ELO Hell is the worse that you can do. It is very difficult to get out of 800-1500 because the less ELO the more trolling :(

Well you see, i just picked up LoL again, went straight into ranked. Went down to 900 from my starting 1200 (didnt play whole season).
Then when i was in 900, there was.. NO TROLLS. Everyone was nice, and it was pleasant.
Over the next two days i went to 1200. Then i just started hitting trolls, constantly.
EG "OMG SOMEONE ELSE PICKED JUNGLE, I INSTA LOCK EVE SMITE REVIVE!" or "I AFK".

Usually when i win a game now its because the other team had to troll, or lose because our team had the troll.

That's sad. Trolling should be punished with temporaly ban.

Three steps to escaping Elo Hell.

1; Recognize that you're ****ing SOLO Q'ING. Either stop doing it, or recognize you WILL have bad games that are out of your control entirely.

2; Stop believing in Elo Hell. This is the most important step.

3; Improve the one thing you do have control over- Your own game. Force the wins in the close games that you could win if you were a better player. (AKA become a better player and win your games.)

Viola. Elo hell no longer exists.

Well. first of all: you cant escape "elo hell". elo hell is everywhere .. YES even 1500-1700.
but there are tricks to carry up some elo. if you know that YOU are good enough to get higher than tight now then
you should be able to get higher (elo-system). but its a teamplay game, right? so.. you have to carry the whole team.

myself i prefer to play DUO (with a mate who is lower and can play support well (low elo))
by doing this you will be first pick and your mate lastpick.
How to carry the team? Well.. get AP or AD carry :).
Seriously. Its easy to get 200elo within 3 days. 1200-1450 pepple dont even know how to counter champ like akali or leblanc.
use this advantage! myself i always use annie or leblac to get out of 1400.
1450-1600+ i just pick what is left. there ull need skill to get higher AND tons of luck to get a good team.

i know many people get trolled 100 elo (self experience) but its not ur SKILL that made you drop elo, so keep playing!
for the elo system its quantity+quality. your "true elo" you'll know after about atleast 400-600 rank matches ;)

BE POLITE!!! dont make people rage. try to tell them to have a goodgame without flame :(
we all love each other, aight?

You just keep winning to get out. Get better.


Either way (in/out of "elo hell") you're always going to have a player on your team that you consider bad. Maybe you'll be the bad player, etc. It's never going to be like "hey everyone on my team is so amazing!" it's almost always going to be like "wow he could've did this and this and this".
