One thing that i can't stress enough is creating a positive team attitude.

Your chances to win will drastically decrease if champ select starts with people raging and flaming. Dont rage at teammates, ofcourse there will be quite a lot who will fail and there are enough d*ckheads to go around, but if you have a friendly team who calls out "well done!" and "Gj top lane!" the teamplay will be way better.

In short: Don't rage/flame at teammates, try to call out timers whenever possible (dragon: 6 mins, blue/red 5 mins, baron 7mins) and create a positive enviroment for you team.

Don't hesitate to give feedback, but make it constructive feedback. So if someone does something wrong shortly explain what he did wrong and above all, tell him how to improve or change. There will be players who won't want to listen to anything you say, but giving good (short) feedback goes a long way, just refrain from stating obvious things ^^

Good luck everyone!

Personal note: Im currently at 1640 but rising pretty quickly, but I have to say I got out of elo hell really quickly since i won my first few games (I think it was 7 wins 2 losses).
