I’ve been iron 3 for about 4 months. Today, I got promoted and won my first five games so far, with at least two up arrows each. Most of my team is bronze every time.
My aim isn’t even that good today. My dm scores weren’t great today and I’m taking longer on 50 bots, plus my hands are really cold and I’m missing shots I would normally hit. I still was always 3rd or higher in my team.
I think iron just has too many afks, trolling teammates, smurfs, and people who just don’t know what they were doing. Once you finally escape it, I think skill starts to matter a lot more (i did this by playing cypher and sorta kinda baiting my bad teammates/being second guy in). I’m just a bronze after all, so I don’t know if it was luck, “using” my team, or me just carrying that finally got me up, but I’m guessing it’s just cross your fingers and try your best to carry until you get it.
Can anyone confirm if this is how they got out, or is there some other way? Youtube guides all said to carry so I wanted to compare and see if there were other ways.
