How to win solo queue?

I am a mid lane main, I am very consistent in my ability to win lane and get kills. Often I find myself behind in creep score when I play LeBlanc, but I end up surpassing my opponent in gold anyway since i'm usually only down 10 cs and up 2 or 3 kills. In a lot of my recent matches, I've been winning lane very, very hard, but bot lane is always, simply put, bad, and in constant need of help. As a mid laner, I do my best to conduct a 4-man gank in the bottom lane when it is needed, and will usually make my jungler's calls for them.

After a few kills in mid, bot and a dragon, it just always seem to go downhill.

My bot lane believes now that they got 4 man'd they can be aggressive and continue to feed, and when teamfights start my AD carries seem to get killed over and over and we never actually have them in a fight. I just don' know what to do or how to make my life as a mid lane main who plays assassins easier for my teammates and how to get them to win fights..

TL:DR I win lane a lot and roam as much as I can to secure objectives but my teammates always seem to misplay or poorly perform in teamfights. How can I prevent this as a Mid lane assassin main?

Don't solo Que Rank. Duo Q with a friend for the simple reasons that -

1.Less of a chance of getting a troll/afk/feeder 2.Two people carrying 3 people is easier than 1 person carrying 4

You are just asking for headaches when you solo Q and making it harder on yourself. Bronze/silver Maybe even Gold you can carry because you can use the other teams lack of experience to counter your teams lack of experience. However. I still suggest Duo Q tho all the way for the two reasons above.

If you are going to solo Q bronze/silver as I didn't even check to see what you are, I suggest getting fed and pushing objectives using your team as decoys and avoiding team fights if your team is behind. It's a team game but in low elo neither team knows how to team fight correctly, just let them focus their energy on kills over objectives while you focus objectives and you will see your team will win because objectives are the main goal of the game.

In lower elo bronze/silver and sometimes gold there is no point going bot or top to get them fed if they don't even know what to do with the extra gold when they are fed. Sounds like a dick move but if you think you can carry the game just worry about getting yourself fed even if it means stealing kills and focusing objectives.
