You have failed to mention a lot of variables about your friend. Most players who start at ELO hell have problem getting out of it because they are usually lower in level, meaning they would have a lot less benefits (i.e. runes, masteries, etc.) that a higher level player may have at their disposal. Not to mention a probable richer knowledge in different champions so they can pick an appropriate champion in different team combinations to better help their team and also to counter the opposing champions.
