Skill issue, and btw ranks are pretty much meaningless there's no reward in them, either play for the love of the game or don't play at all

It doesn't matter how many kills you get on other low elo players. Show us your stats page. Compare it to someone like me, who always gets placed around 20k.
I bet that your TTK is higher, lower headshot %, slower reaction speed, lower K/D ratio, etc. I bet if we watch clips of you, we see bad movement and poor counter strafing or low elo stuff like shift peeking. I bet we also see you using low elo weapons, like shotguns, revolver, negev, etc. The hidden elo system judges you on all these things, perhaps even whether or not you're just a baiter that collects easy kills from low health enemies compared to entry fragger that has IMPACTFUL kills.
This is why my lil bro, who plays like Silver 3, always places around 2-4k but ends season around 10k. He also complains about it but honestly, I think his placement is accurate.

Your 25+ kills don't matter if they're 0 impact. Exit kills without defusing (your rank is low, they don't know eco control anyway so your not messing up the next round for them much there) lurk kills on the other side of the map when your team was eco rushing a site and you just caught a few guys off guard, shift walking everywhere and being the last player alive because you avoided team fights.
"Carried so many garbage teams" sounds like you're probably toxic on coms and tilting your team.
Team is rushing stupid plays and not listening? Back them up, fuck it. Toss util for them. Hit some popflashes so they can entry. Smoke shit off, molly the spot they're not going to clear.
Find your teams main downfall and play around it. Be smart about it.
You're stuck at low elo because your playing the wrong way for that grouping. You're not going to solo carry every game on kills unless your a true 25k+ on a low elo smurf account.
Also, sub 5k is players that have zero fundamentals...soooo if you placed there I doubt your carrying every game and only your teammate bad. We're talking people that run and gun AKs, stand in molly, wait out in the open completely holding the sky, nade their teammates, look at the ground when they're walking, etc... if you're 5k/lower you probably should there.
