How to win in gold.

Ok I don't know why people at lower Elos think split pushing, farming by yourself or just in general not grouping is some effective strategy because it throws the enemy team off.

Stop

I'm getting frustrated beyond all reason by the amount of teams I've been on recently that do this.

Want to know an effective strategy? Get a kill, or a few kills, push a tower. Get some more kills, get an inhibitor. GROUP UP AS A TEAM AND PUSH A DIFFERENT LANE. So you either stall it out while your super minions run a muck in the enemy teams base, or the enemy team has to back to take care of it and you push more towers.

This isn't a ranked 5's, our communication is through quick messages and pings. It's harder to pull of split pushing strategies like that in solo que. Does it work, and can it work in solo que? YES! It can work out phenomenally. Is it more effective than just grouping as a team when you're ahead and the enemy has an open inhibitor at a gold elo? No.

So seriously, stop stalling games out into some split push and farm fest and win the game if you're ahead.
