I can't keep up with the game and it is so frustrating

Basically the title. I started playing end of last season and i had a ton of fun even if i kept getting absolutely destroyed. But currently it turned to be just plain frustrating.

I am playing with a friend who just started with the game as well and we both queue ranked together. This way we made it all the way up to expert 2. But it had reached a point for me ever since i left pro rank that i feel i simply cannot keep up with anyone in the lobby any longer. I am aware that i am simply too bad at the game for the rank i am sitting at, knocking down others or sometimes even surviving early game is sometimes close to impossible for me.

Meanwhile my buddy is having a blast, earning points and kills left and right and i'm conviced he will hit Ace in a week or two.

I don't know how i am supposed to improve if i keep getting destroyed by the same characters, how i can get better at the game if i can't even get a chance to get started some rounds. I drag my team down and sometimes get flamed for it harshly in chat and honestly i can't even blame them for it. Unranked feels just as terrible in terms of matchmaking for me.

So yeah i'm at a bit of a loss here. Kinda feels bad that people like me are able to rank up that "easily" just to get stuck in an elo that i simply don't belong in. And it makes me honestly sad because i had a absolute blast the first weeks when i started.
