First of all, we all know that it's very hard to carry and scale ELO only as Support. And that's actyally my challenge.

As you know, I main thresh, but even though you might be good at some champions, when supporting you really need something else. That's called the Lead. You need to be able to bring your team to victory, making the right decisions at the right time. And that's why it's really hard to carry the game supporting. Some teams just don't listen to you, or they just lone wolf the entire game. You might get tilted sometimes because even you try your best, your team is not listening you.
And i'm not talking about the average teams that you get at your league when ranking, I mean those teammates that we get sometimes, that they don't follow your calls, or you need to repeat them every concept thousands of times, or even teach them how to play. Those teammates that despite you tell them what to do they won't rly adapt to the game. You know, SoloQ is more common called YoloQ. And that's why the vast majority of League players believe that climbing the ladder only as support is tougher and harder than any other lane. Honestly, they're right, but that doesn't mean you can't.
The best roles to carry on SoloQ from 1 to 5:
1: Jungle - Dominate the entire map, and win your lanes.
2: Mid - Dominate your lane and roam for others.
3: ADC (2k17 lul) - Get farm, and fed until mid/late, then DESTROY
4: Top - Tank the entire team, and/or win teamfights
5: Support xD - Take the Lead. (The hardest on SoloQ)
That video is made to show you that despite your teammates aren't the best, when supporting, and if you're smart enough, you can carry your team and win games. We have a 25% chance of having 2 feeding lanes, which is really annoying when winning your lane. But everything that happens in-game, it's in some way your fault. If your ADC is 6/0 thanks to you, you're crushing botlane, but their mid is 10/0, it's YOUR fault that you couldn't carry enough. If you have this mindset you're gonna be fine. And you're gonna stop flaming your teammates despite they might not be good.
You might have reason, but if you blame them, they're gonna play even WORSE. So if you start to blame a feeding lane, then you're mostly gonna lose the game, if you don't carry hard for him. That's why as Support you NEED, MUST apply the DST Theory. I really apply it, and it's gone really well for me. (Atm i got a 5 victory spree on ranks ;D)
I'm gonna link a vid where i explain how it works, and i really encourage you, support, to apply it to your games. ;D
