League of Legends Ranked games

So far, i lost 5/10 of my provisional games. I'm really frustrated because I really dont want to end up in bronze, I was personally aiming for silver. Can u guys help me out? Any tips?

Placement will 90% of the time place you in a tier lower than you were in before the soft reset. That's why so many challenger/masters are now in like plat 1 or diamond 5. Even if you win all of your games, you might still be placed in bronze based on your previous mmr. It's alright that you lost some games, and it's ok if you are placed in bronze. You can easily climb out into silver since you are at that skill level. Where you are placed might be based on luck/those 10 games, but where you will end up eventually is based on your skill. Use those 5 games as motivation to further incentivize yourself to play with the utmost focus and really play your best. You shouldn't blame your teammates for all of your games, but you certainly can blame teammates for a few games that are "unwinnable."

If you know you're good but you dropped all your games because trolls then it shouldn't be too hard to carry yourself out of bronze. Best advice I can give you to help you focus on your gameplay is literally mute everyone. Teammates too if they start taunting enemy team or flaming you/teammate. You don't need that negativity bringing you down.

Only thing you can do is try your best. Nothing you can do if your teammates suck.

yeah i realized but i was 2 lazy to edit. thats why i told him to add me. o.o @olympus knows what's up. XD
Also I do not recommend maining support unless you have a duo to practice with. Supporting will not guarantee a win for your game especially since it's your first season your mmr will start from mid bronze- low silver.

[quote=Floral]You could practice in normal games.
Select a main champion for each role, for example this is mine :
Top : Renekton
Mid : Zed
ADC : Lucian
Support : Thresh
Jungle : Vi

also, try to pick out strong champions in the meta
You can practice your selected champions in norms, and you can get better that way. I once faced a Lee Sin with 2500 wins on normals, yet he does not play ranked. He obviously wrecked shop, and I lost that game, although I was supporting, and this was 2 AM.

Try to ward, and if no one is shot calling, be the shot caller/leader.
Warding Tips :
Top : River bush, River bush closest to your lane, Tribush, Enemy Buff
Mid : River bushes, Bushes in their jungle (hard to explain)
Bot : River bush, tribush, Dragon pit, enemy buff
Jungle : Wherever you feel the need of vision

overall : pick good champions, ward, and practice.[/quote]

Thanks so much! I'm going to try supporting or top in my next ranked game, i really need some victories, ima have to start practicing too as u said, when does league come back online? this update is taking forever

[quote=BreakerZ]If this is your first season then you shouldn't worry to much because the default mmr you start with is sliver 4. Just win the next 5 and you'll get sliver 4-5 for sure.[/quote]
