How do I deal with feeding teammates trying to climb ranked.

How do I deal with these people that pick a champ they've never played before and go 0/7 feeding darius and lose us the game? It's out of my control and it happens very often people just pick who the f ever and feed. And I know what you're thinking. I average 4 deaths a game.

I've taken advice on dodging games but I personally think that advice is useless below diamond because every single game you get 3 other people picking champs brainlessly (yes I've asked them) and 2 of your teammates are serial feeders meaning they feed consistently every game.

I've heard advice that I need to hard carry every single game but that advice is not useful since I am not smurfing nor am I a booster, I'm playing in my elo so my win percentage will be around 50%. I understand that I must win a majority of my games so I am looking for advice maybe something I actually can do in this situation.

I know much of this post is a rant and I questioned if this post belongs in rant but I am mainly trying to seek for advice so I don't think it belongs there; maybe I'm wrong?

Just because you're not dying a lot doesn't mean you're useful or not a reason your teammates are feeding.

You're dying quite a lot, even when fed. The reason your teammates are "feeding" is probably because someone's more fed than them and then is wiping the floor with them.

If you're at 50% then you're at the rank you deserve to be at. Even if you think you could be better if you never got feeding teammates, EVERYONE else in solo queue is dealing with the same probability of getting teammates like yours. Learn to accept when a game is a lost cause, but always try to learn how to efficiently play from behind, even if it's 0-40 at 12 minutes and you're just waiting another 3 minutes to surrender.

Learn to play bot or mid lane. ADC and mid lane are the lanes that can carry and secure the dragon objective. ADC is the best scaling and team fight role in the game. Even better if you get tank/CC supports that can peel you without immediately dying to assassin burst themselves in case midlane comes pay you a visit. Bot lanes with enchantresses are useless.

Kai'sa, Xayah, Caitlyn are all great, highly independent ADC's that can do well on their own and scale up monstrously with huge survival tools. For midlane you got plenty of safe champions, from Akali, to Zed, to Orianna, or Syndra; getting ahead on Fizz is also an option as he becomes hard to shut down once he has a lead.

Only way to deal with inters is to get fed harder yourself, or play with duos to reduce the coinflip nature or inting lanes.

if u have over 200 games played, your win rate is inevitably going to float 48-52% Just keep rolling those dice, because thats literally all it is.

Pick a champ that is relevant. Dont counterpick yourself. Play bot or mid.

Those are the only thrree things you can do to give your dice roll the best odds.
