Individual performance in game

Alright so my entire issue with this game is that it does not take your individual performance into account AT ALL.

Now, I know im not some diamond player, or even a gold player, but i know i am not bronze 3.

What happens in nearly all of my games is that i do well in my lane, my team refuses to group up or take objectives and then i get crushed until late, late game if we make it that far.

My summoner name is Warrollan if you want to look me up.

I do not want to play some 'hyper carry' that is not fun to me. Just like when i played WoW i always stuck with my destro warlock even if he wasn't top tier i made him work and i was in 2200 bracket. Unfortunately time does not allow me to play WoW now, so i am stuck with this fucking game. Anyway, just wanted thoughts on the subject. I am pretty overtired so i apologize if any of this comes off as incoherent or rambling. And Merry Christmas everyone!

I looked you up, you have fairly good cs/m, kda and kill contribution in 2/3s of your games

I agree you probably should be slightly higher than what you currently are, I personally suggest you try playing Syndra bot lane as the "support" however, you should build AP. The goal here is that Syndra is a really strong bully, and you will have a larger effect on the overall game if you can manage to bully out 2 players than just 1.

Yo.... before anyone else comes and says if you cant carry you deserve to be where you are, let me be the first to say ignore them. They most likely got carried out by luck because what you're experiencing is common. How can you carry the game alone when the enemy team has 4 fed players who can carry? Are people honestly saying that if you cant 1v5 a group of 4 players who are ahead and grouped you deserve to be in bronze? Please.... save it. I agree rito needs something to measure player success on its own.

Really man, I've been playing the game for a little over a year. I started right at the end of season 3, and it is tough. I spent countless games playing trying to improve. The biggest tip I can give you is this, play ALL lanes, and try every champion in those lanes. Even if it seems derpy, try the champ 2-3 times in that lane. When you find what feels most comfortable or strong to you, play it non-stop. I carried myself with Fiddlesticks jungle and Leona Support to gold from Bronze 5 on one account, and to silver 1 from Bronze 5 on a second account.

Now I'm basically gold on both accounts. It just took time. Lolking me and you'll see I play every lane, every champ pretty much.

Being flexible in champ select is godly. Filling every game releases tension from your teammates and they play better if they get the role they want. You just have to be good in all lanes. Of course you'll have a "best lane", but just don't bother trying to master that ONE lane and call it every game. It's just a hindrance.

(Also watching pro streams helps A LOT on Twitch.tv .... I learned great techniques for fakeouts, warding, vision control, ganking methods, everything, most importantly proper csing techniques)
