I hate that it feels like im not allowed to play certain champions being low elo.

My point being that im forced to attempt to carry. It is no secret that low elo is full of trolls and overall just awful players, (I have actually been q'd with someone unranked which makes absolutely no sense to me) But regardless, i cant play certain champions that i actually love (Evelynn Nidalee Akali Orianna because in bronze/silver a good team is so rare, and these champions just cant really carry as hard as say rengar for example

For lower elos, it comes down to an "It Depends" for all four of those. You can't expect one champion to win a game alone in Lol anymore - it's not like it was in past years, when people were bragging about how one player was able to carry a whole team.

This is especially true when you consider that Silver IV-V is roughly the half-way mark for the entire League population - i.e., the "average" rating of the entire population. (At season 6, you have roughly 1/2 of the playing population is in bronze, believe it or not.) So, plan to play a solid champion - and if the window opens up for one of your favourites, because it works well against the team across from you - then go for it. Incidentally, I've seen an Akali and an Orianna doing fine in lower ranked games.

The only thing I'd suggest is to just stop worrying about the end result for a while. Simply, it's not healthy. If it really bothers you, then play some normals or ARAMs for a bit. Fretting about outcomes at lower levels really is not worth it. Just focus on your game and improving the basics. Eventually, statistically, you will gradually get out of the lower levels and get a chance to play some of the champions you want. But worrying really does nothing for you...

You can carry with any champion you want, even AD crit soraka in low elo, so no your point is irrelevant.

To this day, I've never seen a fb quicker than a previous game where an AD raka killed syndra at like 40 something seconds in

I have solo carried games as Ori with literal pilons for teamates.

Ori is NOT a champ that is team reliant, great potential in team. BUT positioning and a decent item build...she is still one of the ONLY hard carries left in the game.

Actually, every champion you listed (Except maybe Evelynn ) can carry extremely hard.

The reason you can't carry isn't because of your team, your ping, your PC or whatever. It's simply because you aren't as good as you think you are.
