I could use a bit of feedback on my performance from higher tiers.

I've been playing ranked during the preseason, trying to boost my MMR. I figure, I could get platinum next year if I work hard enough, which I'm willing to do, so I'm trying to boost my skills.

As of this post, I'm Gold 4-5. While I did work hard to get here from Bronze 5 (hallelujah), I hold no kind of superiority or condescension given that there are higher levels to go for.

Lately, however, I'm thinking that my teammates are actually holding me back; I've been in a lot of games that are un-carriable because someone fed a hard carry ridiculously hard, my support has NO idea how to support (I'm an adc main btw), and one or two of my teammates continually get into bad fights for no reason, then blame me for not helping, when it was clear that there was no winning a 2v4 when you're 1/5 with 114 cs at 25 minutes while they are 5/1 with 180 cs @ 22 minutes.

Anyway, I digress. Here's my op.gg: http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=Goodbye%20Apathy

Tell me what you think, and if you would like to play a game with me, my name is as follows. Please tell me what I should improve upon and let me know what I can do to get better.

#1 rule never blame anyone but ur self. I'm a D4 player and I can tell u if u can't climb no more then that is where ur skill cap is. I know personally that there are trolls from bronze to challengers, and it's just the way how the game is.

First of all, do not play a billion different champions. Stick to 3/4 ad carries in your case and have 3/2 champions for the other lanes. Your creepscore is consistently good so you won't have any trouble in that regard. OK so about the teammates part, you should follow their calls even if they are bad. I am not saying that if they engage in a no win teamfight scenario you should frontline with them, but generally try to be with your team as much as possible. Think of yourself as a babysitter, and your teammates are the babies, let them out of your sight once, and they will fuck up. That's some general advice I can give you, although by no means am I an expert in climbing or the adc role, nor have I seen your actual play, I am only judging by your sayings and op.gg.
