I quit league 11 days ago, still regretting it!
Lol the longest I ever made it was 2 months. Then a sick champ came out (Braum) and I started up again. "League a never ending cycle" :frown:

Typically when smurfing I play super off meta stuff like Poppy Jungle. It's really fun to mess with people XD

I used to think the rank structure for this game was awful when I first started playing last year. All my friends that had been playing since season one were in 'elo hell' and had never climbed above silver. Before I was even a 30 we were butting heads about strategy and build paths. Then I got Silver 2 out of my provisional matches and got to Gold 5 undefeated without having promo games for Silver 1-Gold 5. Now I realize they're just bad lol. I got platinum out of provisionals this year and decayed into Gold 1 while AFK for a few months. They're still salty.

I wish it was this easy for me, lol. I usually do fine but a member or two of my team feeds so hard that it's impossible to carry (it also doesn't help that I usually support.)

There's your problem. Cosmic Owl has the same one. Maining support in ranked is very hard to do. I suggest working on learning some hypercarries for top and mid (and jungle if you are courageous). There are some junglers that just carry hard whether or not your team is feeding like Diana and Xin Zhao, same with top laners like gnar, irelia, garen, and wukong. As for mid lane, you could look into Brand, Annie, Ahri, and Veigar.

I play a couple of non-support champions, but usually the position is nabbed or I just don't like the matchup I'd be up against and avoid it, it's annoying, lol.

When you get good enough at a champion, match ups don't matter. I've been playing yasuo religiously pretty much since his release and match ups make absolutely no difference to me because I can outdo them with my mastery of my champion. All you have to do is practice, then your counters won't matter anymore.

Lol I went from plat 5 to Plat 1 playing support and having like 75% kill contribution. It's easy to carry as support if you know how to play it.

Well you can only do so much. I know Sumo got to diamond just playing Blitz. I suppose you're right, but it's hard to get good enough at support to carry your games.

I've never had to support in a solo q game luckily. When it came to getting the hang of the gsme, I grew up on warcraft 1 and 2, Starcraft, so my APM was already high. As for strategies and playstyle, I watched the pro leagues religiously.
