So i mostly read a lot of pro suggested guides on building champs. I'm broke buying a new champ every month and i don't have many runes or rune pages. I don't know how to properly build a rune page.. Masteries are a personal preference and you suggesting things would be nice but i'll need a good reasonable explanation for changing it. I need explanations for a lot of things if you want to change me and the way i play the game. We're all different.

I'm looking for someone dedicated to helping me get better. I wouldn't be here making an insane long forum post asking for help if i didn't mean it. I will NOT hesitate to unadd someone who mutters the phrase: "Well then i guess that's why you're bronze." That's just a plain aggressive, dickish move man. I will also unadd anybody who probably didn't read this post as well. I don't need you asking r%%%%%ed questions when it's all right here. It shows you don't pay attention or you're too impatient to have a decent convo with.

I don't like 1v1ing anybody so pls don't ask.

Champs i like to play from best to last: Adc- Jhin, Luc, Siv, Quinn, Varus, Ez, Kindred Supp- Nami, Thresh, Sona, Braum, Tahm, Lux, Naut, Janna, Morg, Bard Mid- Kass, Talon, Ahri, Sol, Vel, Lux, Malz, TF, Viktor, Karth, Galio Jung- Kah, Hec, Noct, Xin, Shyv, Yi, Reng, Rek, Vi, Skarner, Top- Renekton, Aatrox, Garen, Dar, Riv, Jayce, Trynd, Wu, Illaoi, Vlad

Oh, and one last detail.. I am in fact a girl.

I won't lie this time to make you feel more comfortable that my voice just sounds just girly. Haha.. >.>

I use to do exactly that. It works, But it doesn't help get objectives done when fighting over something important. I still do but i guess i've just gotten rusty or greedy..

it all falls together, the less you are dead the more you can do. if you die you cant do objectives as you mention, which yes i should of included that becasue is very important and goes in line with what i was trying to say.

First of all I am going to say every person in league of legends is considered to be bad. The people who are on challenger and lcs player so don't think your a bad player. The next I think I should say is when someone tells you to find a duo there is a few benefits from it. Number one is the communication factor you both will be on the same page more and because of this you will be less likely to miss communicate. The next thing I feel is if you are playing with someone you have a relationship with you are more likely to try and play better because you want to impress them. Don't think your bad because you have not succeed remember this if you don't understand any of the other things I say. Mistakes are what build success don't forget that

Sounds like Dark Souls logic. You have to die frst before you learn to beat it. Good non-the less

If you plan on staying at where you climb to, do it yourself. Climbing by yourself is by far the easiest thing to do. Theory crafting isn't necessary for success, just build what the pros build, emulate those, and you will find it works most of the time. Try to go into every game with a winning attitude and if you're serious about it get someone to seriously look over your games for you. The scariest word is "potential" as it stunts personal growth and means nothing.

Hey there! I started this season Bronze 1, went immediately into promos for silver 3 in a win streak before I started helping friends in bronze. I've currently helped 4 people out of bronze, (1, 4, 3, and another 4) I am good at math I can teach you how to set up a proper rune page I can teach you which masteries are best and why I have the communication and map awareness of a diamond (as confirmed by my multiple friends in high plat/low diamond/high diamond) and the shot calling of around a gold elo Only thing holding me back is my picks/bans in champ select sometimes and mechanics on certain champions I'll gladly help you if you have the patience for me to explain things and how they work and why they work Feel free to add me since I currently not at my PC, but I will be available all day tomorrow, and afternoons-night (pacific time) all week and I am an 18 very well mannered and don't get angry easily See you on the rift

I'll be more than happy to tutor you in league and help you get out of bronze. Last season I was Gold V and started this season bronze 1. I'm currently Gold V so it I proved that leaving bronze is a possibility. I added you in game with the same ign.

