So the last 10 games have been my ranked provisionals. A few of these games i encountered many trolls that refused to cooperate, "duo top", and people that didn't understand that when they lose their lane the best thing to do is play very defensively. This placed me in bronze 4. Can anyone tell me why? It frustrates me much so.

Shaco :)

You went 6-4 and got bronze 4? God your MMR must be trash.

Elo hell is most certainly real, it's all luck based. I can carry. I can take out 5 turrets. I can stack my Q perfectly with Nasus. I can get 0 ganks in my lane while surviving multiple ganks, 1v2/1v3, and yet my other laners somehow accomplish nothing while I'm fighting their entire team.

Just play your best and know how to do every role. If someone says they suck at ADC and good at the role you want, let them have it. It's better to call your preferred roles and let everyone pick the best role they're at before starting the champion select than claiming roles immediately or doing pick order. A mediocre jungler and a great ADC is better than a fantastic jungler and an ADC that feeds.

You are feeding way too much as support and as a shaco jungle.

Shaco is extremely slippery and should always be ganking i.e. in a good situation. There is no reason you should die 5+ times. There are some junglers that can die 5+ times and still be good, Shaco is not one of them. Shaco needs to keep himself fed, but most importantly, also needs to keep the opposing team down.

You could be dying to either counterganking, or because ppl catch you when you are splitpushing. Try to work on ward/box placement for splitpushing and predicting enemy jungler locations for counterganking.

Bro the real question should be: Do you enjoy playing the game? Elo doesn't matter even tournament players make mistakes or bad plays, just enjoy the game and get better at it. And to be honest with you there will always be trolls, noobs, noobs with op champs, noobs who panick pick random champs, guys who call random roles, people who dont practice a champ within a month and start ranked, people with dialup internet, people with 90's computers, people who have other shit to do in real life after hitting accept, and feeders in at least half your games. Then again I mostly play Aram and Draft Normals, there's way too many trolls in ranked to bother playing in it. Even if you want to play the game at a high elo then you'd experience the same crap AND 30 minute wait times. Seriously watch streams of pro players, you'll see the same bronze level behavior in challenger elo. Even Sneaky and Doublelift say they are still learning the game.

Hell I enjoy bot games where I can talk civily to other people just relaxing and farming ip or practicing than I've ever enjoyed even 1 freaking ranked match.
