How Do I Improve?

Ok, so let me give you some background:

I'm a bronze 2 player who has been playing since July 2014. I got placed in bronze 1 and over time got demoted. I main support (My thresh game is only ok) ( ) , but as that is hard to carry with I also play top ( ) and jungle ( ) (I don't like being squishy).

Are there any tips for improving? I improve in ranked because I learn from my mistakes but then my rating goes down and then I am stuck in bronze 5. I don't improve in normals because no one tries. I don't know how to improve other than playing a lot of ranked. Any help/suggestions?

If you're Bronze then it should be really easy to improve from there. Just maybe watch an informative stream.

A couple I'd recommend would be Nightblue or scarra. I learned so much from scarra in season 3 when I came back to the game knowing nothing. And even though people hate on Nightblue, he was definitely a pretty informative stream you could learn jungle from. I never watched him for more than a couple minutes but I think his commentary would be really helpful to people trying to learn jungle.

Also, when you're playing support, you can try roaming to other lanes with mobi boots and get ganks off. It's best to do this when you pushed your minion wave at bot to their tower.

I don't main support so i won't know what to say to help you in that department but playing normal even if your teammates aren't trying, (but You are) will help you improve a lot. I didn't start playing ranked until after a year of playing normal games.

Another way to improve your play is joining a team even if they aren't serious team. Playing in a ranked team will improve your ability to communicate and really test your skills as a player. You can get feedback from your peers on what to really improve on because people tend to not see their faults. I personally learned a lot from playing in a team.
