I can only Jungle

and this que system is really messing me up.

I cannot lane except against people a full league or more below me. Don't bother with tips. I've tried for thousands of games I just don't have the micro and tunnel too hard.

Unfortunately the new que system basically means the only options for me are jungle or feed. I really don't like that and wish there was something I could do but I don't know what could be done about it. I hate premades and am not a fan of queing with a support to assure my role.

Not even really sure why I post this. Just venting against the two role system I guess.

How is the old system any different save for team builder? In ranked you had a HUGE chance not to get your role. Do you remember how old ranked was? If you're last pick you basically got whatever role no one else wanted ( generally support). THis way you at least get one of the two roles.

Practice in normals until you can get better...I was awful at laning, and was much better jungle but I'm improving slowly and am at my rank now for top I feel.

If I was going to get better at lanes I'd have done it several thousand games ago. I simply do not possess diamond level micro in lane. The difference between the previous set up and the current one is that I could main jungle in 80% of games and get support 20%. Now it's physically impossible to go jg/sup and actually get JG. As sup I could still ward and do the least damage to the team as janna with ~48% win rate but with a 30% or so in any other role. I'm literally a lodestone as a laner. There's nothing I can do at this point to fix that and really there's not much I can do about this sad state of affairs.

I Tried that. It didn't work. Got mid 4 games in a row.

No. Riot forces me to feed for an entire game and have a 20-30% chance of winning because I cannot get the role distribution I wanted of about 80% JG and 20% support. I was better off when no one got their role because Most people mained mid/top/adc which meant 4/5 games I got JG regardless. Alternatively you can tell them "I can only JG well." and the overwhelming majority would let you play it.
