How do I know if I'm good with a champion?

This might be a strange question, but I've just had a horrendous lose streak on ranked, and I want to come back from it.

I know the KDA is a telltale sign to this question, but is there any less obvious signs to show how good you really are with a champion?

Like, I want to say I'm good with certain champions, but other players might see something that I can't.

Okay so this is how I judge whether or not I'm mastering a certain champ by asking myself the following questions.

Am I confident with playing this champion?

Do you know the limits of your champion?

What level does this particular champion powerspike or what item allows them to powerspike?

And the ultimate question. Can I carry?

Personally these questions give me a few tips on what areas I should be looking into if I'm new to a champion or am just flat out confused with it. KDA doesn't mean much to me since that largely relies on whether or not you can make good calls in matches.

If i am crushing nearly every game as that champion in normals, then i will play them in ranked. Just be confidant. When champion mastery comes out what you could do is not use a champion in ranked until you hit a certain level with them. I probably going to do that

You know you're good with a champion when you hit master tier and still do well consistently.

Outside of that put simply, your win-rate says a lot more than kda.

If you are playing a tank or a support it is difficult to judge your performance by any numbers but if you are playing a damage dealer then obviously damage dealt to champions is the metric you should look at.

If you lose a game as a mid with a 4/1/6 score then I guess its easy to say "it wasnt my fault" but if your oposing laner did 3x your damage and you did less then your own support annie then its entirely possible the game was lost by you not the other players.
