Getting out of Bronze and Silver

1. Champion select:

We all know how it works; you want to get your preferred lane and hope you get it but as we know that may not happen. So in this situation you need to be prepared to play any lane even if it's not your favorite role. By putting forth effort and a little bit of teamwork you can carry yourself to victory and earn yourself a shiny new rank! Cooperation and keeping a level head is really important.

2. Staying off tilt:

Playing on tilt can really hurt your LP and even make your day that much more stressful. The best advice is just to not play Solo Queue, if you're already stressed playing ranked is not the best move my advice is not to hurt your own LP and play normals or ARAM level out then play when are more calm and focused. One thing that helps me is I think "Oh well it happens I suppose." I take a breath and continue on. Stay salt free, my friends!

3. Toxic players:

Toxic players exist. It's just a fact. The best thing to do is just mute them and report them afterwards. Not all toxic players are bad people, maybe that player is stressed or has had a bad day. Just go on with your game and who knows you can win this game and never have to deal with that player again. When dealing with a toxic player it's better not to fuel their rage or form of stress so just mute or ignore them. After that game you don't ever have talk to them again! Being humble can go a long way!

4. Learning from others:

A good way to improve your game is watching others, seeing a different approach to your role such as an item you don't normally use or which ability to max 1st or even tips on last hitting can help you win lane and get ahead of your opponents. Watching pro players on Twitch can go a long way this is strong tip on improving your game.

 

5. Duo with a friend:

When you make the decision to queue up with a friend or another player consider what you're good at and what the team needs of you. Be polite and don't gang up on one of person or flame another keep cooperation and make those wombo combo plays! :D

6. Warding:

Vision is key in League of Legends learning the best ward spots and keeping vision of Dragon and Baron can set up a nice steal or throw by the enemy team. Or just stop or prevent the roaming from mid lane or the jungler from ganking or letting you know to back off to prevent ganks. Wards are one of the many keys to victory by winning the fight with the top laner teleporting in or a successful back door!

7. Confidence in your team:

Having faith in your team and willing to let someone else carry you can both destroy the other team and win games. Teammates will often surprise you, setting up a strong team with good synergy with strong bans can make all the difference between defeat and victory. Good synergy = the winning ace.
