So I was on a winning streak, got to bronze 1 , gg I'm not that great, and I win 3 or so more games in a row to get me @ ~29 lp so thats approx 10 lp per win. Then I lose 1 game and get shot down to 3 lp, 26 lp in one loss, what the hell? Idk about you but if you want to get promoted you have to have a win to loss ratio of 3:1 which is pretty god damn high. Was this a glitch or maybe something else, anybody know? Thanks

It's called Clamping.

When it gets this late in the season, the game starts assuming that people who have not yet hit their potential won't, and as such make it substantially more difficult to climb.
