Hi guys new to the forums

Basically its about ELO, i have a fairly solid PVP record but once i go into ranked it all goes to hell in a handbasket!!!!

What the hell is going on im down to 900 now and all i meet is flamers and leavers and feeders (though my record is nothing special)

what can i do to get out of this slump?

Well I've dipped down to 800 elo and have since more than doubled my elo, what I'd say to do is to stick to just one role and one champion pick a champion that's not played very ofetn so you can get them every game and as such get better at them! Best of luck, yehosera, out.

Welcome to Mobafire.

There's many who will complain like you do,
about the people you meet in ranked. It's totally
understandable. Many teams aren't made in heaven, by
any stretch of the imagination. There seems to be a kind
of consensus, I think, that if you wish to get out of this
"elo hell" (despite some say it doesn't exist) or just raise
your own ELO, you ought to focus on one or two roles and a
small number of champions. Master them. Carry your team.
If you'd like some more tips perhaps, on how to improve your
play and thus perhaps help you get higher ELO, check my profile
blog about 20 ways to get better.

Not a dig or a flame, or anything like that, but I'm curious. Why DO you type like that?

you really just need to learn to carry. get fed on a greater scale than your teammates feed, give good calls, be a leader, carry, win.

Pick your best role and get a snowbally champ. Snowball very hard. "Killsteal" if necessary. Just win. Also, don't just win your lane. Stomp the enemy into the ground so they have no chance of being a threat later on. Make them rage and play badly as a result of that anger.

Works, I guess. My personal problem with going ADC on rankeds with strangers, is that if they get too good gap closers (say Nocturne and Shaco) I might get initiated early on and totally ignored by my team mates. People just don't get the whole "protect the carry" thing at 1350- Elo
