Ranked anxiety and trying to climb.
Post Body

My goal for this season has been to hit Gold. I was placed in Bronze in Season 3. I subsequently carried myself all the way up to Silver 1. At one point last week I was Silver 1 with ~35 LP. I'm now SIlver 2 with 15 LP and I'm on an 8-game losing streak. I mute my teammates (edit: when they're toxic, of course) and regularly win lane (as adc) but I notice that what has lost these last few lanes has been poor objective control. I can't seem to get my team to go after objectives. We'll win a big teamfight, trade 4 for 1 or something, and then go back and farm. At one point my team picked up a 19-minute mid inhibitor; we lost after 40 minutes and never once entered their base again.

I know I can play above my rank. I know I'm better than Silver. My LP gains before this losing streak were much bigger than my losses. But now I'm losing 20 LP a game because my teams seem to think objectives are worth less than single kills. How do I get my teams to go after free/easy objectives so I can start winning games again? Should I just start spamming jungle to give myself a bit more credibility when calling things?

With the deadline coming soon I just don't think I'll be hitting Gold. That's incredibly frustrating, since 1) I've spent all season improving and hitting Silver 1 and 2) I know I'm better than Silver.
