I’ve got a question for you

#

Why do you want to climb?

#

Do you even want to play league of legends?

#

Why do you have to get good at league?

But he is right tho

#

Why do ppl wanna force themselves get better ? Ego ? Showing off ?

royal coyote
#

to get better ? by yourself

#

If you have to force yourself to get better, sounds like you aren’t playing league cause you want to

#

it’s more like you are just trying to fit in with a group that interests you

i wanna climb ranked but my skills aren’t the best and I kinda just wanna be good enough to where I can carry most of my games if my team is losing. i would link an op.gg but I literally have like 4 different accounts in different elos from like silver to gold idk I kinda just wanna be good enough to where I can old my ground against diamond ish players

#

if you want to force yourself thats usually a bad sign

#

you will get burnt out really fast if you force yourself to play

#

its better to try to play for fun (if possible) or take a small break and come back

#

play on 1 acc play on 1 role and play on a small champ pool

#

focus on fundamentals

#

watch vods and guide videos

#

review your relevant champ builds/runes and tech

one thing that will help u is using your * prime time * its the time after u are warmed up where u r games will be the best maybe its just for 2-3 games but thats enough and after that u maybe watch your vod and try to look for mistakes or hop on a smurf

#

most basics things to learn are wave controll ( to roam , recall or deny cs ) trading jg tracking these are for the earlygame and the most important thing to easly hit plat or d4

Basically what RDM said is the best answer

#

You have to do all of those

#

and not just go 1/4

#

if you want to climb and become good as quickly as possible

#

you said it yourself

work on your skills then

#

what parts of the game can you improve?

This is the ward I use when I start Bluff buff to make sure I am not dying on a Red buff lvl 3 invade.

Do this exercise in your next games to find very easy ganks. You really ONLY need to look at the mini-map for this but a combination of F-keys helps as well.

If you see enemy ward, use their vision to your advantage by avoiding it.

i cant count the number of times this ward has saved me from a late invade on my buff

#

you ward this and ping your laners to hold other areas, so enemy cannot invade for free, this alone is a big step in consistency in your games and not flipping early game

#

I even go a step further since my champ doesnt need a refillable for clear I buy regular potion and a control ward and I do the 1:14 trinket ward into either 1:control ward my opposite buff for a potential enemy jg invade so you can vertical it

#

or if its an aggressive jungler like reksai or kindred or lee sin where they can just jump you

#

you put the control ward on the entrance to the buff in the river

#

if you cannot buy a control ward first buy (and you don't play a fullclear champ) then its not a problem just skip a camp on the other side so you can secure both your buffs and deny the enemy a potential invade

#

another reason why having a small champ pool is so important, you want to have champ specific things on complete auto pilot and muscle memory so you have the empty processing space for in depth jungle tracking (and checking lanes for a potential gank), if you have to think of how to use ur abilities and how much damage your things do to the camp you cant do that

#

good way to know if you can clear on autopilot is to look at the map only and clear

#

you should be knowing what to click and where to move automatically without looking at the screen basically

#

focus on these things here and you are good untill d4

#

so its: consistency (not flipping game early, not losing buffs to enemy invades, invading their jungle if they show or gank etc), jungle tracking (ganking, counter ganking, knowing where the enemy jungler is and when his buffs are spawning back so you can predict his path and ping ur team so they dont randomly die) last is just small champ pool so you can have everything on autopilot and can focus 100% of brain power on whats important
