I am looking for any type of advice i can get to help end my losing in ranked/normal etc. I have no idea what to do anymore every match i get in at least 2 people on my team hardcore feed and i am stuck trying to drag a team to a win (which 90% of the time fails) around 80% of the time i go positive in my matches i try everything i know to help my team win every game from buying wards to roaming to having good CS etc and it doesn't work. I have no clue what is left to try but i am tired of losing because my team cant get there ish together. granted i have a bad game every now and then ( who doesnt) but most of the time i end up with a 5/16 yi and some other lane going 2/12 by the end. One person can only carry so hard. IDK WHAT TO DO HELP

How to end a losing streak:

Step 1: Take a break from ranked. Practice in Normals.

Step 2: There's always something you could have done better. Find that thing each game. Find more than one. There's always more than one.

Step 3: Make this number go up. You aren't really warding as much as you could, especially as support.

Step 4: Work on CS. I don't even need to look it up. You can always improve your CS, regardless of rank.

Step 5: Improve your builds. On Warwick, I would take Skirmisher's Sabre or Stalker's Blade with Devourer, then BORK, then go tanky. Your builds are mostly fine, though.

If you keep playing jungle and support with good champs you will be fine in the long run. Some games are not winnable, and a lot of lower ranked (i am b5 too) early game lane feeders are very temperamental and will snowball even harder when criticized.

One of the things I've tried to learn is how to synergize a team. Any time you're not a top pick, take a look at what the rest of your team has (or ask what they're intending to play), and try to find something that helps them do what those champs want to do. Oftentimes I've found that being able to make my teammates better at what they want to do goes a long way towards winning games.

For example, if your mid picked Yasuo, grab a champ with some displacement/knockup (such as Draven Gragas Malphite , etc) to set up his ult.

Or, if you've got very AoE focused damage-dealers (say Ziggs mid and MissFortune adc), grab someone that can keep the enemy team around so that damage hits (Amumu JarvanIV , etc).

Beyond that, I think Icestar1186 covered things pretty well - and if you have to start somewhere, start with his advice before bothering with the above. First and foremost, you want to work on getting better at doing the things you need to do.

For builds - look some up, then take them to normals to try them out. Then experiment - shift things to find what works for you, then practice with that some. Be willing, in any game, to modify your build to fit the situation. Whenever you're not playing a major damage source, be willing to build for the team rather than just yourself. If no one else is building that Frozen Heart or Locket that could make the difference in close fights, you do it.

Last thing? Try to expand your playable champion pool. I like most of your picks (except Vayne - but that's just because Vayne irritates me), but more comfortable options is always good.

On bad teams both are quite miserable roles. But they can do a lot of good as well. There are junglers for every situation, like if I feel a team will be weak laning I wont even go for strong ganks; but go for guys that can cover well without falling behind Sion DrMundo .
