Delete Promos in Ranked

How about we just remove promo games, and just have LP as the sole indicator of someone's position on the ladder?

I think the community knows by now the ranked system is rigged for a 50% winrate. In the long run, thats what it ends up as. 50% winrate across the board. But guess what? Your promos are stacked. Heavily. And LP has no meaning if you can't win those specific games. And these games are fuckking hard to win!

So why have Promos??? Just have LP as a number. No longer do we have to deal with the stress and the frustration of playing Promos (and I'm not talking about the pressure to perform well. We are talking dealing with int/tilt from your team, and smurfs on their team. Happens in 80% of promos). Maybe give less LP each win, but if you hit say 3000 you're gold 4. Hit 4000 you're plat.

You end up getting in a spot where you belong after enough games, the fluctuation isn't big enough to shift you too much. Right now, it feels like Promos are a punishment. We get punished with bad teammates whenever we win enough to get into promos. The only way to break the vicious cycle and actually move up is either suddenly improve massively on your game. Even though you've been gold 1 for 3 months you suddenly start playin like Plat 1. Then you can move up. Or, most likely someone on the other side picks a champ they don't know. Gets tilted by something. AFKs. Then you move up.

Most of the reasons people move up I feel has more to do with their luck than their skill.

Please tell me if this is true for people on this here board, cuz I feel like Ranked Promos are set up in that way.
