Please tell me what I'm doing wrong

Hi everyone. I don't know if this is the right place to post this, but I've seen similar posts here so I'm gonna post mine too.

I'm bronze 5, Pretty close to 0LP. I'm a HIGHLY competitive player, and I've been playing competitive games for years now, but I cannot seem to win my games no matter what I do or how fed I am. I mainly play Overwatch (Diamond player) and I'm very flex. I can play every single hero on a diamond level. I got there not because I'm mechanically skilled (which Im not) but because of strategy, positioning and decision making (which is what League is all about). I watch streams, videos, esports, look at builds and tips, but I can't seem to climb what so ever, and I feel like I don't belong (not actually saying I don't belong, but I see players in my matches and can easily be point out their mistakes) I've never been so frustrated with a game, and league is currently uninstalled on my computer.

I don't know what to do anymore. Im posting here because I hope there's something really stupid that I keep doing without noticing that you may be able to point out by looking at my match history. This is my last attempt. I do not see myself playing another game unless I find something that will really affect the way I play, because one more loss and I think I'm gonna lose my sanity.

the first thing I would do after looking at your match history is work on farming. You average less than 5cs per min. I still struggle with farming and im gold while I average about 7.7 on caitlyn and tristana (only champs i play in ranked solo unless autofilled). Learning to farm will get you to silver. Shoot for 10cs per min. My goals are 75 @10 min, 175 @ 20 min, and 300 @30 min.

To learn how to farm how I did it was go into a custom game pick the champ i want to learn, and just focus on last hitting till i killed the nexus with no enemy champs. Once I could average about 10 a min. I added a bot of intermediate level so I could work on things like saving cool downs, poking them, and positioning.

Also focus on a small champion pool of 10 champs. 2 for each role. Its impossible to learn 100+ characters at once so just play the ones you like. Hope that helps.

Hello, the boards aren't the best place to ask for advices, this subreddit is dedicated for league help and tips from low rank to high rank

Hate to be the one to break it to you, but you may have some kind of disability

(edit) ping does count as a disability, yes :^)
