Help me please. Why am I bronze.
Just why, how can I improve. It seems no matter what I do I lose.

Stop playing 50 different champions. Pick 2 roles, pick 2 champions for each, and only play them.
These are kind of random goodies.
Matchmaking isn't very accurate currently, so if you are new you are likely facing far more experienced players all the time. You may have also been placed to high in ranked ladder. Keep trying. Focus on you and what you can do to carry. Pay attention to your teammates, but DO NOT focus on performance. Try to predict what is going to happen on the map and warn.
For instance if you don't know where the jungle is and botlane is pushed out. Just say hey bot, I'm not sure where jungle is and you guy are out pretty far. Don't tell them what to do, just observe the map. Mid is missing for instance, ping and type it out. Clear communication.
Focus objectives. If your team is losing fights and its not even close, don't fight, split or use wards and try to catch people out. Sometimes you just can't do anything about a bad teamfighting team/comp.
Play jungle, top or mid. Play easy champs, for instance those without skillshots. If your lane plays safe, push the lane in and roam, ward up enemy jungle, gank other lanes. Don't miss your farm.
Work on your farming and map awareness.
Learn and play currently strong champs.
Never flame your team, in fact do the opposite, encourage them in practical ways. Such as try to play safe and I'll come gank, or let him push in and me and mid will come help you kill him. Practical clear communication. Never ask your teammates 'why', ever. If you get flamed, mute and move on, do not focus on your bad play. Focus on what you CAN do about your current situation.
Try to always ward the enemy buff closest to you before the game starts. Ward over walls, don't just walk into them.
This is to keep track of the enemy jungle. Tell your team where you think he is, ward his buffs every so often to find him.
If your jungle is ganking for you, be ready, initiate if you can, bait, whatever, help him. Nothing is worse for a jungle than coming to gank a lane and getting nothing for it because the laner just stands there.
Recognize by your matchup if you will likely be ganked, play the lane accordingly. For instance if you are against a riven or fiora, champs that snowball super hard and carry- expect jungle to come top as soon as possible. Do not push your lane, let it push into you and try to freeze it at turret.
If you are not confident in a matchup, play like it. Don't just random all in. Allow your team to carry.
Allow your team to carry. This means that if your other lanes are doing fine and you are sucking. Don't die twice and then keep on dying, you are throwing away a possibly free game for no reason. Chill and let your team do their thing without giving them more problems than you just being weak.
In champ select be smart, if you are first picking your lane be sure to pick something safe or super strong. Assume when you are picking that they will pick your worst nightmare.
Have a few runepages for different scenarios. For instance if you are top against a ranged toplaner. Take armor quints and yellows so you can farm, build into sustain items early. Have a runepage ready for vs an ap top.
There is so much to know, the learning curve for this game is enormous. Also, all tiers are trolly, its not just bronze. Silver feels no different than bronze for the most part. Get used to it, it feels pretty damn random at the moment.
Play one champion. This way you can focus on the actual game, instead of the champion if you know what I mean.
Learn how to win lane and how to spread your advantage to your team.
