@Skill, with that attitude, you won't really get anywhere. I got to silver by one way, which was carrying. Rather than filling, I'd ask for my main roles and usually got them then carried my way through, which was what you should be doing, especially when you duo.

@Talon, gold is just as worse until you hit about gold 3/2/1, otherwise you'll be stuck with people boosted to Gold V or got placed there but suck.
