I just need some tips on how to carry. I'm in bronze III and every game i get matched up with noob players that feed or afk. (I have lost 11 games in a row already) I also have 100 more mmr than average players in my tier and Its kinda really starting to piss me off.

I know how you feel man I only play ranked once a day now because I'm so tired of seeing these players they lack communication 10% of the time and the other %90 of the time they troll or afk

As someone with a 17-3 record with jungle nunu, I can tell you that the best way to carry isn't necessarily stomping lane and dealing tons of damage. You can carry a game simply by controlling vision on the map, especially in bronze where the enemy almost definitely won't have any vision at all.

Alright, here goes. cracks knuckles and types.

"every game i get matched up with noob players that feed or afk. (I have lost 11 games in a row already)"

How do I put this without making an ass of myself... I don't think the problem is your teams entirely. From reading this, you probably have a poor attitude in games, and attitude wins out. period. Face the fact that you are in Bronze for a reason, and seek to make yourself as a player and as a team member, overall better. If you are truly a god though, and are stuck in this fabled ELO Hell, then just play either support and get your carry fed, or play jungle and help all lanes and control objectives. Do that, and if you are the god you might think you arw, then you should be out in no time, if not... look at what you could do to personally improve. I am not talking down to you, I know how hard it is I had just left Bronze yesterday after being placed Bronze VI in the beginning of the ranked season.

Pay attention to which member of your team can destroy turrets fastest. Try to protect them & get them fed then aim for turrets. Get turrets as an objective then... Spam V-Pings on everyone to base if the enemy team has any chance of killing any of you.

Also, yeah, you may as well just start new accounts, I had 20 games in a row of people who fed & died like 45x in the first 10-15 minutes, followed by four-man-surrender-voting, forcing me to end up being demoted into Bronze twice in the fifth season, I mean, rather than playing through HUNDREDS of games just to climb out, better to just level up a new account with that kind of time instead.

Solo-Queue is MOSTLY about LUCK as far as I'm concerned. The last game I was the lowest-ranked, with four Gold-V's on my team, and four Gold-V's on the enemy team (and they had a Silver I), and somehow I managed to carry the shizzelnitz out of that game, especially considering how this season started off with EVERY single match after placements ending at 20 minutes in a four-man surrender-vote (occasionally for 30 fucking matches in a damn row !).

The Elo-System MAY be "mathematically sound" in THEORY but in PRACTICE it's TERRIBLE due to the fact that the amount of points you gain is based ENTIRELY on whether your opponents have more points for you to steal from or not (and the amount of smurfs causes a lot of inflation/deflation of ranks where I wonder how the HELL some of these people got their Gold-Borders whilst a lot of STRONG players somehow managed to get placed in Bronze/Silver).

The problems are also described here in this article (kind of like how to choose your opponents in order to have a maximum chance of rewards if you win whilst risking VERY FEW loss of points if you lose against chosen opponent)... https://www.thechesspiece.com/what_is_an_elo_rating.asp

Queue-Dodging & having multiple smurf-accounts is the only really semi-reliable way to not have yourself demoted from the troll-match-maker-system. One account requires a queue-dodge ? Not a problem ! Just hop onto the next one, and if it repeats, the next, and if you cycle through all of the accounts, then quit for the day, and that way you only lose 3LP instead of -10LP per subsequent queue-dodge !
