i think the answer to this would be: you're in bronze not everyone's gonna be playing smart in bronze/silver elo, ofc not everyone will be playing dumb but sometimes you get unlucky

I used to be in Bronze so I can relate. This happens occasionally because there are just soo many people playing this game that is in Bronze league, so when everyone queues up to play a game, if ur unlucky you get bad teammates. To compensate for this, Riot makes it so that if you win the game, you get more IP than you would usually get b/c you either carried or used teamwork, and if you lose, you still gain more IP than usual b/c ur up against a harder team.
