I truly can't understand

How people can play this game and instantly tilt when they don't get the role they want.

I would love to carry games in bronze, I really would, but when half the players have never played anything outside of a single role in team builder, and then instantly tilt going into a game because they've never played a role, I don't see how it's possible.

Last game my top laner tilts going into the game because he's forced to play top lane, and results by endlessly harassing the ADC for every mistake made during the game, because he wanted ADC instead. Which since nobody comprehends the concept of the mute button, the ntilts the adc who just goes melee range into every fight. By the end of the game, they're dying going into fights because they're too busy yelling at each other like a couple of children throwing temper tantrums. I'm playing Viktor and I'm 2.5 items up on the other laner, our jg is 2 items up on the other jungler, and everything is going great, we're winning fights, but from 20 minutes in Mundo is constantly throwing surrender votes and saying GG when a single person dies.

The game before that is someone who locks in MF ADC and clearly has never played the champion before, as he's used all of his mana 2 minutes into the lane, and only hit maybe half of the CS, who does he blame? His support, because he's walking into a 1v2 while the support roams and dies repeatedly. Guy suicided at minimum of 4 times to the enemy ADC, but it wasn't his fault cus his support wasn't there when he apparently tried to go have an intimate threesome with Braum and Tristana repeatedly.

The game before that someone instalocks devourer Yi into a team that's already packing a big chunk of CC, only to get further countered by even more CC. He afk farms, all lanes lose due to jungle pressure being applied all game long while he AFK farms the jungle. Top lane tilts hard, surrender spams, even after we win a lot of that gold back from good fights, and he takes 3 tower and an inhib as a split pushing jax.

And before that we get someone locking in Caitlyn to counter pick Vayne, but has never played Caitlyn before, but it's okay because according to some website Caitlyn counter Vayne so it should be easy. Game starts and she gets first blooded by the vayne, and proceeds to die 3 more times from overextending super hard. I don't even get a chance to gank the lane before it's no longer possible to gank due to it being a suicide with Vayne already having 4 kills.

Were there things I could have done better at specific points, sure, and I took note of it to improve those issues, but there's one prevailing feature in each game. Every single game, there was at minimum of one person endlessly raging at the person doing poorly, which obviously tilted them and they proceed to play even more poorly. Who in their right mind actually believes that endlessly harassing another player will do anything other than make that player play even worse than they already are. I just fail to understand how people don't realize that flaming your team only makes them play worse and raises your blood pressure. Knock it off and I'm sure your games will be much better going forward.

Want to get out of Bronze? CS more (your CS is actually decent compared to most people that make these, but still needs improvement). Mute people as soon as they get toxic. Don't give up. Be passive if you're 0/2.

Actually, you seem so "not terrible" at this game, I'd recommend you try just playing Annie tomorrow. Seriously. You have a good winrate on Lb, it'll only get better on an easy champion like Annie. Filling doesn't help you win.
