I had a friend (IRL friend, not someone I met through the game) who is really good at the game and wanted to see what ELO hell was like. He plummeted his score from around 1600ish to a 600 in about a week, then got back in about the same amount of time. He swears that there is no such thing as ELO hell. I would never take the risk, though.
