Right, because carrying with AD if your support keeps trolling you the entire game is possible..... >.>

I'm at the same Elo and I have been successful with a certain thinking.

6 wins out of 7 ATM, play a main you are good at. I play lux and Veigar, which you may think are bad solo queue, but it doesn't matter if you are good, in 1000 Elo I rape the other mid lane by at least 40 farm and a kill by the end of laning phase.

Also, Janna is by far the beat solo q support IMO, positioning is key. If you can position your enemies correctly, even ******s can finish them off. I carried a game where I was underleveled by 5 and fed a renekton 0/10 , but then I stopped trolling when I realized we could win. From positioning and baby sitting, supporting is so important and makes a huge impact on the game.

At 1000 Elo, you should be winning at least 2/3 games.
yolo, teemo to strong in low elo

So what?

Trolling is stealing all your cs while the enemy AD gets all the farm? Trolling is intentionally missing a Leona ult when it could've saved your life or let you win a fight in bot lane? Trolling is building a support without any proper scalings full AD/AP?

You can't carry people like that unless your enemies are just complete ******s.. But if that's the case then you would've won if it was your AD trolling as well.

So im having an issue solo queue in ranked. So my elo is at 1039 and I feel like im better than that so im playing alot and im very consistant in the games. I rarely do badly in a game. I try to the best of my abilitys and if it doesn't work out then whatever.

I have been losing quite a bit and if anyone has any obscure tips or little things that make a diffirence it would be great. I mostly play solo top though (rumble,cho'gath and Vlad). Also suggest some good carry ranked champions.

(just played a ranked as rumble whooped *** n won)


Know what to pick and ban.
Know how to counter pick.
Know when you're getting counter picked and how to adjust.
Naturally assume your team is full of inbred morons and you're going to lose.
Play more champions in the solo top role.

Also; a good support and a bad AD is better than a useless support and a good a AD.

@ searz: yeah true, never said anything else.

but decent ad + outstanding support < outstanding ad + decent support.
always depends on the player-skilllvl and the champs

Quoted:

Then play better. Usually teams at that elo are bad enough so that you can't win even if you win your lane. You will probably need to help your other lanes. For example, if you're playing top, and your mid and bot get raped but you're raping top, roam mid, counterjungle their jungle, and lanegank bot.
Prioritize these instead of farming. If you're unable to roam then just improve your skill so that you can stomp your enemy laner, allowing you to roam.


Bumping this post, basically all you need is this plus:

The most important tip is to just stop playing ranked after you've lost a few matches (most people say 2-3), since you will feel annoyed in most of these cases. It's never good to play while tilted, but in ranked it will have an effect on your rating.


That's the safest way to go. (Read: Safest, it's by no means easy to improve to the required skill). Focus on improving yourself. If anyone trashtalks to you, simply /ignore them, don't discuss, don't try to talk back. That's a waste of time. Even if they are right and you did do a dumb move, if it really was that dumb you will have noticed that yourself and you don't need anyone else to tell you.

Also, the term "trolling" is used far too loosely - and so is the term "feeding". I recently played on a friends account some ranked to experience the 1000 rating. Out of 10 games I had 2 allies intentionally helping the game AFTER being called out "OMG TROLL FEEDER NUB GO DIE" and aequivalent. Yes, they did do dumb moves, yes they did die a lot - but it was all just flat out bad play. Nothing was intentional until the point where people raged at them and they raged back.

People often don't understand it but - team morale is more than half the game, especially in a decision-oriented-team-game.

TL;DR: Don't rage, be nice, ignore the ragers, focus on improving yourself and always try to do even more to carry. (As in the quote described)

Edit: Support carry: I carried 2 games as Soraka support directly and countless with various supports indirectly because I fed my AD carry, prevented tons of ganks via warding and cv, calling out danger when someone is about to be ganked and they don't notice and calling for map objectives at the correct times.

@Koksei
Main point being; do NOT troll as a "support".
Play your role as well as you can.
