League of Legends separates it's players into 10 different ranks. Starting at Iron being the lowest and Challenger the highest. However, Both the lowest and highest ranks in the game are home to less than 1% of the player base. One is self explainable but the other makes you wonder... What is going on in Iron 4?
Today we take a look at what's happening in the lowest rank in the game and along the way we learn about the legend Kadeem Alford.

kadem have some problems am i right? cuz its not possible to play and say things like that thats just unreal
only 5 likes no wayyyyyy
Can you review my account too. I am iron 4 with high lvs.
Can you make a video for me. I am iron 4 too. And i am lv 200.
They are scammers you try to redeem a prize and u get nothing they ask for vrif and say it's not real then scam you lol
4:14 "I flashed to confuse them" this technique really worked even the coach is confused 💀
Mind = Controlled
The move is so good that even Tyler 1 did it in challenger An it worked
Never let your foe know your next move
I mean. I remember misclicking, flashing to where I was standing and the enemy blitz though I would flash in the direction I was walking in, missing his hook and I successfully got away
He didn't say WHO he wanted to confuse. Maybe he wanted to confuse himself to make this game more challenging!
My biggest flex is that I have Kadeem on my friends list and we play sometimes
no way
now that’s a flex fr
your biggest flex is that you like to make yourself suffer? weird
I have him on discord and sometimes call him Xd 😂
@@shadowclone1598don't kink shame
i know someone who has thousands of games and goes from iron 4 to iron 2. he is genuinely so unbearable to play with because of his attitude. he spends all game complaining and being so negative and refuses to accept him and his attitude is the problem. he refuses to actually learn macro or learn anything that could help him. he insists the game is just broken and its all his teammates fault. it is genuinely so baffling why he plays the game when it makes him so miserable and obviously doesn't bring him anything good.
Bro i literally know a person 1:1 like that
Some people cannot handle the notion that they just aren't good and go into legitimate denial.
bro called me out like that 💀
Also have a friend like that but im a bit of an asshole so i decided to make him learn the hard way by absolutely shitting on him and making him realise hes dogshit at the game and hey it worked at least and he actually started learning cuz i shat on his ego so badly that he lost it 😂😂😂
@@YukkaRiiii depending on the person this method can probably work sometimes lmao
Kadeem's account is probably worth thousands of dollars. Level 600+ account, bought skins, event skins, icons, all champs, 100k + BE and naturally low mmr.

@@NicolaiLol 😔
It's funny how Iron accounts are as valuable as Challenger accounts because it is so difficult to get there without getting banned for inting
@@masterblaster2678not more me i’m hard stuck 😭😭
@@masterblaster2678and i do good i farm cs and keep a good kd almost never feed, but every game i get 1-2 dudes arguing and feeding.
Kadeem actually worked for me about a year or two ago. He's an extremely sweet guy and put his all into everything he does. He obviously has something going on which is noticeable not only by how he plays the game, but also how he works and talks. I knew who he was as soon as he became my employee, and he actually brought up league as one of his favorite hobbies. When I mentioned I also played he became very open to me, but would also say he is one of the best players. He genuinely believes that he is amazing, so it is pretty hard to get him to learn along with what I previously mentioned.
It sucks to see people make fun of him sometimes in his streams because this isn't his fault. He just wants to stream his favorite game in a place where he can make some friends and I think that is sweet. I know his gameplay won't improve much, but he really is a great guy. Hope he's doing well!
That is so sweet to read. Everyone takes this game too seriously. Is not that hard to understand some guys just want to have fun !
Nah. He's not 'a great guy'. Being disabled and impaired doesn't make you a good person and especially not when you have an inflated ego like that.
@@oscarcabrejosvilchez4703 The problem is that League is a team game. When you lose, your team has to make up for it, and every game he blames his team. You can be a nice guy irl and still be wildly toxic in game to the point of detriment. It's not that his teammates are taking the game too seriously, it's that he's actively ruining the game for everyone else just so he can play. I mean this respectfully, but he's too dumb to play team based games. He shouldn't be competing and his normals games subtly show that he knows that too, but he still wants to -play- win against humans.
What kind of services did your company provide? Im surprised Kadeem could work lol
@@SeudXe shipping, just unloading trucks was our sections role
That Tahm and Anivia duo XD wtf....imagine comming from 12hrs work and you are like yeah I wanna play some ranked games and then the game put these two on your team.
