Questions About Ranked Queues and MMR

Wolfram Oxford··2 votes·263 views

So I am not new to the game but I am confused on some aspects of ranked gameplay. The first thing I would like to know is, does your mmr reset with each new season? So lets say I have bad mmr now and gain 16 lp, next season will I start gaining the average of 20, or will I be stuck with the same 16 lp gains? The last thing I would like to know is how placements work. I know the more games you win the more likely you are to get a higher rank, but how do they use your last season's mmr, and how does your mmr change throughout placements?

Pretty sure they use ur mmr as a guideline for match ups. Generally speaking, majority of players are placed lower than they finished the previous season. As far as LP gains, you should be back to normal gains. The reason ur not getting a lot right now, is because the system thinks ur skill lvl is too low for the division u are in and is trying to kick u down. The best way to counter this is by going on a winning streak and then keeping ur win loss around 50% (pref slightly higher)
