title pretty much covers it. i main support and i do decently most games. but it doesn't matter how well i play, because the difference between a win and a loss is within 3-6 points. regardless of how i play.

if i win a game and sucked out loud but got carried, i still get at least 15-20 points. However, if i play at my very best and get an A-S+ rank after a close loss, i lose 14-17.

Honestly, theres no answer to your question. If you are winning 51%+ of your games you will climb. Sadly, this game requires A LOT of time to get much further than gold 5. Its a grind, just like any other game.

get better mmr. You are also trying to climb in a role that doesnt suit climbing. Elo booster support mains dont even play support in low elo up to diamond even because its just not suited to unless you play champs like blitz annie karma

Law of large numbers, play only champs you have above 50% win rates on. I tend to do %checks at 10, 25, 50,100 games played. If its under upper 40% after 25 games stop playing them. I am a support main as well but in anything below silver 2 i would recommend playing jungle or mid hyper carry, snowball fast as you can, win a few games off FF that way. Gotten to Plat last two seasons playing supports as my main, Nami and Bard mostly... so you can climb as a support, but its a lot easier to do so when the skill level of teammates becomes more consistent.

You don't climb without win streaks. That's the point.

Had some spare time waiting for a bro to log in. Looked up your #s for previous seasons and current. I strongly recommend you focus on investing into 3 champions per role and getting them down well. You had for example 19 different champions that you lost with and never played again. 12 wins with 12 other champs you never played again, then of the 68 champions you played in ranked last season, 3 of them you had over 10 games, all three positive win rates on. Its the stuff around 5 games and less that you have bad win rates. leo 30 games (22 wins 8 loss) Trist 16 (11w, 5L) and Thresh 12 (8w,4L). This is a trend with you as this season you already at 20L with 20 different champs you have only played once, and only have 8 one timers that are wins. So my advice is decide on 2 champs per role if you want to be fill, and only play them non stop for at least 10 games each, OR alternatively go for about 4 champs for each of your two best roles and stop filling. After you have the data from those games, if your KDA and win rates are bad, Dont play that champ in ranked anymore with out investing more time into them in normal. Hope this helps mate. Peace.

Go with a premade bout the only thing you can do.

We all have the same problem with lp gain/loss being almost the same eventually