Brutal way to wind down
Really funny, because I had the same situation, when had Anivia im my team who disrupted team play. First Anvia tried to stick with me in Top lane when I played Garen, but I outplayed enemy Top and Anivia. Then Anivia stuck with ADC and from there situation got worse for our team. We lost

Sometimes you just gotta step forward and tilt your teammate by banning their pick
Kadeem's tweet about 20 deaths do have a point to a certain degree. 4 years ago there was a Reddit post where a gold Singed player got the unpleasure of matching with TfBlade on Irelia, he ended up 0/17/0 within 15 minutes and got banned for "inting" unintentionally, the worst part is that 3 of his teammates afk'd and the 4th one running it down and only he got banned (4th one maybe got banned but there is no telling if that is true). The ban got lifted but you get the point
Its pretty stupid that bad players can get banned for that. I think theres a huge difference in actually trying vs running down midlane into tower.
I think most reports are filtered and resolved with bots/AI, until socmed &/or tickets requires human intervention.
With the amount of false alarms Riot probably gets, I'd assume you actually need bots to handle reports sometimes, especially for the ingame report system. Inaccurate punishments sometimes are the downside.
the whole system is trash and broken few months ago I was playing and my midlaner die from his lane so he decided to come top take my farm from me without saying anything to make me go mid so I give the enemy top some kills and go mid they ban me for feeding and didnt ban him for troll and when I talked to the support I told them im wrong for feeding but he is the one who start the problem with his troll their respond was my feeding effect the other players experience with the game but he didnt and I should mute him so I reply to them how muting someone staying on my lane taking my farm gona fix the problem and i'll start to do same thing and when someone talk to me i'll tell them riot support says its okay and isnt something you get ban for it they keep talking on how feeding is bad and they will keep an eye on him and if he get more reports he will be baned too
@@97mah It's not you it's League, League doesn't deserve you man, Team games² didn't age well these days. Probably the worst team game of all, and the reasons are essay long, and if we talk about it, it would be endless debate and outliers.

You did buddy...
"why is 20 deaths a ban reason?"
Thebaus liked this post 🤣🤣
I had a friend who insisted that iron was the hardest elo in the game that even challenger players couldnt get out of iron. It got so annoying to hear him complain.
I convinced him to let me log into his account i played 1 game as vayne and i went 30/2 or something. Im sorry to that iron game i ruined. Please forgive me i had to prove a point.
Similar thing happened to me. Picked Diana and went 20/0 something on it just for the lols. Anyway my friend stopped talking to me after that.
Same with me as well and he kept saying his teammates were the reason he dont climb but since im a bit of an ass and i dont sugarcoat things i said to him "bro ima be real you just shit at the game" mans got mad real quick and he said "how about you do it then play in this elo" i said " ayts bet" picked my Sett built lethality for the memes and went i shit you not went 38/3/14 and the final kill score of that game was like 65 to 47 and the cherry on top was that the botlane my team had was inting and was like 4/13 and 7/16 by the end of the game and ngl to rub it in his face i told him after the game "Told ya u just ass at the game bruh" 😂😂😂
good you affirmed me that only chall players can beat irons, because irons can beat even diamond apes
@@LaplacianDalembertianUhm, no?
Op didn't even tell what rank they are. The only thing that they proved is that id u don't climb, is mostly your fault.
@@mikelito0697 skill diff between diamond and iron is near zero, what are you talking about?? Most of players are playing in garbage elo below Master 0 LP
Iron 4 players shouldn't get banned over 20 deaths, that's kinda expected for their level
Nobody should get banned for 20 deaths unless they were inting.
@@jotarokujo8423 i mean, 20 deaths is kinda inting
@@macedo1321 if u die 20 times on a champ like tryndamere u gave something close to 1 item of gold to the enemy team, and now youre worth literally less than a cannon while being able to split and force the enemy team to be on the topside of the map, i never died that much but i already died like 15 times on sion and still got S performances (diamond elo btw). It just doesnt make sense to have a system that bans u based on deaths as if kills where the most valuable things on the game
I think y'all are missing the point, MOST of the people that get 20 deaths are inting.... even in iron 4 Kadeem is a very rare exception@@jotarokujo8423 @macedo1321
This makes me wonder if Riot's moderation team takes different ranks into consideration when spectating a game.
