Right after I got plat 5 I lost like 8 in a row and was like screw it I'm going to play on my gold 5 smurf. After I got my second account to plat 5 I gave it another shot.Just gotta keep grinding learn how to control your tilt if that's an issue for you. Branch out to all roles. I basically don't give a shit what lane I go anymore because I can carry from any of em (well jungle is a toss up, but I almost never have too). I main adc the most.

Find champs that you love to play and are strong in the current meta. For example, a bit ago there was the Jinx craze (I still think her kit has way too much with not enough weaknesses) and I refused to play her. At that time I was playing mostly Draven or Ezreal which I could do well against her with. After a bit I just found myself bored of those two and not carrying like I used too. Enter my current favorite champ Kalista. Did very well with her until recently. The top 3 adcs I go verus most atm are Caitlyn Ashe Vayne . All 3 of which I hate laning against as Kalista, and can't snowball nearly as often. So I pick what I think is bes against their team now instead of auto-locking her every game no matter what. Now today I had random success with Ahri mid carrying 4 games between both my accounts. Two or maybe three of which I was vs Azir WHO IS REALLY POPULAR ATM and found the match up pretty easy, with high kill pressure for me. See where I am going? Of course it's not the champion it's the player, but I feel your matchup starts to become much much more important in plat because people know how to abuse advantages much better. I've been winning a lot of games recently while getting destroyed in lane pretty bad as well.

Playing the game is how you do it. I've been no-lifing it hard this summer and when I am in my zone playing my best I am pretty sure I would fit in just fine in mid diamond games. I just got plat 3 today, nothing huge at all. I was stuck in silver last season and climbing out of silver 2 to plat in ~100 games this time around. Everyone has near limitless potential on League IMO. Unleash yourself and don't hold back. I always end up writing an essay about this kinda stuff. I'm done tonight, but add me if you wanna chat at all.

I just recently made plat 1. My opinion is this: you should start maining 3 roles and 5-10 champs. Unless you are a godlike 1 trick pony, you need to be somewhat versatile, yet also have deep knowledge.
