Yeah, it took me day to rank up from Silver V to Silver III and almost a year to get from Bronze V to Silver V.

Thats what I'm saying. Back when you were bronze 5, you likely did not learn optimally.

Yeah, the only thing you really need to master in Bronze and low Silver is how to capitalize on mistakes because they make too damn many. I know first hand.

Mid Silver is when you actually need SOME mechanical skill.

I don't really think you need any kind of skill until way higher up, just the ability to not do stupid shit

In order to get better the thing that I did was stop playing.

I sat on my ass and watched pro players on youtube and whatnot to see what they did and emulated a lot of their behaviours. I'd study them and their actions; where to ward, when to back, when to gank etc.

By the time I came back and practiced a bit and tried some of the stuff out and found I was a lot better than I was playing at before.

also doing stupid shit throws the game, so avoid that

Not gonna lie, up until like gold 3 it feels like i'm playing intermediate bots now. No matter how garbage my team is, i'm more or less sure I can win the game. My winrate started to drop once I started getting queued up with diamond 5s, it'll even out completely once I get to like plat 1/d5.

Diamond 3/2 is a completely different ballpark. I feel like an intermediate bot in games with actually good people.

I mean for people who are actually in low ELO... It's different for people in Diamond.

It's like a Diamond player doing an Unranked to Diamond series and a Bronze player doing an Unranked to Diamond series. The Diamond player is gonna see things more differently and have an easier time.

I'm just saying that if you ARE in the Bronze to low Silver ELO and deserve to be there, you need to find mistakes and capitalize on them more often to deserve a higher ranking.

Silver players either range from having low mechanical skill, but ok/good game sense, to decent mechanical skill, but little to no game sense.

There are some players who are capable of farming well, outplaying their opponents, and generally playing solid, but they're just absolutely stupid in reading their opponents and knowing when to do certain objectives or strats (e.g. the permanent splitpusher, the bad baron caller, etc. etc.). Meanwhile, there's the players that know how to play within a team, when to push, when to dragon, when they're going to get ganked, but can't hit 100 cs by 20 minutes to save their life, and mess up basic combos often enough for it to be considered a pattern (e.g. the support main, the person who called mid lane veigar because he saw c9 do it, etc. etc.)
