personal rank or team rank?

Why is it that our personal rank score is based on the win lose ratio of a random assigned team. i could understand this if we all played as a ranked team 5v5 every game. But we do not. We play a 5v5 ranked with players we do not know. We have a score system in place for after the match, it shows from s to d. Why cant it be that a player that gets a score of s in every game from 5v5 solo que with all loses get ranked better than bronze? if you are getting a and s scores on a regular basis, clearly you do not belong in bronze, but your win lose ratio shows that you are getting teamed up with players that do belong in bronze. I personally feel that solo que should be ranked on your scores, not your win lose

This is a bad idea. This would promote playing greedily and less for the team. Anyone can get an S as long as they get fed. Not everyone can translate that S to a win though. If you're having trouble climbing it's your fault. This is because the enemy team will generally be full of ransoms they don't know as well. Also, how in the world would a champion mastery score relate to LP?

This is a team game.

Your ability to work with a variety of different players and champions is a significant part of that ranking.
