How do I get out of silver?

But you know, the obvious answer to that question is just to get better, and sometimes, no matter how hard I try, I keep experience marathons of devastating losses — be it my fault, or teammates.

So I guess the other question, how does one really win a ranked game? I'm not going to say 'carry' because sometimes, you just cant get put into that carry role because someone else goes into it. I can play mid lane ok, infact I can do everything ok, but that's really it — I'm just ok.

So to further narrow the point — how can I improve? I keep making mistakes that I thought I told myself I'd never make again. Like going into that doomzone between midlane turret and the jungle wall, or using a gap closer near an enemy tower when someone like darius can just pull me in and fuck me for life.

So I guess that's it. There's tons of resources that I've tapped into, but I'm just throwing this out there for desperation's sake.

And last game, I had a yasuo that pretty much told a player to go kill himself. I feel that sometimes, I can just blame players for a loss due to attitude — but only in addition to my own mistakes.

Silver IV at 0lp right now. Oh well.

One last thing. If there's any high elo players out there that wouldn't mind coaching me, that would be swell.