I got out of bronze many years ago but the new problem I am having now is that I can't get past Gold II. My advice to you is just master one champion. I mastered one champion and used that same champion for 4 seasons and I got out of Bronze easily. I have been to low Plat but I will tell you that players in high silver and high gold are much better than plat v'ers lol. That said, I think Quinn is sexy and I want to lick her face and then i want to become valor's slave. Cheers and good luck with your climb.

Hey! I'm part of a community called TAW (The Art of Warfare). I'm part of the League of Legends division, where we get together twice a week to play a custom vs each other, it's great for learning how to better yourself as a player (if that's what you're looking for) and to meet new people! We currently have 50+ active members of the League of Legends division (for NA) who are on Teamspeak throughout the day, so there's always someone to play with. If you're interested, you can check out my thread HERE, or you can check out TAW.net!

Feel free to add me in-game if you have any questions

Why do you have a main for every role? You need to focus on 2 roles that you want to play. This is not season 5, this is season 6 dynamic q.

One of your more common rank plays is the ADC role. Though you are using jin. You admit you are not great at the game but you are picking one of the most demanding positioning ADCs in the game. Take safe high mobility champs like EZ or lucain. These 2 champs are extreamly safe and can do lots of damage.

If you want to real talk strategy you can message/add me in game. I have helped 10 different people climb out of bronze before. I do this by finding your weakness and addressing the problem or using a gimmick strategy to work around it.

Heads up, I am brutally honest and will not care about your opinion when stating mine. I will not talk focus on why your team lost it for you, i will talk about what you did to cost your self the game. I am a strong believer that you decide your games, and it is up to you to drag your team across the finish line. Yes 5% of the games you will not win no matter what, but you can always learn something form them.

Hello Barbwired Mind. I'm level 30 Bronze 2 and main Jungle/Mid. I would love to play with you as I believe we could help each other get better. I'm not all too sure how to use Curse but I have it installed. Just let me know if you wanna play and hopefully we'll give each other good tips :)

Pomatomaster1 votes

Hey Im Bronze 2 and also a Girl :), i have curse as well, maybe we can see if we mesh well in ranked! I added you on league, on the same account!

Bronze 5 seeded at the beginning of the season, currently Silver 2.

My best advice is to pick someone that low ELO players won't know how to deal with but you can still easily play. Think of the champs you HATE facing but you don't face often - those are the ones you want to learn.

Irelia is a REALLY good example of this. Her recent buff makes her pick/ban it seems (even though shes still far from being OP) but before that she was very balanced. She has a lot of tank AND a lot of damage. Multiple build paths. Point-and-click Stun. Simple Mechanics. It'll take you about 20ish games to get the hang of her then you can go into ranked. I personally used Irelia top and Elise jungle to climb out of Bronze. Literally only those 2.

Another tip is that, especially in low bronze, people have NO map awareness. Play a strong, simple split pusher (Kayle, Jax) and just go top every game. Stay in your lane the entire game, push to win. My friend did this to get out of SILVER, so it's still an effective strategy in Silver and even Gold.

Last tip is to main 2 champs in 2 roles. For me, those were Irelia/Kayle for Top and Elise/Kayle for Jungle. I never touched any other roles, got top 70% of my games. Had a 70% WR on both Elise and Irelia throughout the entirety of bronze, even against champs that are supposed to hard counter them, simply because I was better because I mained them.

A little side tip too, don't worry about counterpicks! Even in gold, counterpicks mean NOTHING. Play who you're good at and who you have fun playing. That's the fastest way to climb - have fun!

Heyo, i have done coaching. I sent you a add if you're interested. If you have the heart for this game like i do, i am 100% positive i can transform you. I have coached a few people, and have helped gotten them a few divisions over just a few weeks, or even one person a whole TIER (silver to gold) over just a month or two (that is crazy fast).

This is my smurf account, my history with league of legends is. Masters season 4, masters s5, and currently diamond 2 this season on main. But yes...I am 100% confident i can transform you into a new player, if you have the passion for the game. Please accept friend request if you're interested.