Would be interesting to learn how they do it, but they probably can't talk about their methods too much. :(
Respect for Shouting out Kadeem. Dude is funny asf to watch
One day he'll reach challenger!

This right here is the biggest problem with matchmaking in league, smurfs who keep their elo low enough to keep stomping low elo players. Its toxic, elitist and a bullshit thing to have in a game.
What's even fun about it for them? Shitting on low elo players, making the game miserable and toxic af, especially for new players... why? I don't get it.
Because they are unable to compete with their peers
Sure, but smurfs aren't anywhere nearly as big a problem as people in low elo make it out to be. I swear low elo players see someone pop off, have a crazy good game, and say "fucking smurfs how am I supposed to even win when my team is shit and I'm playing against a smurf!" ... and then you check that "smurf's" opgg and they are 48% wr 400 games plat or some shit. Smurfing in low elo does not happen anywhere nearly as often compared to how low elo players love to say it does. I just got diamond in 180~ games for the first time and I encountered like 4-5 people max that I genuinely felt were smurfs and when I checked their accounts they were 80% wr in 30 games going 10cs/m every game with 20+ kills. It doesn't happen THAT much.
Statistically it is impossible for someone to be held back by smurfs, just by virtue of basic math, unless that person was put on a hitlist by smurfs
@@zawarudo1041 thats a complete lie, i have a lot of master friends that just like to play vs iron to try to comprehend how their little mind works, its more like a rat lab stuff than not being able to compete

Well Kadeem and Thebausffs prove that no matter where are you ranked riot punishment system is broken
It's because feeding/inting the game when there are other options to play thru over a perfect minion farm, but being 0-10 at 12 minutes should be banned, you legit can be 50 cs down in a lane and still flip the game later with opportunity, you know what opportunity doesn't exist with a 0-20 player and having 2 enemies 2 items up on the rest of the game pressing advantages.............. this is directly 1 players fault
@@Rerpesentz Tell me you don't know shit about Bausffs without telling me, pay attention to his games. Most games he has a huge lead on the enemy laner in gold. Cause of farm, towers and shutdowns.
@@alexandervesterlisagen9716 That is only when he plays Sion because the champ is broken. Now his gragas or irelia don't ever get to be ahead in gold compared to enemy toplaner. Every proplayer hates having this inter on their team but won't say it because big community of bronzes thinking they can do the same as him and win even when inting. It gives them hope to reach challenger someday
@@georgigyovchev6448he’s doing the same with rammus rn, it’s not just sion
@@danchen10491 But doesn't change the fact that he warps the entire game into Top Lane meta. Someone calculated his style of making use of bounty system and plate gold & Bausffs style indeed generates the most gold advantage up to 10+ cs/min but it does the same to the opponent if the opponent is not stupid & this can be VERY VERY RISKY if the enemy toplane steam roll the other 4 members on Bausffs team. (and this strat is only viable for high elo where players know their macro well enough & understand how to play around a fed opponent)
In brazil we have a player named williamgordox that plays league since ever and is always in bronze/iron. He actually traveled to corea last year and reach silver their lol.
brazil is the new korea confirmed
i really wish new accounts would be placed in iron and bronze instead of gold-emerald... i know some of my friends who are not very well skilled tried ranked for a first time placed in gold 2 and plat 4.. i am as confused as they are and they are slowly losing those ranks
I hadnt played the game for 4 years and I used to be platinum. But after a 4 year break, I returned and they gave me gold 1 even after losing 90% of my matches lmaoo. It makes no sense.
@@ofanichan If you played those games in the past 12 months (which I'm assuming yes) then you are actually not the "gold 1" you think you are. Last summer at the end of 2023 split 1 Riot changed the ranked distribution when they added Emerald tier. Every rank from silver to plat effectively got boosted up 1 tier, i.e. silver is now gold, gold is now plat, plat is now emerald. So in terms of ranks that you are used to you are actually old silver 1 rather than old gold 1.
@@YuYuYuna_ Oh! at least that's something haha
ELO rating system is not suited for team games. In every computer simulation, it's proven that the system is not suited well to determine actual skill of the players.
