Should I main another role after a whole year of practice?

Im not sure, but Im actually considering to main another role besides ADC after a year of practice on that role. So this is the story:

So Season was ending, I usually play the game for fun, but I decided to try ranked. Ive played ranked before, did terribly bad and ended in Bronze 3 or so. But this time I did fairly well, I was able to climb to B1, but I couldnt get to Silver (lost 2 promos QQ), all with Tristana, a nice ADC I use a lot. Season ended, Preseason started, and right now I feel like im failing a bit with new stuff. You see, I lost most of my games, and the ones I won, I didnt carry at all. Thats my job! To carry, but I never did this last 15 or so matches.

Ive been playing for a year this role, I have 4 champs mastered (Vayne with 100k and the others with 30 k upwards), and I dont blame it on the new patch at all, I think its a fantastic preseason, I blame it on me. My question is, should I try to find a place (item builds, new ADCs to master, more practice) in the ADC role, or should I go and try another one? (I suck at Jungle, im ok with support, and I would probably fly into the Mid Lane if I had to master something else, and I find top pretty boring).

I left my page from Op.gg, also one last thing. Im actually a Latin American player, I accidentally made my account in NA. I have an average of 195-200 ping (previous to server change in Na i had 250 average), thing is, does this affect my game in any way?

Please Id love some advice.

Ping does affect your game play in many ways, I've been varying off of Jungle so Im in the same position as you. I still have to learn things and I'm silver. Learn all the roles, play one each game and you should do fine. That way you can gain an understanding of how theyre played. Just cause you have champs level 5 doesnt mean anything lol. I 1v1ed an Ahri that had 100K right when I bought Ahri and beat the Ahri 12/2/0 So...

Your mastery points mean you've played a lot but by no means do they mean you've mastered the champion. I think it's safe to say no one outside of master+challenger (or maybe Diamond 1) has mastered a champion. If you had truly mastered the champion you'd win lane so hard and carry so many games you'd be at that level.

Anyways, Vayne is one of the hardest champions in the game to master. She's technically very hard to play. While she's a bit OP lately and that may result in a 50%+ win rate at low elos, she's probably not the best long-term ADC to be playing in high bronze / low silver.

Otherwise though, yes, stick with ADC. It's preseason! I'm not saying to entirely blame it on the patch, but it's definitely something to do with how new everything is. Maybe your item build isn't optimal, or your mastery page isn't the best. Maybe you're just playing against imbalanced champions. Maybe it's just because you're getting overwhelmed by little details.

When preseason 5 started I went something like 1W 16L in normal drafts. However season 5 as a whole went quite well for me. It takes some time to get used to changes, even if the champion you're playing doesn't seem to be affected. Especially if you're playing a balanced champion and not the OP stuff (because then there's a 55.5% chance the OP stuff is ending up on the enemy team rather than your own).

Just give it time. If you find after another 2 patches you still can't do okay from ADC, then maybe consider a change.

Hi ValyrianBlade (im a fan of Game of Thrones :) ) Thanks for the positivness on me :). Yes the thing about mastery points I just put it in order to create a perspective of how much time I invested on the role.

I am aware of Vaynes difficulty level, thats what I like most of her, and I was able to make good plays with her. But right now im failing with her, but that doesnt really matter anyways.

Yes I will do what you say. I will play for some more patches and see what I can get from it. Ill start playing other ADCs rather than Tristana ,Vayne or Kalista. Im really liking Corki for now.

Talkrr, I havent considered that part, I should learn something from the other roles. And i cant really do anything for the ping lol.

Thanks for helping me with this guys :D

Just keep experimenting with new builds you'll find something that works.
