need some help in ranked please

So I have been playing ranked games as much as I can (8 outa 10 are ranked) and I have found myself losing more then winning (big surprise right?). I know in ranked you belong to the rank you are given till you get better and out grow the rank, but I feel like I have already outgrown it and am still trapped in it. I have read several tips and tricks guides and I try my best to use them as a guide line to help further my gameplay, but I still find myself losing. I ward well even though I main mid. I still buy and ward when I can. I know my role as a squishy assassin. I try and stay in the back and wait for people to engage in a team fight then pick off the carrys. I try and help my team focus objectives (sometimes to no avail).

I'm just kinda at a loss. I feel like there's something holding me back, but I can't put my finger on it.

Main lanes and champs. In order from best to worst

Mid: Akali Leblanc Katarina and Yasuo I am equal at both

Bot supp:Morgana Janna

Jg: Rengar

Adc Vayne

Top needs some work I use Akali, yas and vayne, but not the best tops sometimes I need to learn some tanks.

Any help is nice. Feel free to add me and message me. I'm not on 24/7, but I can chat using my phones LOL chat client at anytime. I have loads of lolreplays don't even know how many. So that's that. Hope you guys can give me some useful tips and help me become a better player. :D

Hope to see you on the rift!

If your playing mid lane as an assassin you need to roam. If you want to win more games then you need to control more games. That means making leads in your lane or other lanes and snowballing the game with your assassinations. no stupid little tip will help you win games because the key to winning any game is decision making.

I looked at your match history. Very impressive! You seem to carry the games pretty hard on the ones you win. However, maybe diversifying your mid lane would help. You play champs that are dive reliant. With those champs, you either get ahead or you lose. Some games at low elo you can bounce back, but the higher you get the harder it is to come back from those type of games. Try playing some more ap mid mages that have different play styles like xerath who can poke, or lissandra who brings everything to a team. It might not be to your liking but It can help to be able to counter someone like annie for example. Who will punish you for diving. Also, your bot lane is pretty nice. Morg and janna are def up there but maybe a different adc? I can tell you like those assassin burst kill dodge skills type of champs. But each lane has so many different play styles that you can use towards your advantage. Remember, although picking the right team comp isn't as good as playing the champ you're best at, it does help to synergies well with your teammates. Try playing as a tank for a bit. Then try playing as a front line bruiser. And also a back line peeler. You'll get a good understanding of what all the roles do and their limits and expectations when playing along side them. And lastly, i'd say just keep trying to improve yourself. You will get better! Good Luck!
