I dont know What I need to Fix

I am currently a Silver 2 Mid Laner and I find myself losing games because either I get camped by their jungle, and my jungle is too busying farming and cant take advantage of their jungle being mid or they simply just play better. I am mostly frustrated not because I am losing, but mostly because I do not know what I am doing wrong. Also I notice when I OP.GG my teammates, they have rankings going back to season 4 and 5. I started in season 6. I don't know if I just need to experience more or what but if there is anyone who can help me or tell me where to look to improve on my gameplay that would be great because I honestly feel so lost. Thanks

Most important and first change you need to make is attitude. Ask any coach about the mentality of players on pro teams they will tell you a good attitude makes you play better. 2nd don't worry about wins or loss. They don't matter in the long run. Think about it this way, is being upset about your rank or a loss going to give you any advantage in game? You are a Silver 2 player, as you improve you'll win more often than lose till you reach your player rank your supposed tobe in. You seem to be suffering from the same mentailty someone in bronze 3 or 4 is when they say to a master or challenger player seeking advice" I'm a gold player currently stuck in bronze, how do i get out of ello hell?" They lie to themselves, see because they are in bronze so they are infact not a gold player, they rage on about ello hell but there is no ello hell as it were. That is simply the ranking of player they are.

I will say that bronze now is season 2 or 3 silver even some what season 4 so players overall have increased their skill levels. Why is this? I blame youtubers for giving them the correct builds and showing them how a champion plays. Where as earlyer in leagues history this information was gained threw pure experence. I remeber players saying you needed 1000 normal games before playing in ranked. The wisdom on how to play and what works is more widely spread so more and more players are seemingly better.

No I am not saying I am stuck in the elo, I just seem to be beaten by the enemy team, and that I don't know the areas I need to improve in, which is causing my frustration. I am not blaming my teammates for feeding or losing me the game, I just feel weak as a player sometimes because I don't know what I am doing wrong.

Then watch your replays. You are 1 of 5 so you can only truly influence 20% of the games. I used to rely on team mates then got shot down 5 ranks. Finally I realized they don't matter. Went to a pure spit pushing style mostly with trydamir. Won about 80% of my games since and am starting to rank back up.

It all happened after I got it in my head that I can't trust the other 4 members of my team. Sure at high ello they ward and have map awareness, and punish objectives instead of chasing kills. But i'm not at high ello so split pushing = wins. Because all a split pusher like trydamir is designed to do is farm and take towers. At the same time if you run something like heal and flash you won't be caught or pushed out of lane. due to heals movespeed boost. Running fevur for battle.

Feel free to try the play style. I always start longsword refillable reguardless of who I'm against. Ban out teemos as they are a pain. stack fury run up to laner start attacking hold dash until they flee. Dash in chicken and wale away at them. They'll die or back which case push hard into tower then roam to their top side jungle and take a camp. Rinse and repeat.

Atleast that works for me, just never go on someone till fury is maxed. And keep the mindset farm < kills Tower < kills. Standard build useally looks something like item 3046 item 3087 item 3031 item 3153 item 3006 item 3036 . The reasoning why I use phantom dancer and shiv, isn't just as and wave clear. Its really the Movespeed. this combined with a standard AS rune page will have you at 2.01 AS, around 440 Movespeed I believe though cloud drakes have an effect. and criting every all the time. the movespeed allows back to lane faster lord domik is for tanks and for the borks damage bc the on hit affect is applied as physical damage. At level 1 with this start you'll have 80 ad to work with, on the champ with the highest starting hp anyway. Anyway works for me use if you want. Even if my whole team loses lanes I can still win the game with this build because they will have to decate 3 of their team to even catch me. Even then I might get away.

I may be able to help if we played together

just addressing jg camping you: if getting jg camp u need to ward or if u are like me and suck at map awareness/vision control. you could play champs that are more "forgiving" to bad vision IE slippery champs (fizz, Katarina, ahi, act) basically champs that are hard to gank, The more immobile a champ the more your vision game needs to be on point

just a very general brief tip