@@OsedayCanof course it isn't, even if you do your best and are the 2nd best player in the match, you still lose because you can't carry 4 players. crazy
I always feel like I'm pressured to do well in every game I play, especially now that I'm aware of what being "good" looks like to the point that I get too anxious to play ranked even tho I know I'm relatively above average... so I really admire this guy for being able to play regularly despite being "bad." Not caring is one hell of a skill I need the most work on.
It's a personal issue I've always had a hard time dealing with. Massive respect for the guy tbh.
It's just an IQ diff tbh, Dunning-Krueger and whatnot..
im the same way, emerald 2 rn, wanting to hit diamond by tuesday, just can't queue up lol
Dude it’s not that he doesn’t care but he’s so high on copium that he thinks he’s the best at the game, so he doesn’t feel pressure lol.
@anthony8041, Not even IQ I think this guy may have some kind of disorder. Autism perhaps?
The Tahm&Anivia trolling has no business being this funny
Kadeem, the GOAT, Challenger in normals
he is challenged tier, like me, my mom says im special
People in my games saying the most horrendous scarring shit you've ever heard in your life game after game are just fine, but Kadeem is banned just for being bad at the game ? 💀💀💀 Riot is tripping istg
To be fair., both should be banned lol
@@alihorda you can't ban someone for being bad at the game, that's absurd
@@hugoboncar you can if they are intentionally bad and never improve
@@alihorda its clear there is a mental problem here, not that he doesnt want to improve but is incapable of doing so, is it really his fault tho?
@@ags8507 I am not sure if he is doing for views or has legit mental disabilities. You are either disabled (no offense) or intentionally stay in iron
I flashed to confuse the enemy 😂😂
for anyone who is struggling in iron. Spam Arams. Arams teach you mechanics like dodging, teamfighting ect. also you are forced to play different champs. And yes you are mostly stuck in iron cause your mechanics are shit. Play a year or a half only Aram and then return to ranked, trust me.
I was gold, aramed for 8 years, went back, got emerald 1, and I'm not going back to summoners rift. My advice is... go to aram, stay in aram. I only had a champ pool of 3, I had this icky thing called a 'main' which meant I didn't actually know how to play the game. Now I play 80+ champs on a plat+ skill level. Some better than others. Learning how every champ plays allows you to fight them better coz you know what they can possibly do at the exact range, spacing, and timing they do it at.
ARAM truly will make you a team fighting god but if you really like summoners rift I would warn you my ability to CS took a huge hit but I got back into the groove in a few days.
@@davidmoak1219 true, but learning to cs is ez in comparision to the other stuff
i was bronze untill not too long ago, played in iron when i first started playing the game. I had a few higher ranked players duoing with me one time or another, sometimes normal sometimes ranked, it's funny to watch them lose even though they were playing seriously lmao.
Really low ranked games are infested with passive junglers who fear objetives with their lives, adcs who aa standing still or in punishable range, top laners who either feed or get fed (this one is more common in higher ranks tho) etc.
Games are way more coin flippery, and to get out of these elos you need to play way better than the average player there, i think i had a 80% wr when i finally got out of that hellhole.
"oh questions im okay thanks thou"
This perfectlly describes how I feel he thinks.
it was a based response in my opinion

Good taste, been playing a ton of Persona myself recently
Coach: Why did you flash?!
Kadeem: I flashed to confuse them.
😂😂😂😂
That Tom anivia combo is just genius
I’m so glad that I’m almost in gold now, it was several years of being stuck in iron, I feel actual improvement
7:06 season 6 was such a good season he forgot his duties
a friend of mine said that she is stuck in Iron 4 and never managed to get out of the rank
i wanna help her, so i got an alt in bronze to try help her, but i never played in iron until now, as i always played in diamond,
so going down to iron was a nightmare seeing how some play and i can understand why
she is stuck, there are players with such low map knowledge and so much else that can cause
you to have a hard time to climb,
Its the same through bronze - gold. So many shit teams just throw.
no, it just means you suck, unless she plays something insanely team dependant like yuumi if you have even a basic understanding of the game you are just going to stomp hard because they make endless amount of mistakes.
