You can't judge the ELO in 8 games. The ELO system represents your strength in a team, which means your ability to overcome the fact that you have bad players in your team by winning so hard you still win.

If you play hundreds of games, you should find your right ELO, cause you should own a game where people are 900 ELO if you deserves more. Especially as a jungler, solo mid or solo top.

Beeing a good player is not only based on how strong you win your lane, it's also your ability to lead less skilled players to victory. For example, as a jungler, you should leave the kills to the laners, as the fact that they get fed is more influencial, and they could win there lane more easily.

It also means telleing your team when to go for drake or baron, organising the pushes, setting up traps, asking for some wards and buying some yourself ... because as the teams are pretty even in skill, if you make your teammates better, you make your team performing above its current rank. And so, you win in most of the case.
