Tips for silver V player

Nicenajo·10/22/2014, 10:41:13 PM·2 votes·454 views

So I was playing ranked nothing too special. I get to 99 LP and then... I go on a losing streak and end up at 0 LP and at silver V.It was really unexpected and I don't want this to happen again. I keep losing and losing. My tactic is usually just play the game good. If I mid, top, adc , or sup I just stay at my lane. I always harass in lane. When I jungle I usually get to lvl 4 and then start ganking, pretty basic,but now any and every role I play ends up in a loss.No matter how fed I get or how good I do I lose. When I get fed, should I roam and assist other lanes? Should I gank more frequently? If you are fairly experienced and can help me then please do.

Search for the platinum vs silver custom games, join them, get wrecked, and then receive advise about what you did wrong.

when ahead, either really push your lane in and force them to you (without you dying) or roam.

If you're losing pretty consistently, it generally means that you're operating at a lower skill level overall. There can be a lot of things that contribute to your losses. A combination of shoddy csing, lack of understanding about map pressure, poor grasp of your champions' mechanics, using a bad build or rune/mastery page, and so on. Combine these with a hundred tiny things you may be doing wrong, and it all adds up to losses against Silver players. You might already be doing SOME of these things right, but the others are dragging you down.

Watching streams, watching YouTube videos, and reading guides/forums can help with some of that. You can also post replays or videos, or have someone spectate you.

At a glance, I notice that your Nasus build is very light on CDR. Getting Nasus' CDR up will help you with cs in general and also make sure that the majority of your last hits are Qs. It also increases his damage over time because (duh) more Qs = more damage. Consider getting a Kindle Gem or Glacial Shroud very early, and buying the other as soon as you've upgraded the first into a full item (or even before then, if you feel like you need it). I also see that you don't support often, but when you do, it's as Annie with no Sightstone. You'll want to fix this immediately. Vision for the team is worth a lot more than extra damage or extra health.
