Need help climbing through Silver 2

Hey all. Just looking for some advice. I have been stuck in Silver for about 800+ ranked games (yup, 800+ ranked games, and I'm stuck in Silver 2, check my profile) and I just cannot get out of Silver 2. It seems as though Silver 2 is the zenith of my career, but I know I am better than this rank. The routine that happens when I'm in this rank is win one, lose 2. ALWAYS. It's either we just get spanked by the LCS team that is my opponent, or I have a troll/feeder. So I guess what I am asking for here is any type of advice, or champion to abuse in this rank to get me past this god awful rank. I main jungle and top, but I'll try anything. Thanks!

I see part of the problem. You do what a lot of players do around that Elo. Where they seem to play relatively random champions.

I looked up your profile and what I mean by that is: Teemo 13 games Garen 25 games Gangplank 14 games Diana 13 games Nunu 20 games Taric 8 games Volibear 15 games Kennen 26 games Mordekaiser 14 games Varus 14 games Jinx 15 games

You see the point.. here's a sample of my profile: Azir 79 games Urgot 47 games Cassiopeia 53 games Ahri 50 games Elise 30 games

You wanna only play 2-3 champions in your main role, and then have a back up champion for your less played roles. Once you master a champion it's incredibly easy to climb.

Like when I play top (I main mid) I'll pick one of these champions Urgot Malphite Diana When I play jungle it's Diana Shyvana Elise For mid Azir Ahri Cassiopeia Diana ADC Ashe Urgot Caitlyn Support Leona Morgana Blitzcrank

I literately almost never stray away from these champions because I know them so well in that roll. I started Bronze 2 this season and now got my way up to Plat 5.

You probably don't need a single champion to abuse, learn lane matchups for a decent champion and you'll be just as good if not better off. And your opponents aren't an "LCS team", watch for mistakes. That's something I've seen a lot of in silver, in 90% of games the winning team will offer one or more throw moments and it's your job to capitalize on them. Don't give up because you're behind, encourage the team and stick with it, comebacks are so common in silver it's almost to the point I feel the team down at 15 minutes is more likely to win :P
