they simply shouldn't exist in the first place.

they're just trying to coddle you by making it more difficult/rigid for players to keep what rank they've earned so its an "accomplishment" - (just google video game psychology, going up 1 division creates a huge lasting reward for your brain)

because watching a number between 1-3000 go up or down after every match is boring.

they prevent "feels bad man" experiences when you go from silver 4 down to bronze 3 too quickly. it makes you feel like trash.... even if its justified through your play.

its ok to climb up or fall down 3 divisions overnight. without having to play 100 games to do it.

Until they remake the system the least they can do is ensure that it's as painless as possible. Yes the series/promos thing is nonsense but it's what we have right now I appreciate that they want to make it at painless as possible to get to gold

Bronze/Silver/Gold/Plat/Diamond Divisions shouldn't exist either.

They perpetuate player bias and elitism in game and these fanciful colors are used as a measure to distract us from the glaring flaw that we are unable to see our actual MMR or elo score.

It's like some twisted school experiment. If you're a circle, you feel great! If you're a square, you need to get them star stickers placed by your name in order to become a circle someday. And teacher reserves the right to take away your stickers.
