Silver Elo Problem

So I play Mid but recently I feel many games simply come down to 2 things:

1. Which team has more people who just keep getting randomly caught and killed over and over and over
2. Who has more CC

If you are the team on the wrong side of the above, as a glass cannon Mid like you often feel like there's just very little you can do.

I play for about 20 minutes, try to kill the other laner and either take the power to Bot with Ganks or push Mid. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

But past that point, unless our team is already hugely advantaged... it usually comes down to the above 2 factors. And when you're on the wrong end of it BOY is it stupid.

So there's usually this 1 (sometimes 2) person on the team who just keeps getting caught over and over and over by enemy CC and killed (either cause there's no vision for him, he's just farming far away, somehow has screwy rotation patterns, gets baited etc etc etc). As soon as he's gone, the rest of the team just enters this LOSE-LOSE mode. If you retreat, you give up free objectives... if you fight... well, you lose 4 vs 5. But of course, generally my team won't have the discipline to retreat, Ping or no Ping.

IN either event, the next time he's up (that guy who gets caught), he's going rinse and repeat.

And the rest of us just feel SO POWERLESS.

How do these 30-19 type scores emerge? Its because of this stupid pattern. 1 or 2 idiots wander around... Caught/Baited due to screwy rotations, bad decisions, faulty movements. BOOM BOOM BOOM.

Meanwhile I'm wondering what I can do at that point as the MId. isn't a 4 vs 5 champ. Also, it cost them NOTHING to eliminate our team's one idiot; so its not like there are any cooldowns here for me to exploit. We're all going to have deal with their FULL ARSENAL of CC again.

And I won't 4 vs 5... doesn't mean the rest of the team won't. And even if they are smart and retreat, it doesn't mean the ennemy won't take objectives. And when that idiot respawns... BOOM. He repeats.

So what do I do?

I have no initiation/frontline capability and in any event, we can't do any of that either because we're always 4. I can't use Summoners and 100-0 their backline, not until I have about 3 items and by then we're just too behind.

So what do you do?
