Silver 5 is it possible to get to Gold before the season ends?

No other comment just want opinions look me up if you have to. I'd also like general tips on how to climb as well. I like jungling because I have to keep up with everything and it makes me feel like Junglers are naturally the people who help carry games. I at least 3 champions for each lane in my champ pool but I can play almost anything jungle if I practice their mechanics beforehand.

Well the season ends November 10th (but they increased it by two weeks last year) So ya, you could very well make it to gold if your skill puts ya there. General tips for jungle...I don't jungle main but always be aware where everyone is, as much as possible. Keep their buff timers. I've heard you shouldn't gank heavily losing lanes and gank for lanes that can snowball.

No, you depend on snow ball champs and if your behind you are useless in game. You also play champs that are all about you and try to be the one in game.

You will not make it to gold.

Took me around 2-3 days from silver 2 to gold playing around 4 games a day. If you play more, you can prob make it

don't waste your time, games will get harder and harder and you only have a few days left. Better start fresh and earlier next season. I'm in a similar position myself started ranking way too late this season.

I just watched the last 15 minutes of your Caitlyn game just now. It does look like your positioning as adc needs a little work. It is a good idea to get used to always moving in-between autoattacks even when there's no particular direction that you need to move in; this will help you do it naturally when you're chasing or being chased. There was a point when you guys were doing baron, and you were standing at kind of the worst possible spot: at the outside edge of the pit on the right side, while you guys had no vision on the right. This put you as the first champion that the enemy will see as they come in from the most obvious route (for purple team). You also don't want to bother using Q on Baron/Dragon because your autoattacks do as much or more damage in the same amount of time when you factor in IE crits and headshots.

I saw a few times when you used E in unsafe territory just to get to some farm faster. Whenever you're anywhere that has the potential for a fight anytime within the next 10 seconds (meaning: the majority of the map), you definitely don't want to waste that E. It's much safer to take the extra 0.5 seconds of walking time to keep it available for an escape.

If you feel like it, stop by my thread or my stream and I can spectate a full game to give much more detailed advice. :D Gold could be closer than you think.
