🧠 What Actually Wins Games in Low Elo (Iron–Platinum)

Before picking champions, understand what really wins games in low elo:

  • Simple, reliable damage beats flashy, high-APM outplay champs.
  • Frontline and engage win chaotic solo queue fights.
  • Wave clear + push give you control even when your team is trolling.
  • Low-death playstyle is more important than crazy plays.
