So anyone that is reading this, i can assume you may be able to help me..
since i started playing league, I've been speeding ahead of all my other friends in terms of experience and skill at playing my favorite champions to the point where it takes me 5 minutes to win a 1v1 against any of them without dying once.
the problem is, i'm fearful of being flamed and/or entering ranked. i'm an akali main, and I know she used to be permabanned, which isn't so peachy, as well as my tendency to steer clear of PvP because I know I will be defeated by those much better than me.
is there any way to help this? or will I be stuck in unranked for all of eternity??

I understand your insecurities, I used to be really insecure as wel when I started with this game.
If you see someone being toxic, even though the flame isn't adressed to you, just mute him. If you want you can also mute all at the start of the game.
Play games with friends. It's more fun and you can coördinate better.
Remember that it's just a game and have fun. If you have a bad game (we all have them) take a pause before starting another game to prevent tilting.
I hope this helps!
i'll gladly take your suggestions
(have some free rep too.)
Also Akali is definitely not permabanned anymore since the healing nerf.
Ranked is tougher than normal games in general and normal games are MUCH harder to win than co-op games. I think if you haven't played any normal games, you should absolutely avoid ranked for the time being. Instead, try dipping your toes in normal games. Back when I started playing, I was recommended to first get 100-200+ wins in PvP before attempting ranked. I know that sounds like a lot, but the experience you get in those games is invaluable later on when you tackle ranked. You simply cannot go from playing against bots to playing against real players who will try hard to win.
As far as flame goes, league can be a pretty toxic game. But if you stick with playing with friends you can completely avoid any toxicity. I suggest doing so and muting all-chat as well since nothing constructive ever comes from there. If people do start arguing with you, you can just mute them and move on. Unfortunately people online can be really rude for no reason, so it'll be impossible to avoid flame in the long run. But just remember that you are not supposed to play perfectly, everyone makes mistakes in the game and anyone who chooses to harass another person over accidentally making a mistake in a video game is just an ******* whose opinion really doesn't matter.
..the funny thing is, when i first got to level 30, the LAST THING I wanted to do was get into ranked-
most of my friends are below me..
so i "tutor" them for the time being, hoping to go into ranked together. it's hard.
