Actually my dude, elo hell most certainly is real but it is not what people initially think of it to be. Elo hell is when you hit that point in where you mentally fail yourself you stop looking for ways to improve and instead start blaming everything else other than yourself. The only reason people experience elo hell is because they have stopped trying to improve themselves, plain and simple.

Right. So ‘Elo hell’ in it’s original meaning doesn’t exist.

“I found it easy to get a job, so even though some people may struggle due to factors out of their control, it’s their fault that they can’t get a job - saying it’s hard to get a job is simply an excuse; if I can do it, they can too, even with setbacks.”

Yes it is. That’s like saying the sky isn’t blue. If you played any time in elo hell you would know it’s real.

Except it’s not.

By you saying that you made it to diamond and that elo hell isn’t real, since you managed to get there other people should be able to as well? Throwers, grievers, smurfs and trolls have no influence on their games, since ELO hell (what people normally refer to in these situations) isn’t real.

It’s exactly what you’re saying - that despite different circumstances, because of your one experience, everyone else’s experiences are false and they should be able to climb if they just ‘git gud’. It’s the same argument I’ve seen time and time before, I have no reason to think yours is different. It’s always “I climbed elo hell isn’t real!” as the basis.

(I hope this is somewhat coherent. It’s easy for me to lose track of my posts as I type them. Sorry if it’s too repetitive.)

First started this game in silver and climbed now to high Diamond almost masters

“ELO Hell” isn’t anything real, but what is real is the throwers, leavers, boosters, trolls, smurfs, hackers and you can do nothing about these but the fact is you will still climb if you out-perform your rank, and you have less chance of having the throwers on your team, than you do theirs so accept the fact you can’t control everybody in the game, and just perform your best, and you will still climb.
