Anyone else change roles throughout the season as they climb?

I have done this for awhile now but I generally find it strategic to change roles throughout a ranked season. Obviously I am not High diamond + just someone excited to finally hopefully hit plat this season lol. But the last few seasons I have done a similar thing the last two going as this.

Start off soft resetting to silver. Hate life because every game in silver makes me want to cry. Go back to my season 6-7 days and try maining jungle. Don't really climb.... just die inside before eventually deciding to switch to adc. Still quite annoying role to play in solo queue but duo with some friends and try hard a bit and get to gold 3 - 4. Then decide it time to try hard and jump on the ol super high mechanics Malzahar train and hope for plat :).

I personally can't spam the same role and champ forever without getting insanely bored. Plus.... I kind of decide what champs I will play based on how strong they are in the meta and how good I feel playing them. I knew Jinx & Ashe were strong adcs most the season and felt good on them so just spammed them. I know Malzahar can be strong but I hate playing him in like low gold or silver because I can't 1v9 with him. His dots take too long to kill people plus his ult when enemy team is fed as fuck and everyone on your team dies in 1.5 seconds. So I usually wait until like mid gold as I generally have teammates I can actually play around by then.

I get last season I didn't climb past gold 4 I just really hated the game but I did start off maining jungle and then switched to adc. But during preseason 8 I did my Malzahar mid thing up to plat mmr but since it was preseason didn't really care about rank (same with others) and switched to messing around in flex 5v5.

Idk.... changing roles at time just makes sense to me. I also have mained support in the past and part of this season. But right now only thing I feel comfortable playing is mid with Malzahar or Corki unless I am duoing bot with a friend. I still hate jungling for the most part..... but can have a decent game time to time depending on match ups.

I changed from playing what ever i wangt to playing mid/jungle or top (because i used to play only top so i can play it if someone is aotofilled) and i went from silver 5 to gold 1 74 lp right now
