How do I find errors in my own play between lanes?

After every game I try to identify one thing I could have done better. I've identified CS to teamfight positioning to item builds and so on. I've improved enough to where I can win against lane opponents in my own MMR range (Bronze 2) but for some reason another lane loses HARD. By this I mean giving up First Blood by 1:45, going 0/5 by 8 minutes, not defending towers/overextending, etc. So, while in my own lane I'm winning, another lane loses/feeds. I try rotating, pinging, CC but it never seems to save the lane. How do I, as mid lane, identify what went wrong?

Honestly, and this might be an unfavored opinion.. But you shouldn't really care what went wrong for them, your main concern should be "how do i deal with it" and once you start learning how to play vs sm1 that is fed, you can learn grow and climb.

Leme try to explain it like this: If you are doing really good in your lane, and you have made the enemy mid laner feed, and your bot lane is feeding their bot lane. Then it becomes this: Can i use my lead and advantage to carry my team, or will the enemy use their lead and advantage to carry theirs.

Sometimes there is nothing you can do, you can't control other people.

Typically you have to work out if they are having trouble very early don't let them get to 0/5 then need help when they are 0/1.

Often you will have to basically let a lane lose and try to help the other lane the one that can be helped.

Talking people into playing well is a serious skill and its really really hard, because you have to avoid ego's and prove you know what you are talking about. you need to be calm and level headed in a tough situation. When you are making suggestions you need to make people feel good still, you are being critical but you have to do it in a way they don't realise you are being critical because ego's.

Just watch a streamer and see how they are doing things differently. Compare your own play to theirs and you'll learn stuff.