Same thing in bronze/gold. "The team throws" Only works because you are at the same elo as them. Get better, compensate bad teammates with skill, and you are going to climb.
idk i have played with smurfs in any elo. i just solo carry the games in plat and below. literally doesnt matter how hard my team ints. i even win 4v5s or 3v5 from time to time. and yes sometimes u face another smurf and hes just better than u, or his teammates feed less. thats a loss. but generally speaking if theres no smurf in the enemy team u should be able to 1v9 every game in plat and below as dia player. its just too easy. especially if u pick noob stomp champs like nasus and mundo. so if u have a hard time climbing out of low elo as dia player its kinda on u.
@@user-tp5jm7th3npost your 100% WR below diamond account with clear team inters then. Unless you're just talking bullshit?
its the same even in emerald lol@@phalanx9005
"I flashed to confuse them" 💪
My former roommate was iron 4 and the worst part is that he was trying to improve at the game and just couldn't luckily he stopped playing league PC and moved to wild rift where he was gold, I don't know if he still plays the game becase i haven't seen him in almost 3 years
Wild rift is a good switch. Kiting is easier, map is smaller and it feels less difficult if you're not used to PC gaming. Id recommend it to people struggling with league PC.
Love that tahm kench guy. We need more people like these. Anivia too
Kadeem Alford seems like a cool dude honestly. Keeps playing even in the face of adversity. Looks like he has other things going on in his life too. Respect honestly
I got up to bronze 4, almost 3 and then had repeated bad games and dropped to iron 3...so sad. It was a struggle to get back again. I'm just average but its mostly if my team is good, or just ok we win, if they are not, we lose - i cannot carry. I played a 5 man with some gold/silver players and did just fine. I did OK and the team carried, just like in iron. Interesting there are anti-smurfs out there. So sad if you get one. In the end, makes no difference. It's just a game, not real life.

The last clip was such a disrespect bruh 😂😂
5:55 The Gate Keepers of Iron. Thats sound cool asf
Omg I forgot about that tucking guy 😂😂
I started playing 2023 split 1 and I was placed iron 3 but many of my games were full of bots for leveling and yes even in ranked and so I needed in iron 4. Now I was very stuck in bronze but am almost in plat it feels good
Now it's forsen who is in wooden OMEGALUL
It's pretty eye opening for how easily I learn those games knowing that I can be absentmindedly, not grinding, stay in plat. I wouldn't even know if I'm learning, without the contrast, since I never really think I'm doing anything different, I just play my champ...
I remember when I started playing LoL in 2011. I was ranked Iron 2 and I was super happy. "I wasn't ranked in the lowest rank, this must mean I'm good! 🤠 How many ranks are above me? 😢"
That season, I ended up in Silver and would reach Gold until 2014 when I stopped playing.
Then, I started playing Wild Rift in 2021 and I've been playing casually in ranked Diamond since 2022. I could climb higher, but I'm 29 and life doesn't leave me enough time to climb more each season. Plus emerald is full of trolls, fragile ego and afk players.
Playing this much and not learning is quite amazing tbh
But from what i seen is that they dont have the dexterity to click enough
Yeah, he seems slow, and I don't mean that physically, it's like he has to stop and think about what his next action will be, for very action.
reminds me of my mom. bought her a switch with civilization 6 loaded up on it. taught her the bare basics because i wanted her to flex her brain and learn like everyone else does. she played it everyday or every other day for 3 years straight. this year a bit less because work. after 2 years we were talking about it and she was telling me how much she liked the game and it felt like meditation, as well as giving her a bit of insight on how running a country sort of goes.
but then...
she said, "the only thing i dont like is that they purposely designed the game for you to lose, you cant win".
i just stared, blank faced for a solid 10 seconds before replying "no, you can win, i always won when i played, are you playing online?", "nooooo, im playing the normal game, you cant win, its impossible, YOU must of been playing online", she responded.
long story short, she had been playing for 2 years straight losing every game and thought the game was designed that way. i sat down and played a match going for Domination Victory and won in about 10-15mins. (i didnt want to, she made me show her how to win).
last year she got her first win.
what is twitter and what are tweets?
