Finally promoted to gold IV but feel like I’ve hit a wall
After 10 years of playing league on and off, I’ve recently decided to try taking it serious and climbing this season. I OTP sylas mid, placed high bronze and climbed to gold iv.
Since promoting, I’ve lost 4 games in a row. I can actually feel the difference in level of play with the people here. It literally feels like the difficulty has multiplied by 2.
What are the common habits of gold players that one can take advantage of or look for to climb? Of course having champion mastery and better mechanics will help and that will come with time. I want to know how I can be impactful, even if I don’t necessarily get fed.
I do play very mindfully and talk out loud while I’ll play to help me understand why I make certain decisions. I also don’t blame my teammates. I have an open mind and am determined to continue to climb with sylas.
