Can you be demoted from gold 5 back to silver 1?

Because holy shit gold 5 is terrible. In silver I won most if not every single match I had rarely a loss. But now I was able to get to 72 lp in gold 5 and tanked it all down with straight loss's. Lost 5 games in a row at 0 lp and haven't de ranked. So can you de rank?

I remember one season they made it that you can de rank. But someone in game just now said you cant de rank from gold back to silver. Is this true?

You can be demoted if your elo falls hard enough. You just can't decay anymore.

How hard is hard? like 1k 500 300? I think right now I am at 1450 maybe less due to all the loss's. I was at like 1600 I think.

EDIT I am at 1501 actually says lolking. So I am still technicly in gold elo bracket.

to go from Gold to silver, you would have to hit Silver 5 elo.

Ah, Well that's sort of assuring. Well hopefully I can start winning games again and keep my elo in the 1500+'s like I have been. But its so freaking hard in gold with the teams I get.

I main support so its a bit hard to climb in this elo as that. But hopefully I can get some decent team mates and I can start climbing again.

Thanks for the quick replys.

You can be demoted to S1. This happens normally with an excessive amount of losses at 0 LP.

Back in S4 I hit D5 briefly which I was super proud of, got demoted eventually back to plat because I didn't belong in diamond. Was glad to have made it that high at all.
