Need help climbing (gold V)

SIeeper·Jun 21, 2015·1 votes·448 views

Hey, ive been doing soloq alot lately since ive become way better in my main role(mid) during 5s. I know soloq is totally diffirent than 5s and thus play more to the situation, i never feed rage troll or hate on people but i just.. 7 out of 10 games i either win lane or go neutral and those games i will lose mainly because of 1 problem. People tend to be alot worse in my team than the enemy team, i get alot of AFK's. A feeder time to time who absolutely destroys the game for me or what is mostly my problem ( 8/10 times) people who dont even know how to play the game. They go 1v5, flame and afk. Or they dont speak at all and dont even cooperate, last game i had a feeding vladimir but that wasnt the problem at all it was the xinzhao who kept getting caught and didnt listen at all to anyone. People always ALWAYS give up in my teams, they mindlessly farm mid and let objectives be taken and if i ping for an objective or go for one it mostly ends in a 3v5. Is there any way i can do to improve my games or carry? My mechanics and farming are mostly on point(not lcs level ofc) and i almost never lose lane. In team fights i got the right focus but the team fights are more like me going 1v5 to get the AD and my team waiting till stuff is low to clean up lol. Any help would be appreciated ! Also dont come say this "get better this is your elo" im not challenjour but most certainly not gold V, ive streamt for a while and people asked me why i even play league of legends due to the high amount of toxic games. At this point im tend to believe that SoloQ is all about luck, i know many people in platinum whom i can easily 1v1 or who in 5 premade are the ones doing the worst and litterally terrible players but they always end up with games with 10/2 players in their team whilst i only get the 2/10's... Does Riot hate me or something? This has been going for years and the only way to climb for me is staying inlane push till nexus with a extremely faceroll champ.

TL;DR Help me im stuck in gold because im only in extremely toxic games.

i can help you. Should play easier champions though, sure zed and what not is working right now but if you start getting stuck its because the champs are too hard for you. Play easy ones like ori,kayle,annie and collect freel0. Stop playing ahri and yasuo you cannot control them its why you lose with them and die alot.

Yeah i cant get good with ahri and yasuo apperiantly, yasuo works for me from time to time but in a hard game i just end up straight dying. Zed work for me the best but is mostly banned, is ori really that greay? I love ori and tried her in soloq some time back but people never tend to work well with her ult etc..

just need more game knowledge wait till you hit diamond to play the zeds the yasuo's the ahri's. Ori is good because it helps you learn all aspects of the game. Ori has a small skill average but i high skill ceiling, her utility is good to help the "bad" teammates out and the damage can carry team fights if you position well. She's a great champion for solo que. Kayle you need to do the attack speed into ap build. Fizz is also okay. I would stick to those 4 and you will climb pretty easily if you play the map right. i got into diamond with kayle 65% win rate annie 70% because i heard they were good for learning the game and solo que. I was suck in gold 2 before and played hard champions.

TlDr: play ori, annie,kayle,fizz

Also you will rank up higher if you learn to control emotions in game sure they may be bad but just look for ways to carry and things you could do better so that you can carry. Also farming goes a long way, obj>farm>kills. Positivity really does go a long way. Just believe in yourself and carry the games.

Why would Zed be banned? He is in a really bad spot atm due to his ult nerf

Being positive and having a positive duo helps too. Duo with people from your 5s team. I climbed from low bronze and am 90% sure I'll be G5 at the end of the week, and a big part of it was playing with a duo who kept me positive and not tilting even when teammates do bad. Two people being positive can keep a team engaged and playing hard even when they aren't great so you have a chance to turn around more games.