I have friends who’ve been playing nonstop since Season 4 and they were hard stuck bronze until iron was brought out… now they’re hard stuck iron
Kadeem is the goat :) watch kadeem alford daily
im pretty new to league relatively speaking and I play top, and I learned how to play Riven and im OTP riven now and learning her caused me to be in iron 4, for the longest. eventually if you queue into ranked games at like 4am, you will get actual bots for teammates like A.I controlled teammates. shits so weird. proud to say im in bronze now :)
"I flashed to confuse them." xddddd
As a fairly new player correct me if im wrong. The best thing bad players need to learn is spacing IE staying out of the oppenents attacks whilst staying close enough to counter whilst also managing cooldowns. I see alot of people also going all in when they absolutley should not.
Nah, macro far more important than micro (what you are refering to). You should put more focus on the overall direction of the game and figure out your win condition. Also for personal improvements just review your actions and figure out where you are making mistakes and try to work on them. Everyone has their own problems whether they are new or not.
Also players who tend to just go all in and die aren't thinking about the outcome or risks. Weighing risk and reward is important. Personally I think arguably the most consistent route is obtaining constant gold and income with as little risks as possible. But when new, "limit testing" and figuring out the limits and numbers is very important. So dont be afried to make mistakes and try things that cause deaths. As long you learn from them. For years I was a safe player who rarely wanted to battle, but I felt I didn't learn as much as I did once I started taking risks.
Biggest difference between you and Kadeem is that you are actually trying to improve, which you will.
as he said macro map awareness, objective control, and wave management are all far more important skills that most low level players lack learning ur champion micro can only take u so far
Nah low elo players worry about the things that don't matter. They need to focus on aiming for 8+cs/m every game, focus on learning wave management (is the wave pushing, do I need to push 1 more for it to crash, do I want to push the wave or hold it towards my side because of lane matchup/jg is bot, etc.), not spending 5 minutes in base buying items, and watching high elo VODs of the champ(s) they want to play. Also low elo players need to cut their champ pool to 3 champ max. Damn near every low elo player I see plays 15 different champs and its like well no wonder you can't improve. You have no discipline and just play whatever. Which is fine if your goal is just purely to have fun and mess around in league, there's nothing wrong with that. But if you want to improve you have to focus on a select few champs and grind those champs to perfection.
As a fellow elsword player (4:34) i respect his efforts
No way bro made a vid of Kadeem ive been watching compilations of him the past days and I have done that in over a year. Sometimes u just remember him.
I remember my promo game from iron to bronze. I was stressed because everyone had bronze or silver brackets.
It turned out I was feeling like a smurf in this match. And also teammates were nice.
My best friend is Iron 4, he played during a broken LP gain month and he plays Support. He is not bad but the farther down he got lead to the worse players in his game. I'm just shocked he got their legit and never tried in the first place. His other acc is Silver. But he still makes Iron 4 on his old acc. User: IRON ELO SUCKS
sometimes when im panicking I use the flash like kadeem 😭😭
2:12 This is the result of "Not being squishy" like Phreak recommends 😅😂 Man built Randuin's on Kai Sa loll
I used to play with a friend in another game. He had a lot in the game and it’s not a fully balanced game with quite a few broken things. He had most of these broken things and suffered a terrible win rate. Even so he would always blame the team, he would never acknowledge that he was the problem. I eventually grew tired of it and just stopped playing with him. A bad player in the game would be normally 48% wr or lower. He was 41%
Oh, you played World of Tanks:)
@@doolioart3314 The game I was referring to here was World of Tanks blitz, but yes I've played World of tanks a bit but I refuse to play it more because of artillery. If artillery didn't exist it would become my most played game
@@user-vf1zw3wn3m True, it makes the game very tedious. But it's far from being an only issue. I'm usually not the one to pull the "op" argument, but there are really some stupid premiums in wot that can make matches into a very unrewarding experience if you're on the other side and the player is ok. I actually had most fun with wot when it came out, I guess that's not that rare lol
@@doolioart3314 i had 3250 wn8 average is like 2000-2400 and good is 2800 and above and 75% wr. Op tanks are not really the issue for me, i alwyas know how to deal with them. The issue comes when an enemy from across the map can send one shot and stun my entire crew for 10 seconds, track me and deal 25% of my hp with 1 shot then the guy i am trying to outplay can easily kill me whilst i am crippled. Having artillery limits your options. You can’t drive into certain spots because the artillery could be watching those spots and have to find out how you can outplay an enemy with your movement restricted. I know campers can do a similar thing but they’re easier to hide from, won’t stun your crew for 10 second when when they miss and are usually easier to just avoid in general
i remember my time around s5 or s6, had a thousand games on normal games and just barely 30 on ranked. still struggled to get out of bronze 5 and ended with negative lp lmao but i was just a little snotty kid back then, now im turning 19 and jus hit plat 4 on solo/duo. i play like 4-5 games per week so im really proud even though it took almost 10yrs to improve.
kadeem is unironically a goat of the game. He's been at it for so long
Cant wait till someone makes a video about my gameplay, Currently iron 4 and just lost my 30th game in a row recently
league has become like an IQ test now.
