Im only gold 5. I know. But heres how to climb. 1) Dont flame your jungler/ other team mates. Theres always something you couldve done. 2) Dont Surrender when things are looking rough. Theres always you can come back.Play till the nexus breaks (even if you loose you will learn something from the loss) 3) Play as a team. Try to understand what your teammates are doing. 4) Try to understand what your enemies are doing. I tend to imagine me being on the other team and figure out whats a chance they would do something (objectives or roaming) Than try to out play that and predict! :) 5) WARDING IS NOT JUST ON THE SUPPORT! Support SHOULD have sightstone and Sweeper( to clear wards etc) If you have an extra spot buy a

Flex Q put me i bronze elo (Im Silver III).

I 1v2 a tryndamere and an orianna as vayne.

Riven: omg Riven: vayne Riven: god

me: Now do not fight without me because you just saw me 1v2 right? Stick with me and we will win this (we are playing from behind) Riven: kk

(Right after this my team starts a fight while I was clearing super minions in base).

They die. I die. Fuck bronze players. The most dumb brainless imps in this game.

How to actually climb with ease:

Play a champion that can potentially win 1v2 or greater odds and has a great late game. ######Snowball champs work too, but they do horribly if they're behind and don't scale hard enough to come back late game in most cases. Too unreliable if you can't close out the game quickly, since team-mates are likely bad.
ADC: Draven/Vayne.
Mid: Pretty much any mage with extremely low CDs (Vlad, Ryze, Cass, etc), or any extremely safe mage with pick potential.
Jungle: Anyone with good dueling potential, ganks, teamfights, and AFK farm/counterjungle potential. ######Alternatively, assassins if you're extremely solid with them.
Top: Top lane mages [Vlad/Liss/Swain/Kennen/Rumble] or other champs that can turn ganks around solo easily.
AFK farm while punishing mistakes of your opposing position.
Ward and maintain map/objective awareness.
Always assume that X champion you don't see on the mini-map will create a worst-case scenario for your action.
Glance at the mini-map constantly. Every time you're autoing a minion to last hit, glance at the mini-map for a split second. Make a habit of this. Backing away from a trade? Glance at the mini-map. Applying risky pressure? Glance at the mini-map. Mindlessly autoing creeps? Glance at the mini-map. Ganking? Drop a ward and watch the mini-map while you're going in. Doing an objective? Ward flanks beforehand unless its absolutely free.
Split-push while maintaining map presense outside of your lane; make sure your ward to cover flanks. If I can do it with Ghost/Flash top, you can do it from mid or top with TP extremely easily.
Guide your team in a non-aggressive manner after you gain your lead; if you are carrying, they are very likely to listen to your directions, that way you're all on the same page. :)
Always try to have Yasuo and Irelia banned. No, this isn't just bias. There's logical reasoning for this: there's no telling who will feed them, or feed on them, no matter which team when below plat. They snowball so insanely hard and its difficult to shut down their momentum/outplay while also being so insanely useless when behind that its too much of a gamble to leave them available on either team. Yasuo first (more common, better early game), Irelia second. They're simply far too easy to play when ahead, meaning you can lose to them even if you, personally, are a much better player than the snowballed Yasuo/Irelia.
