How am I suppose to Improve my game experience?

I am at a total loss as to what i can do.

I cannot pull myself out of silver 5 no matter how hard i try. Every game I get a guy who dc, or a feeder, or a person who has no idea what they are doing at all. One person in team says something another person doesn't like and it goes to shit. I finally win enough games to get to my series and some asshole makes a game out of feeding enemy players or says in game "Sorry all I can do is Yi mid". back I go all the way to the low end of silver 5.

Yeah this game is fun and has alot of replay value, but the player base is terrible and riot doesn't seem to take measures to fix the assholes. I get a 30 minute punishment que because I leave champion select over every team mate swearing and being racist to each other before the game even starts. But I don't know what else to do than just dodge the game so I don't lose more LP. I do not have any In real life friends that play this game so we can help each other along, some of them don't find it interesting while others quit due to the same circumstances I am in. They just got fed up and moved to another moba or something else completely. I do not want to do that, but this is getting exhausting. I do not want to come home from a long day at work only to be frustrated all night and feel like a failure as a player because I can't seem to help myself get out of this cesspool. That has other effects too. Why should I bother putting money into the game because i know I am paying to be frustrated by toxic players.

and yeah I'll admit. there are times I will lose my cool and freak out in game just like any player who loses 7 matches in a row. You sit and watch your team mates feed and yell at each other, then nobody wants to surrender in game so you are forced to stay there longer makes you want to pull your hair out. i know this is a big rant, but at least it is helping me blow off some steam.

is there anything anybody can suggest to make my ranked games better? cause I am almost at my limit.

Honestly it might just mean you are in the right division. If you've reached your peak the only way to climb is to get better and that can take a lot of time.

The only suggestion I have is to focus on your own play and do the best that you can.

During the regular season, anytime i got on edge. Would take a complete break 20+ until i cooled off. Playing angry you'll just stay angry and play worse making more mistakes. All games are winnable, but you can't win them all. Play for fun and to improve, if you play to win you'll get mad and begin to make more and more mistakes not realizing it. Its something i need to work on again, sometimes the toxic community just pulls out the monster inside.

Hope that helps

The only way to progress Ranked is to find 4 other friends that are experienced in the game, if you try alone with random people its impossible

Play duo queue. Find someone. There is no other way. In one month, I got from silver III to silver I and got stuck there. Then I played premade with a friend of mine who was Gold V and I got to Gold III in two weeks. Of course, we had communication and we felt more comfortable, thus the rapid climbing. Also, when you are on a loss streak, you WILL be on tilt. Stop playing, relax, watch a movie, talk to someone and after half an hour or a whole hour play ranked again. But if you want my opinion, if you are on tilt, stop playing at all and play the next day again.

Basically what they are suggesting it, if you are bad, find someone to carry you. What they dont realise is, that YOU need to improve to climb. If you cant climb, its not your team, its simple fact that you are already where you belong. If you gonna go 2:12 with Garen, its not your team. Its you. If you gonna pick Urgot and afk in fountain whole game after 1 death, its not your team. Its you. Noone is holding you back except you. Its pretty possible to advance on your own, as long as you consistently play good.

take a break, play normals, then go back to ranked after a few days or even a week