OppaiHero is the definition of "Don't tilt your team"
The fact that im iron 3 and losing makes me wanna requestion my entire life😢
i have over 1 mil otp mastery, consider myself an expert with my champ and a jungle menace, ive been bronze 2 twice, but now im back at iron 4, even though im still tearing it up. I truly blame it on the luck of match making. Despite consistent performances, sometimes i win 18 out of 20 matches. sometimes i lose 18 out of 20 matches.
I dont understand how im still in iron and ive grown to resent the game so much for making it this hard to escape the lowest rank.
This reminds me of a friend that was stuck in bronze for years, and kept complaining how his teammates are horrible, and that there is no way to get out, because even when he does well, he'd lose due to 4 others. I was gold at the time, so I can't say I was good, but he let me use his account. I played on hit teemo top, because the champions he liked to play were ones I disliked. Got 5 streak win that day, playing exclusively on-hit Teemo top. He stopped complaining then, started watching some streams and vids, and can now get to gold on his own. I turned into an ARAM player, tho haha
There are currently, at the time of writing this, around 9 times more players in iron 4 than in challenger and grandmaster combined
It is me about 3 years ago after placements i was placed in IRON 4 0LP.
was iron 4 for like a while, finally got bronze 1 and silver 4 fluctuation, udk how crazy it is for me
I flashed to confuse them 😂
Well, thank you for the video, now i'm not feeling too bad to stuck in bronze/silver after i started 2 years ago (but tbh hardstuck bronze/iron in flex) So maybe it's not everything about rank
"what do you do for fun?" - I gatekeep people in Iron IV 💀
I play in EUW and have a messed up sleep schedule. I'm usually bronze and get the weirdest teams because the matchmaker gets creative, sometimes I play with/against almost full Iron Teams, sometimes it goes up to diamond.
Being a Support, this always gets me caught into the weirdest situations, because I don't know their ranks when picking my champions. You don't want to play a enchanter or engage support when your ADC is a true iron player.
But not enough with that, it's also the dumbest reasons that makes them go completely nuts.
You'd think damage supports would be a save option rather than engage/enchant... which is true as far as the enemy is concerned (most of the time).
HOWEVER, you also have to consider the needs of a iron adc with main character syndrome, because half of them will run it down for the sole reason of you having more kills than them.
My personal highlight however, was a Gold4 adc switching with me to pick last, not pre-picking a champ. It was my only Bard match this year (to get S rank chest) and he decides the best pairing for Bard is a non-farming Senna after he saw Senna win all matches in LCS that day.
Whoever at Riot saw a 0-13-2 report a Bard that did win the game, get S+ and deal more damage than the rest of the team combined for roaming must have had a good laugh.
playing since 2010, before lol i was playing so many games dota lineage etc... when you already know about gaming its easy to play other games
I just escaped Iron 4 over the past month, it's an absolute shitshow of a rank to get out of. I'm not typically the type of person to blame bad teams for me losing, the fact of the matter is I was Iron 4 because I was playing like an Iron 4 player, but there was the odd game where I had somebody throwing which is absolutely infuriating in the moment. Ultimately it means my stay at that rank was longer (Yes they were throwing, people like a Yuumi with 2 wins, 52 losses this season, building full tank etc) not an enjoyable experience. I'm sure this type of things happens in all ranks, but I feel like due to the nature of Iron 4, it happens a bit more there.
As soon as I got out of mid Iron, I've managed to climb up to Silver 4. Yes it's still a bad rank and I'm still awful at the game, but it's an honest relief to be out of that hell hole. So many trolls and assholes in that rank, but like any other rank/game, as long as you put in enough games and deserve to move up, it'll happen over time. Best of luck to those brave soldiers still stuck in Iron, trying their hardest to escape. o7
How exactly is it possible to make sure you lose most games while csing really well and not dying? How does he do it?
