I thought a name change would help my attitude. And, no I didn't go and spend it on the spot. I already had it sitting there in the form of RP. But, yeah. I don't plan on changing my summoner name any time soon unless I have plenty of money.

Masquerading as a member of a prominent professional team will help your attitude? Not sure about that one. Some aspects about your attitude cannot be changed easily. Definitely not by a simple name change. Baby steps. Don't expect it overnight.

The thought behind it was I thought it would help reinforce the dream and push me to wanna try no matter what. It failed. Bronze division is just full of too many vampires that suck the fun out of everything.

I've already tried, it doesn't help. I'm still gonna be in Bronze when I get back. Just when I thought this season was gonna be a new page, I got placed BV for winning 50% of my matches. Just when I felt like I made improvement and was looking toward the season wholeheartedly. I get a damper put on my excitement after doing so well in promos. If MMR was based on individual performance, things would be better. Otherwise, I was already sick of this game at the beginning of Season V. My effort to improve meant nothing, so my effort to care dropped significantly.

Then quit. This game isn't exactly the most amazing thing to be devoting a lot of time to. It's stressful, time consuming, and you often don't even have fun doing it. Do something more enjoyable. I cut back my League time by like 90% and I'm honestly much happier. I also have been playing better when I do come back around.

That's definitely not gonna happen, I didn't choose to go pro because I thought it would be fun. Also, it's not like I have anything to do outside of LoL. Neither, do I care for anything outside of LoL aside from going to see the occasional movie on someone else's dime. I have no interest anything else, all I wanna do is sit down and practice League of Legends 8 hours a day with with breaks to theorycraft and go over replays. And, it wouldn't be so bad if my PC was good enough to live stream.

Another team setting up another feeding buffet, left at 20 after the no votes came in.

your mentality is what's holding you back lol. people dont randomly "change" in a few steps. just like life, improving at league is a slow process that can only start with a mind open to criticism. stop looking for outside reasons to fix your scenario and work with what you have.

you really need to understand that you, being in bronze, are in the lowest division in league. people who dont give two ****s about the game land up in places higher. that's equivalent to being a high school drop out. do you think employers give high school drop outs opportunities? no way. they have no credentials and either work minimum wage or have no job. what do you think happens to high school dropouts who only complain about their ****ty environment and situation? they end up going nowhere. to get out of the ****hole they're in these dropouts have to work their *** off, even if their "talents" or "potential" do exist.
that's an extreme example but the same logic applies for bronze. simply said, you don't deserve better teammates if you cant play to a higher level enough to outshine all of the dirt on your team.

people actually spend time here to give you advice, esp people like vapora who spent his time to actually give good criticism on your gameplay (and having watched some of that, you probably deserve anything from bronze ~ silver with your current skill). if i were you i'd be spending my free time watching **** like that to improve and actually looking towards your own mistakes instead of whining about teammates after every single game

I guess you don't get how much of a fossil my PC really is. I don't do anything that feels like a unnecessary chore, and on my PC everything is a stupid chore so I don't have time for it. Now, if I could get a modern PC with modern specs I would be in business, but for now. Everything is too much of a chore to care about. And, of course another game with more feeders. Gave up some intentional feed and bailed out at 11 minutes.
