Tips for getting out of s1?

So, After promptly gliding right out of silver 2 yesterday, I hit a brick wall of just, absolute gutter trash. Im trying all i can to force my team to win, but when people wont group or just feed and flame, I've been maining taric because of his ability to keep the adc alive or whoever needs to be saved but even when doubling my teams hp in a fight theyve fed too hard and we lose regardless. I can't roam because my adc will die the millisecond im not with them.

Another quirk i've noticed is that alot of losses are from comp alone. When people Decide let's ezreal jungle, Or lux into a yas. and get stomped because lackluster picks. I mean, what more can be done besides banging my head on this brick wall. I've already tried jungling but no amount of ganks can stop a feeding team. so that's why i went to support to prevent so much feeding from bot lane if nothing else. So should i just keep going at it, Or what?

Git gud.

...Okay...I suggest you go top. And pick a tank. Pick the right tank, and you can make up for a shit comp. I actually love Shen for this.

Can't do anything about them counterpicking themselves, unfortunately. But, as Shen, you can do a lot to keep them alive. And you have CC, initiation, peel, are durable and generally opt into item 3748 for damage. You also tend to be able to keep people from tilting, because nearly everybody appreciates having you.

You can also easily prevent botlane from feeding quite as bad like this. You just need to make sure they play safe until you hit level 6.

You honestly need to start getting to Gold around the beginning of the season. End of the season people are generally more inclined to troll and gate players from reaching gold.

Checking your match history, you seem like a solid player - I see one big red flag, as a plat support main.

On your game losses, you tend to have a LOT of deaths. Enough that I feel like you definitely fed on a few of them. You need to get better at turning around bad games and doing better once you've died once or twice.
