@Riot, can you please address the fact that people are climbing with <50% win rates?

This shit actually makes me miss LP throttling. Really sick of people shit-talking me in normal games for being a few divisions higher than me (note: I do placements + ~20 games to get to Gold for end of season rewards) only to look at their Ranked stats after the game to discover that they're Plat V with >1000 games played and a <50% win rate. Back in the day you'd start getting throttled at like ~50% win rate.

Really miss that they (Riot) caved a couple of seasons ago and let people climb based off quantity over quality.

that only happen if they have a higher MMR than their current rank, which is intended and normal. What's the issue there?

That's really not the case though. That was the case originally, but enough people complained about LP throttling that Riot basically gave ranked a max loss, min gain for LP.
