When there was still elo, I went so low that i felt to ~990 [~20 consecutive loses]. I must tell you one thing. I saw there, better players than most that play in high silver/low gold [~1250]. Miraculously i wont after that 20 games and got to 1300+ right before they changed elo into current divisions, but hell I got ****** hard with that, since they placed me into Silver I which was hell to pass through.
Just had a game where our bard supp went afk and brand thought it was appropriate to feed the **** out of zed mid That was my series to leave bronze I'm still in bronze
Why? Climbing doesn't count for **** in pre-season just stop playing till Season 6 pops up then climb after a couple weeks.
Also, hit Silver( ******* FINALLY) this previous season, feels good... Because of how the ******* placement system works I'll prob be put back into Bronze though for S6 and have to climb AGAIN. Maybe I'll shoot for gold in S6

he's a pretty low ranking player
the team he is facing is full of pretty high ranking players, but they're matched together because one of the people on the enemy team made a "smurf" an alternate account, meaning they have such a low rank, it evens out the rank of the two teams.
so technically they should be evenly matched
but due to the person dragging down the enemy team's ranking, being an alt account, piloted by an experienced player... he's basically ****** .
this is the equivilant of a local gun-club facing against a professional shooting team
but supposedly being evenly matched, due to the professional team having a 5 year old on their team.
except the 5 year old is being mind-controlled by another professional shooter.
Neither of those are the symbol of League of Legends. One's the Championship Series(Not the actual game) and the other is a rank in the game, highest you can get to.
Depends on your definition of elo hell. Honestly, no matter where you go people are gonna have some bad games, but I find that in diamond people are more likely to know how to not die when they're behind.
