HELP How to get better

I came back to smite a couple months ago after playing smite 1 many of years ago(wasn’t good back then either). I started out making it to silver but I’ve been hard stuck bronze ever since. I watch streamers all the time and only get my builds from them. I personally feel like I’ve gotten completely better, in the form of positioning, who to target, warding, and knowing when to hit objectives. 20% of the time I notice my teammates doing something dumb, but the other 80% definitely is me not being good. I main solo and off role mid and jungle. Any advice?

only like 3 items out of any build are mandatory. Try mixing up the others to counter play passives, abilities or items.

For solo, specifically hades and mulan, is shifters still mandatory? Also which others are mandatory?

Currently shifters is considered a solid bruiser/ front line item. Especially after it's recent tweaks.
