I'm trying to learn ADC role, but doing extremely bad, therefore being reported a lot. HELP

I've had a bad week, losing and dropping divisions a lot... I am still practicing ADC and my friend is trying to teach me. But, lately, as I'm learning, I'm doing extremely bad. I went 1/20/11 with Lucian and 3 people reported me for intentionally feeding. I promise that I wasn't doing it on purpose and that I'm still learning how to play ADC. This happened a lot lately. I do EXTREMELY bad and then people think I am feeding on purpose. I try to learn a new champion and people are yelling about me to uninstall or never play again. I just want to learn to play the role but I'm doing extremely bad and causing people to report me for intentionally feeding. I can't practice without someone criticizing and not helping me learn how to play. I'm scared that this is happening too much and that people are reporting me to a point where I'll get banned. What should I do? I am not doing this on purpose and I'm scared I'll get perma-banned soon, since Riot is focusing on that a lot. Note: I usually only play ADC in normals, such as the Lucian game, but I am not doing this in rank games.

Please answer these for me? I really want to continue playing, but I'm scared of being banned and I want to improve:

  1. Will Riot Ban me because I'm doing bad frequently (but I'm trying to learn) because I do poorly?

  2. I've watched a lot of Youtube Videos on how to adc, but it still is hard for me. Tips please?

Note: I usually only play ADC in normals, such as the Lucian game, but I am not doing this in rank games.

No, you will never get banned for playing poorly

Rule of adc is don't worry about focusing targets. Just hit the dude closest to you and stay alive

You not gonna get banned for failing in normals. But you do need to play vs bots if you die morethan 15 times in a game

playing against intermediate bots might help with mechanics and csing, but there's not much that you can do to replicate playing against actual people. bots aren't really an effective way to practice because they're usually worse than people in normals and you will rarely need situational builds against them.

Practice in bot games to get your mechanics down pact.

From there move on to normals. Make sure your team knows you're new to this and learning.

Practice csing first while avoiding taking damage, make sure your support knows to back you on this.

When ganks come from your jungle, just go for whoever is closest, but don't put yourself in harms way to do it.

Similar rule for team fights, hit whoever is closest, but don't put yourself in harms way.

as an adc it is must that you practice getting at least 60 CS by the 10 minute mark before even dreaming of playing against other players.

play kog maw he still requires all the mechanics other adc's need but his long range makes it so you dont die as often its still likely for you to die if you aren't carefull
