Hey everyone, Rorin back for another blogging. I'll try not to rant too much this time. I've just had a few things eating at me lately, and I'm going to try and reach out to the community for some help.
First off, I play support a lot. A LOT. Over the past month, I've probably been support more than 75% of the time. If it's over 90...I would not be surprised. I do enjoy most of the games, but I'm starting to hate the people I find. I know I'm not even into the Bronze Tier yet (halfway as of this posting), but I notice most of the teams I end up on are heavy on ADC. I've been playing AI to try and take a break from having to constantly follow "Ye Olde Support" cycle (Ward, Heal, Repeat), but I know that PvP was more fun.
This leads into the second issue: I can't tell where games go wrong. If anyone knows a way to record/show results from the game, please tell me. Recent games seem to just feel like the enemy team is way more focused and have better mechanical skills. I know how to last hit (something my friend Grimol is improving on) but can't use that because I'm always the support. It feels like most of the people I get partnered with are kill hungry. I've seen players chase under turrets at less than 100 HP; attempt 2v1 fights; and almost ignore me. Most of the players don't seem to understand that even supports have cooldowns. Don't yell asking why I didn't heal you if I healed you five seconds before you turret dived both Tarric and Lux.
So here's my question: how can I get better? I hear about watching streams and videos, but I always get recommended to streamers who focus on damage roles. If anyone knows good videos, guides, or even have a stream of your own that could help, post it in the comments. I promise to take any advice or criticism to heart and try improving myself.
In the meantime, morning classes deem this a good time to nod off. Night everyone, have good games!

There is no magic wand to get better, just improve your mechanics and learn the game.
Yet you find every single kill-hungry-sir-bossy-tight-**** adc that thinks that if he dies, its totally and without a chance to argue your fault.
By experience i have learned to read my adc and figure if he's aggresive or more cold headed; and if i feel that he needs to change his posture, i let him know.
"Taking bubble first also I play really passively so please don't dive right away"
focus on warding and let your ADC know you play passively, also what supports do you play?
