Bronze 5 Examples?

4.5BRAINROT SCORE

bronze 5 Brazilian gamer insult-joke for a player who makes a clumsy play, as if they belonged to the lowest division of the lowest tier of ranked League of Legends. Teammates ask "tá jogando no bronze 5?" after, for example, a missed ultimate. The tease is aimed at skill, and the division itself no longer exists in the current ranked system.

Origin:From the ranked ladder of League of Legends, where Bronze V was the lowest rank. Mein-MMO (20 Sep 2018) reports that players used "Bronze 5" as an in-game joke after a blunder, and that Riot removed the fifth division and added Iron and Grandmaster for the 2018 pre-season, which ended the meme in its original form. Portuguese Wikipedia confirms Iron and Grandmaster were added in 2018. The Brazilian use of the phrase is not dated by the pages opened.
First Seen:Unknown (Brazilian use undated; the joke is documented in English by Sep 2018)
Peak Era:2010s (before the 2018 ladder change), still quoted in the 2020s
Aura Impact:-1 Aura (Using It To Insult Teammates)

EXAMPLE USAGE
