Best champions for every lane to carry out of bronze - a guide and a question.

Tuná··1 votes·4,289 views

I'm wondering what champions are the best for carrying low elo games. My current picks are pretty good some I love some are just ok so let me just go through my current champions in detail.

Adc - Twitch, I love this champion, he's funny, fun to play, and really lightens the mood. He's also amazing to trick low elo players with the invis thing. His slow makes bronzies run so you just stack the poison and E which does a ton of damage and you can usually dive a turret shot to get a easy kill. and with a frozen mallet (call me crazy for using this) is just fantastic for kiting and sustain. I really don't think I need to change my adc champ but good to ask for anyway!

Support - Blitzcrank or Thresh, This one is quite self explanatory, hooks no need for your adc to engage, knock ups, keeps the enemy away and adds to the hook. aoe ults I like the thresh ult butter because it slows and you really don't need more damage but both are great ults, I personally like the blitzcrank speed up against the lantern because THEY NO CLICKY ON LANTERNZ!!!! and I actually main support, so I rlly don't need help deciding on supports either!

Jungle - ?????? I really don't know what to pick for this role, I love jungle but I have no real champion that I've seen that are really just the most useful for low elo. I'm looking for once that can do huge amount of cc in team fights and can hold hands with ganks.

Mid - Zed, was the first 6300 champion I've ever gotten, so I'm experienced with him and to be honest, I usually win lane! The best way to play mid in bronze is to play it very passive poke type of way. I never go up to an creep and hit it, I use my q to cs and my shadow to run away from ganks, and whenever my foe comes near I simply through a q at him. He runs off I farm more, this also allows me to stay in lane longer so I can get more farm and be a beast in the mid or late game. Also, whenever someone goes ham on you just go ham back, most likely from the poke you gave him you will win the fight, and if your scared of ganks buy wards.... also you have your R to go back to if you're getting ganked. but, is there any champion that can do this with more of a team fight impact. I find myself just sitting at the back waiting for everyone else to go in then I just cleanup. and you never know how people are going to engage in bronze!

Top - ??????? I literally have no champions that I have a good win rate, I lose more than I win at top because I really don't know what to pick top, I have loads of champions that can top, but I don't really have any champion for top that I'm good at I can carry like 9/3 as Fiora but she doesn't really have a great impact in team fights. The rest of my champs I just am not really good at and I don't know really what champion to practice with because I have no clue if they will be helpful in team fights!

I've practiced warding and all of that and, in my opinion I'm okay at warding and csing and all that fun stuff. However, I have no clue how to tackle something, how to deal with people on tilt, or uncooperative, I just find it frustrating to have a person who mutes me for asking him to come team fight or ping him to back up. and just rage in general, I try calming them down. The just get even worse. Just what do you exactly do to deal with these people?

Thank you for reading my very long thread, and I hope this can help while I get helped myself!

zed should not be played in bronze

Riven for top

I like amumu for jg

for adc i think someone that can peel for themselves and do enough damage to carry while also being able to win lane... so cait

What reason should zed not be played in bronze, I have a lot of experience with him.

Riven is a champion I own and I can practice on her she seems viable enough.

Amumu is also a nice champion that I will try out.

I will try out Cait to see if she fits my play style.

Thank you for these suggestions!

Thank you for this suggestion however.

Just reread what you said, I understand she's not very good anything above silver mb!

Thank you for the warning!

Morgana support works pretty well in Bronze tier. Bronzies really like Blitzcrank for some reason. Make them regret that decision. Ashe ADC is nice. Even when you feed hard you can still contribute with the team with your ult. For mid I really like Lux. Long range, lots of CC, short cooldown on her ult. Jungling I recommend Udyr. He can power farm like Master Yi, but unlike Master Yi can contribute more than just raw damage. Top lane I would say Renekton. He can be a lane bully early on and can help your jungler focus bot lane if you dominate top.

I've already tried Ashe and I like twitch more due to the fact he is a team fight god. I will try out lux, I own master yi but not udyr and I might try out udyr, but for now I will stick with trundle and the new person, yi! oh, and for renekton I have been eyeing him for a while and will play him when I get the chance to buy him.

And buy a blade of the ruined king if you play Twitch. I find it works better. Gives you a slow and also heals you. And the increase in attack speed means more poisons.

Will add the BORK to my build!

For top, fiora, darius, and riven are really strong...at least in bronze or silver.

Tuná1 votes

I own all 3 fiora being above the other as for darius and riven I don't like darius and riven is pretty good and I will use her in the top lane.

The best champs to carry with are the champs you're best at.

Tuná1 votes

Indeed! I have a couple places where I need a better champion for my playstyle.

T RexHasTinyArms1 votes

I would suggest nunu for jg.Bronze can be won by getting 5 drag bc teams don't end fast, and nunu makes adc or any auto attack based champ destroy towers with blood boil. Just focus on stealing buffs, farming for tank items, and getting drag and baron any chance you can. Nunu solos drag easy so invest in a pink and watch for their jg going too or their bot lane backing to buy when you're still has decent up.

