I feel lost

I don't understand whats happening to me anymore. Recently I climbed back up to diamond on a win streak, and I didn't stop there. I kept playing more improving myself achieving diamond 4 for the first time. I went up to around 70 LP before I began to lose games. I kept losing so I decided to play my alternative plat 2 account to pick myself back up. It started up well winning most my games to d5 promos. I went 1-3 in my promo series and from there on I have kept losing. I dropped all the way to plat 3 today on it and I have no idea why. I tried different play-styles to see if I was falling out of the meta which didn't help. Its not even tilt that putting me down either. I've taken breaks to releieve any stress from bad games, but for the most point I am not playing bad in these games. Now i'm not saying gg team too heavy but I don't understand why I keep losing when i'm not playing poorly in most of these high plat elo games. I have experienced my fair share of lose streaks like anyone else but never one to this extent.

I don't know how it is in higher elo's (I'm Bronze/Silver - currently bronze 2), but this is the reason I don't play ranked hardcore. I'm a solo player. My ranking is based on win/loss rate first, which means I can have an awesome game and lose and lose lp, but someone on the other team can have a shite game and win and gain lp. If you don't have at least a 3 man team or your name isn't Faker you're probably going to do a slow spiral on the elo slide :( .
