Does no one care anymore? (Ranked)

I don't know if people just stopped caring about ranked, or if people just don't know how to play this game, but for the last month I literally cannot get past the rank I am now due to feeders, flamers and people who can't understand basic mechanics in this game. I know you're all gonna go "git gud fggt" or "No it's clearly your fault! They always blame their whole team!" But I must stand by my point because for this past month I've been trying my damn hardest to get out of bronze 1 just do I would be able to duo with my boyfriend, But no matter what no one on my team cares enough or just doesn't know the game at all. It's a TEAM game, everyone keeps saying "Carry the game yourself! carry yourself out of bronze!" I literally can't, I do not possess the skills necessary enough to carry everyone. I know I'm not the best player but I can't do it by myself, maybe by some stroke of luck or miracle I'll finally be able to make it out. But for now it just seems impossible for me if no one on my team seems to want to cooperate. I just don't understand why anyone who plays this game is not willing to cooperate with their team, it takes the fun out of it and makes it hard to enjoy it when people do this. Sometimes individual skill isn't enough, I need my team... but it's kinda hard to play the game if I don't have one. I'm not asking for sympathy, I just want someone to level with me and understand, because I know a lot of people out there experience this too. EVERYONE has. I'm sorry if this was long and pointless. But I just really needed to rant. Thanks to the people who took their time to read this. Maybe I should just... "GIT GUD" :/

There are a lot of solutions actually. First, have fun. It's a ranked game but it's not illegal to enjoy it. You are also vague about describing your teammates, "But for now it just seems impossible for me if no one on my team seems to want to cooperate." Are they afking, trolling, toxic verbal abuse? Those guys are bad, nothing you can do about it. But never confuse stubborn or inexperienced players as uncooperative, they are just trying to win their own way (like you are).

Work with your team, no matter how uncooperative or bad they are. Because guess what? Your enemy team is just as bad/inexperienced as well. If you are experienced as you imply yourself to be, you can be able to work with your teammates. Give them compliments for their good stuff, ask for their strategies and ideas during the game and actually try it out/listen to them for once. You will never be able to 1v5, ever. It's better to make a bad decision as a team than it is to make a good one by yourself. Because again, you'll never be able to 1v5, ever. Keep a positive attitude, make the chat a bit more happier to be in (NEVER give criticism unless they request it). Crack drug jokes, whatever. Forgive if someone messes up and take things lightly and not serious. These are individuals sitting in their own chairs staring at their monitors like you are. They also want to win as well but they view their own way to win differently.

I'm sorry if this is long but I hope this is decent advice. You're going to have to learn to work with a bad team, that's just the honest truth. No shortcuts, no tips, no tricks, no books or tutorials. Sometimes, playing with bad teams can be the most fun experiences you can ever play with (from a personal experience) as long as you don't care too much and let go. Good luck and I hope you can make it to Silver but have fun!