As for zed mid, the reason to not play him is just that you lose so much of his power without good mechanics. If you have the mechanics to play zed at a level where you aren't better off with another champ, the. You won't be bronze or silver. Personally I did a happy dance at my keyboard anytime someone locked see as I was climbing bronze to and silver. Bad players will lose to a zed in bronze and silver, but anyone who is going up in rank instead of down is probably 9-1 in games they played against zed. I know I had a 90% win rate against them with anything other than glad (I'm a terrible glad lol)

Suggest an champion to replace zed in the mid lane because I currently have no real good passive poke mid laners. I'm thinking swain for the mid lane but I'd like to know what you think

T RexHasTinyArms1 votes

I love swain bc he works top too where you don't have a primary option, and with the roa buff in a few patches he will get stronger. I am preferential to heimer as a top mid option, and ziggs and lux are good poke and high damage. I also think and is may be strong with the up coming ap item changes, but she isn't poke and really is a lot weaker if you don't get blue.

Tuná1 votes

If lux is blue reliant then I won't get her because nobody gives up blue in bronze. I am going to try out swain though.

T RexHasTinyArms1 votes

Lol the word anivia should have been in that line :-) I'm looking at picking up anivia myself, but swain is a good choice bc he can go top as well as mid, and he brings aoe cc. Note that he is weak early so you gotta make it to six without losing too hard and post six he is super mana heavy if you use your ult wrong but since he goes top regularly he can obviously make do without blue.

Tuná1 votes

I will rather get swain or naut, I am very close to 4800 ip.

T RexHasTinyArms1 votes

Naut is a good supp or jg option, but I'd recommend swain if you like his style bc you have supports you like and you can get nunu for 450 ip which is super cheap and a good jg option. So you can cover jg and support but don't have strong mid or top options. (If your zed was a strong zed you wouldn't be asking what to carry with. Zed is just one of those champs who has so much power tied up in mechanics that if you play him well he can just crush but weaker mechanics will make him pretty useless.)

Tuná1 votes

I made this post to seek more champions so I have more options and look for some tips as well. However, I do admit I'm not the best at zed I am simply mediocre at him. I also just got swain and I dominate the mid and top lane. Just need a viable jungler! (probably nunu or vi)

It is cool to see someone who seems to legit want to improve and get better to climb. Most people in silver and bronze just get offended if you tell them they don't have the mechanics that they should play zed/lee sin.

If you want to duo some time add me. I just hit gold so I'm not sure if I can duo with bronze or it is one more tier before that. I have a second account from teaching my brother/leveling with him, and I did its placements before I practiced and got better this season so it is bronze II so even if I can't on this we could always duo on that account.

Sorry for being a stalker but gl on those promos!

I am sorry for being so late I just have been busy trying to climb and forgot about this post I'd love to duo or at least 1 v 1 to learn more things about the game.

Tuná1 votes

Replied to wrong comment but right person. also I haven't been climbing elo much which means I should try other champions.

I feel rather confident with Urgot top. He has a lot of good match ups, because he has a lot of damage at long range which keeps him save and if needed he can even go tanky, He is also good at picking.

As support: definitely Alistar he is really good at staying alive and more importantly at keeping others alive.

Tuná1 votes

I'll try urgot top as I own him and alistar support I really like but I really do feel like I'm doing more as a blitzcrank.

Duke Anax1 votes

Depends on the situation I guess, Blitz is better at getting people into your team, Ali is better at getting them out.

for urgot top I recomment either item 3004 item 3071 or item 3004 item 3110 depending on matchup.

Tuná1 votes

I just bought swain and I'm dominating the lane, doesn't mean I won't try out urgot top however!

Any champion who has relatively simple mechanics while being strong, but has a major weakness that is easily exploited by counterpicking is perfect for bronze. No one counterpicks in bronze, at least on purpose.

Darius Garen - These are good top laners as long as they don't get counterpicked. Strong, easy to bully lane with, and can easy isolate and destroy enemy carries if the team has no clue what they're doing.

XinZhao - Basically everything I said above, but replace lane with jungle. Clears are pretty painless after the first, ganks are easy and effective, and his mechanics are very simple.

Nasus - Since bronze level games tend to go on forever, a champion that only gets stronger is a natural. Combine that with his simple mechanics, and you've got a perfect fit.

Blitzcrank Nautilus Thresh - There's not going to be a whole lot of dodging/juking hooks, so that often means a free kill if you aim correctly.

Annie - Simple mechanics, lots of damage, doesn't like being counterpicked. Noticing a pattern yet?

Caitlyn - One of the safest marksman you can get. Long range means it's easy to farm and do damage in teamfights without putting yourself at much risk.
