I was Diamond 4 0 lp inm support and I wanted to climb to diamond in other roles. I logged on today to notice I was demoted from diamond 4 on support to plat 1 75 lp without ever actually losing a support game and being demoted? Also I only played 3 total games as a diamond 4 support lol.... (And yes I know about elo decay. I was promoted less than 4 days ago).

When's the last time you played? After a certain amount of time your lp will begin to "decay." That's likely what happened unless you played a lot recently and all.

I believe that you can get demoted from "splashing" LP from others roles. So if you like lose a game on a role that wasnt D4 then its possible that you demoted to P1 on your main rule due to the LP splash loss from the role you did lose on... if that makes sense

Most likely due to splashing. Splashing makes it so that if you win/lose a game, you will also gain/lose some LP in your other roles.

If you’ve played a lot of games and you’ve lost many of them in the time you switched roles, that’s most likely why you demoted.

Cheers!
