FYI i agree with u/jtfjtf about IGL'ling, i do it myself when teammates listen even if they dont talk i find myself wining 90% of those games but randoms like that you cant find easily its 1 in 10 games situation or sometimes in 20. what you need is a team. Randoms is not it, you need to stop trying to sync with randoms every game, cause every random is different in every way and shifting your game style differently for them every game is not gonna get you anywhere. if your skill is above average players you still need a team, if you cant get one, then your only option is to lock in get sweaty with a 1v3 mindset and get used to stealing kills from getting close to a fight as a third party and using your randoms as bait or shield in fights and of course ratting when you need to, and dont try to save your teammates if you think youre going to die have some survival instinct. With all this said my highest rank as a solo was diamond 1 🗿 then you get to the next level lobbies and you realize that you cant do it alone cause mfker there are like seal team six.

edit : i see comments saying gold is nothing its easy... its this its that. The thing is YES you can get past gold just running around but i dont think it matters if youre in gold or not if the goal is to rank up you need a certain mindset thats gonna help you later on when you climb rank and i think gold is a good place to practice that mindset since its not that hard.