Imagine playing SR in 2024. Join the ARAM master race my brothers.
I die so much in my games, but never have I intentionally fed. MY team just wont commit.
I only started playing league in season 13 and got out of iron in 4 matches . I don’t see how ppl are stuck there
Last time I played ranked was cause a friend wanted to duo with me before iron exsisted ended up in bronze 1 aftera few days of play, played one match of ranked recently and went like 30/1 and won but got put in iron 4, so thats how I became the legendary 1%
There was some dumb shit that Riot did when they introduced Iron as the new lowest rank, too, which resulted in plat and diamond players calibrating in iron that season, which made things a lot harder, because while most left little more than a handful of games worth of impact in each division as they stomped their way back up to where they belong, some of them joined in on trying to stay down there for funsies, while others from all divisions fought tooth and nail to lose matches, or just afk'd to get down there, all of which obviously made things far more miserable than it had to be..
I went from calibrating Silver 3 at the end of the previous season, to calibrating low bronze and eventually deranking to iron 4 0LP, and was the second lowest in the NA leaderboard, somehow there was a guy below me who actually had wins in his last 40 games. Now I will admit that after half a dozen or so griefed promos to get out of Iron, I gave up and just autopiloted my way down the rabbithole, joining the toxic masses of doomers who shut down any attempt at positivity from teammates, because I'd noticed that in about half of my games there was someone extremely sus on each team gatekeeping the matches (in most of the rest there was only one on one of the teams), and no matter what everyone else in the game did, they would pull something to swing the game the other way.
It's honestly kinda surprising that these loss traders(?) have been allowed to do this shit on the same accounts for so long when so many people are aware of what they are doing, and yet you can get banned for dying 20 times in a game... Shit company who gives zero fucks about their games or community beyond how much they can milk peoples wallets.
lmao I think I found the dude I killed 12 times on AP talon. Did you get rocked by an AP talon in iron4 like 8 years ago, and ask him what abilities he has that scale off AP? LMAO
God that was a memory and a half. Yeah the game stuck quite a few of us there and thats when we realised ranked was a giant joke so we 'stuck around' in iron as long as we could. My AP talon kept me in iron. MOSTLY lol there were times I was 14/2 on AP talon and still had to chill my role or sell my lich bane so we didn't accidentally win.
Iron 4, at the VERY lowest levels, was a BLAST. We had a 5 man 'feeder iron 4 team' and there were 2 other full 5 man iron 4 teams. It was so fucking funny man, when we'd see the other team it was a race to whoever could get all five people to /ff first. If you weren't quick enough they kicked you out of iron 4 to iron 3 or iron 2 for that single win so it was SUPER important to have the surrender vote alreeady typed in and ready to hit enter at 14:50. I didn't know until that entire thing there are entire communities or at least a little one chillin in iron 4.
Man you make me wanna round up the squad and bust out the AP talon again, those were good times.
you think that's bad, I got a homie whose stuck in wood 5
I can't believe Riot made a special ed rank. That's fucking wild.
I just demoted to Iron 4 today, I know my flaws and where I need to improve but I just don't put in enough time into the game to actionably work on the areas that I need to improve, and I usually just play for fun with my friends in normal. I want to climb, I just accept that I'm not at the point where I'm ready to yet.
fun fact im a zoe main with kda of 8,3/2,6/11,6 and still iron 4 sometimes i get to iron 3 haha
i went from bronze 4 to iron 3 in 2 weeks and have, while i was whole last year b4+ (1 time b1 100 lp) .
I am plat and anything gold 3 and below I feel like a rampaging god .
Me who placed iron 4 after duo-ing with my buddy :( I used to be silver 1 and peaked gold 4 back in season 6-7
Me who didnt know my account was worth 30$
I am third side of the coin. Trapped between the two sides.
well then there's me with 50% on plat and 50% on bronze 4
I pity the guy
😢
dude im iron 4 too but im not that bad 💀
We all need a friend like Kadeem
Doesnt matter if you play for fun
I also belong in iron 4, And have been there since I started the game A few years ago. It is lonely down here.
