Seems like it's hard to improve when you're in low elo

Somehow my alt account dropped from Plat 4 to Silver 4, and looking at the players in this range, it really doesn't seem easy to improve.

Just looking at mechanics, it's incredibly diverse — from players who are genuinely terrible to players who are way better than the ones I saw in Diamond 4. Purely on mechanics, there are a few who could even be smurfing, but the problem is their combat sense is severely lacking.

I'm not talking about 1v1s. When things get more complex, maybe because they lack high-level experience, they seem unable to pay attention to other aspects.

For example, in a 5v5 fight where the enemy is already taking dragon, they don't even know that the way you approach and engage differs depending on which dragon it is... In a disadvantageous situation where we're the ones taking it, things like finding an escape angle, a narrow counter-angle, or blocking vision to create an advantage... they just all-in regardless of whether it's disadvantageous or not. Even players with some game sense have to adapt to that, and as they adapt, that becomes the only correct play. So if you just keep headbutting in, it's almost impossible to improve.
