5HITCOMBO IN THE TOP 500!

I thought I was gonna lose for sure cuz Chris11 took my Chogath on the other team and we had a jungler so I couldn't WW but I'm glad I had Sion even though I've played him only like 3 times cuz he raped so hard bot lane lolol.
I'm on GOLD CHAIN

I broke 1600 a couple weeks ago and have stayed around 1580-1620 since, which is good as I need to improve to move up.

Biggest things that made a difference to get out of low ELO is:

1) Be Flexible. Pick what the team needs, especially if you're a lower slot.
2) Be generous. Feed buffs to the right people, buy wards even if you really shouldn't be, let your carries farm creep waves if you aren't a carry, etc.
3) Don't rage. Chat raging kills so many teams that might actually have had a chance. You need teamwork to win.

Also, you need to be try-harding every game, and don't be shy about bossing your team around to make sure you don't blow games that are winnable.

Luck definitely helps. I had been steadily gaining in my rating (mostly by whoring jungle rammus) and was generally carrying my teams. Then I was reminded just how bad a team can be. Fortunately, I wasn't on that team. We dropped all 6 of their out-of-base towers by about the 10-minute mark or so. We dropped 2 inhibitors by the 15-minute mark. The game ended shortly thereafter. The only player on that team that seemed competent was the mid (and by competent, I mean did not feed and held the lane reasonably well before we gangbanged mid). All of the players were about 1350-1450 ELO.

I was definitely lucky not to be stuck on that team.
