Have you considered that maybe mid silver is where your skill currently is? Rather than find something else to blame for why you aren't climbing, maybe just focus on your own gameplay and any mistakes you make and try to improve. Even if you play well, that doesn't mean you couldn't play better.

This may be a tall order my good sir.

I mean while I can agree with that statement, you know for a fact that riot does this? They literally put people with lower mmr INSIDE your games to even you out so you don't climb too quickly, it is just a known fact

It's not so you don't climb to quickly. This is just a core misunderstanding of the matchmaking system. They try to have an even average mmr on both sides. If you have higher mmr than everyone on the other team, then your teammates will have lower mmr than the players on the other team so it remains somewhat even. If you're maintaining approximately a 50% winrate, that's just an indication that the matchmaking system is actually working well. If every game were easy and you stomped the enemy team, it would be terrible matchmaking for the other team.

What do I do if I am bronze 2 and constantly get bronze teammates vs silver opponents?

I will gladly admit the silver players are better than me. Please stop putting me up against someone who was/is Silver 1. All I can do is hug tower and hope they don't dive.

I don't know if it is my MMR or not. I am not going to carry. I don't know if I can or will get better playing vs them when it is usually not that great.

Yea some games are random, recent had former Plat jg then all bronze/silver vs 2 gold and some high silvers. Yea I wish the plat jg could carry, but he couldn't and we got wrecked. Why the hell are people two tiers away in my game.

If they are being put on the same game as you, then they aren't better than you. MMR and ELO rank are different things. With boosting (AKA premaking) it's perfectly possible to be plat and still plat at a silver or even bronze level. All the more so when it's a former elo instead of a current one.

Well you're playing flex. The matchmaking is a complete joke, unfortunately. The rank 1 player in flex was only gold 3 in solo queue last I checked.

That is sad. Because I literally just want Gold V for free champ/skin.

I started flex because it was the first option on the list. Like why is the first option not the most used mode is beyond me. And I don't want to go through 10 more "placements" to be bronze 5 and forced my slow climb again =/.
