if u want to be a bit competitive in hon u need to play in a team of 2-3 at least, imo
solo queue and fun games just play 1500, the higher the games are more shit u gotta pay attention to
-counterpicking (some1 goes mk-i get salf, some1 goes dev-pred, etc..)
-less chance of owning noobs and playing more passive games
-as blood said be prepared for them to pick smarter and combos and such for lanes
-warding is important and although most will get a ward here and there if there is a good support around it will make a difference (with cw and warding proper)
-more attention to minimap, general awareness of who is doing what, harder ganks, dives and be prepared for tps and counterganks

if i had people to play with i wouldnt mind higher brackets, solo mode is meh
every1 thinks they are a lot better than their lower mmr people and like to claim mid and etc...

Stats are just ridiculous in HoN. I had some guy claiming he was much better than anyone guy because he had 1.51:1 KD ratio instead of the other guy's 1.3:1 or something. They both had 51% winrate and were playing 1600s.

Most people just don't understand that they're ass at this game. They watch a few pros play, learn a few heroes and item builds, play a few hundred games, and then think they're good and deserve to be in higher brackets. Overall, that's just not true. It's not even about how much time you spend on the game, it's about your attitude and how you apply yourself ingame. So many people have 2000+ games and still suck. The first step to getting better is to stop thinking you are "cursed" or that you only get noob teams. Stop thinking you're playing amazing and others are the reason for your failure. If you're not 1800+, you simply aren't good at the game. Even then, lots of 1800+ players are bad. Start looking at your own mistakes instead of having some huge ego despite being a 1500 player. Some games you will lose because you have a complete troll, a leaver, or just totally out drafted. But MOST of your losses are in some way your fault. If you played better, most of those losses wouldn't happen. Watch the replay and see what shit you do wrong, you'll be amazed how many mistakes you make.

I make progress winning games and I cognitively recognize mistakes I make and how to fix them. It just seems like a grind that takes a really long time. Ill win a game I played well then ill lose two trolls games or whatever and it just really gets to me when there's nothing I can do about it. I don't think I'm perfect or amazing but I know I at least have a winning attitude and I don't act like a child throwing tantrums like so many allies of mine do. It just gets tiring feeling like any progress I make through hard effort and patience can be wiped by a streak of dcs and whiners

No offense, but I find it pretty hard to believe that you don't have a condescending or "put-offish" attitude towards your teammates. You clearly have the mindset that you are far superior to them, and I'm sure many of them feel the same way about playing with you. Not to mention when we 1v1'd you were far from sportsmanlike afterwards. Unless you're a vastly better player then yes, solo queueing is going to be rough. As all of us have said numerous times over your last few threads, make some friends and go from there.

Just because I think I'm good doesn't mean I project it on my allies in such a way that ruins the game. People call mid and bot, I dont fight it. People feed or fuck up I don't rage. I keep that to myself because if I don't its just more likely that I'll lose due to arguing or griefing.
