How to deal with losing very winnable game.

Hey guys, I’ve been playing Master Yi for the past two weeks. I’ve always loved hyper-scaling champions—back when I started, Kayle’s evolving passive hooked me for months and months and i still wouldve olayed only kayle if she was viable in jgl.

​My main issue with Yi (and Kayle) isn't the champion; it's team mental. I know I can carry if given a little time to scale. However, the worst losses happen when laners get ganked once or twice by a jarvan, tilt, and lose first tower by 10 minutes because they dont care to try anymore.

​Even then, many of these games are still winnable, but my team gives up, either spamming FF or completely checking out mentally. When playing Viego or Shyvana, I always blame myself for not counter-gankingor preventing enemy top from stompint the map, but on Yi I just need time and for my team to playbthe damn game out.

​I know it's Gold and these games aren't every match, but I swear losing ONE totally winnable game because the team lost patience feels worse than a 10-game loss streak where we just got outplayed.

Should i add an early game champ to my pool? Is this the meta now? Tilt laners with perma ganking until they start inting. Or do i need to be active more even before 6 or first item?

Would loss streaks with new account affect my climb?

I made a new account to climb with and initially placed in Iron. I managed to climb to Silver 1 with a 55% win rate over 60 games( not a single iron player was stomped in the process, only smurfs and 40 minutes games). However, the game then started putting me into full Plat and Emerald lobbies, and I lost 8 games in a rowacross multiple days losing 10 lp a loss, after winning 5 games on a row before it gaining 30 lp a win. My gains and losses are still the same but Do you think my MMR is ruined? What are the chances the system now thinks I don't belong in Emerald, even though i feel like some of these losses were completely out of my control ?

Second strong pick

I’ve been meaning to one-trick Viego. I’ve been playing League for years, know what every ability in the game does, and picking up Viego these past 3 months is the most fun I’ve had in this game in ages. Honestly, if I can’t climb with him, I don’t want to climb at all.

​Lately, though, it feels hard to win certain games. I feel like I'm losing us the match from champ select whenever the enemy drafts a tank/engage top or an enchanter supp. On top of that, every game a Graves or Syndra exists, I already know it's a loss. If my team isn’t absolutely stomping, I just feel completely useless.

I know some peopl may carry and win those matches i just cant and would rather just play something else since its so far and few between.

​Can anyone recommend another champion to add to my pool that can effectively fill Viego's gaps? Without putting alot of hours into.

Should I spam ranked games to end the split, or stick to blocks?

​

Quick question guys, ​I recently made a new account to see how high I can actually climb after years of just trolling and playing for fun on my main. Things are going well so far but im playing very few games so its been a very slow but steady climb (from iron to silver2) problem is plit is almost over, and I'm sitting at roughly a 60%w over 50 games

​I have a lot of free time on my hands this week, so I'm debating whether iShould I just spam as many games as possible , or stick to a disciplined routine (like two blocks of 3 games a day)?
