"Well there are many definitions. For some people it is a zone below a certain value of elo (3000 seems to be a popular value) where your teammates are so bad at League of Legends that they feed their lane opponents, snowballing them to a point that you just cant win the game anymore."

FTFY

Elo Hell exists everywhere, yo. Sorry to disappoint you bronze and silver men, but going up does not get much better...in fact I think it's the worst in gold ><

They are good tips but nohing that i dont do :/ , i normally rush my sightstone and get 1-2 pinks oneach time i go back to base and set them on baron/dragon, i counterward all the time and try to do anything possible but a lot of players are too stupid and still get caught or overextend even after you ping/ask them to go back like recently i got a strong Vayne game in which i went 24/4/5 and still the scores were almost even...my mid lane lost, top lane was a dumbass Nasus and jungler didnt knew much...but we outplayed hard bot lane. What almost loses us the game is this Nasus who keeps going all around the map alone getting caught/trying to take towers down and after i ask him kindly to stop doing that and stay with the team the only answer i get is "**** YOU VAYNE" so you know...too much elohell

@Drunken: I kept having duo partners but incredibly we just need 1-2 bad players to **** up a game, my best duo mate and i had the same elos before S3 started but as i said i had some bad teams and then S3 starts and im Bronze II while he is Silver III...kinda silly but happens


Well that worked for me... Maybe my teammates weren't that bad :/

Maybe if u try to make your adc roam with you to mid lane an put pressure on mid tower maybe then the enemy team has to focus on defending mid and bot tower and then you top doesnt feeds as much...
Oh maybe if you try to duo queue with someone that has a fairly higher Elo than you, you might get more decent teammates.

I duo-q'ed with a guy up to plat. He didn't know a **** about the game but his mechanics were good so i told him how to play while carrying myself and him playing a badass taric and we just roflstomped all the games. 9 game winstreak was our "best".

Now he stopped playing with me and his lack of knowledge of the game has caused him to go on a loss-streak.
Ty MM and Blood for the sigs :3 | Rammus is comming back - heard it here first!

I'm stuck in elo hell because of pro players.



Play vs pro: Lose.



Play with pro: Lose.

Truly a lose/lose situation.

Yea same thing with me astrolia. I get vs XJ9 (dodge that one), get vs Voyboy and Angush, lose. Get with OddOne, someone dodges, finally get a pro on my team (ROBERTxLEE) and our top intentionally feeds and we lose horribly =c

Altho I did get vs BruiseLeet b4 and beat him, also got with him once and he afked kinda and we lost =c

Oh, what i would do to get a game with XJ9. My favorite jungler :)

It must be kind of annoying to be paired with people like hotshotGG though. He is a good player, but it doesn't seem like the people with whom he is playing have much fun.
If I helped you out, be sure to throw me a +Rep!

To get to your true Elo while fighting your way trough "Elo Hell" (which exists everywhere but kinda thins out the higher you get):


a) Abuse the system: Play Duo in SoloQ.

b) Use the system as intended: Play full-premade only.
