Matchmaking prevents from getting higher ranks? Should matchmaking system be revised?

My story (you can skip this paragraph if u don't care): I'm playing league for quite a long time and consider myself belonging to sth around G3 but I can't advance past S4 this season last season I think it was S3 and S2 one more season before (I play mostly solo Q, fill (what currently means supp)). Around 50% of games I can consider being even, 30% enemy team crushes mine, 20% my team wins with ease. I have ~ 50% win rate and now I'm litterally stuck on the edge of S4 and S5 (win 1, lose 2 (drop to S5), win 2 (start series to S4), lose 2 (fail series), win 2 (series starts), Win 1 (promoted) and after few games cycle starts again). The biggest obstacle is that I'm matchmade mostly with ppl that I'm better than (at least from what I can deduct from this one match (lower number of games played, worse stats, less gold, etc (leave alone the leavers, DCs, flamers, and 'mid or feed' kinda guys)

I think that a lot of ppl suffer because of current matchmaking. I hope to bring riot attention to this issue. Please participate in the poll and leave your comments.

Matchmaking isn't usually what holds people back, though it can be a factor but all in all the only thing consistent through all games you play is you are in them.

Well I started to doubt it when 2 of my friends surpased me in ranks while i'm usually playing better than them and usually getting them rekt in 1v1s. Also 80% of my ranked games I play as supp so win or lose depends more on my team than me... But anyway it's a bit strange when supp bests most of the team in stats, gold, dmg dealt to champs isn't it?

I mean looking at your match history some of your builds and masterys are weird, like grasp on your tank supports.
