Ranked isn't fair at pairing elo

I got out of bronze because i didn't want to be there, and im still playing with them. it shouldn't be fair that players who actually wanna play well can't because the opposing team is fed. just played with a blitzcrank who fed times 7 minutes in. The worst part was, I WAS BOT WITH HIM, and got me killed twice. so im a silver5 , playing with a s4, bronze 3 (blitz) bronze 2 lee (his build failed) and a bronze 2 Gnar. HOW IS THIS FAIR TO THE PLAYERS WHO WANT aren't in bronze? please explain why i get paired with them.

Your rank is not connected to your MMR. You play at the level of lower silvers and high bronzers, so you are matched with lower silvers and high bronzers.

Look at my match history. Notice how i have gone positive in all but 3. The tristana one was just unlucky deaths, Zed was a terrible game because I made too many mistakes, and Ryze was because i was ulted down with a WW ult, Fizz ult, and the snare and toggle of Maokai. Just look at the builds and ratios, and then tell me why i am having these problems?

"I'm actually really good at this game. I HAVE A HIGH KD!"

QED. Enjoy bronze.

Going positive alone isn't going to get you out of low-elo, if it was that easy we'd all be high-elo.

Your item builds are solid, the only one I find myself questioning in your past-10 is the Zed build. Not a single active item? Youmuu's/BotRK/Ravenous Hydra are all excellent items on Zed, providing raw damage and an active effect which amplifies his damage-dealt during Death Mark for greater kill potential. Brutalizer is a great early buy, but I certainly would not turn it into a Black Cleaver until much much later- if ever.

The best thing you can do for yourself is die-less. In every single one of your games except for your Twitch game, (only 4 deaths,) you died far too many times, thus implying you made many positioning errors and gave the enemy team an advantage through each of those deaths (gold, exp, map ctrl and objective ctrl.)

I start truly dying after 16 minutes because the opposite team starts targeting my lane. I can't win a single game anymore (could it be because of the end of season4?). I have no fucking clue how I can do so well, get good items and somewhat of a good creep, and never manage to carry my team. I recently played a game as Ryze, and I was ulted by 3 to take me out (WW ult, then fizz, then the toggle of maokai) I was so desperate that i built a Thornmail.

Besides that, I can't even win normals anymore. I used to be winning almost everytime, and on rare occasions i would lose. Now i rarely win in the past 2 days. Could you at least watch a game and help me understand my mistakes?
