Placement games??

So last season I went into Ranked games as soon as I hit level 30, not knowing just how much of a change it was between Ranked and Normal games and I placed in Bronze III, which was pretty surprising to me! (thought I would end up Bronze V..

So knowing this new season was coming up I put on my tryhard pants and kept at playing League to better myself in Ranked queues by becoming more familiar with the game and some new champions!

This Season I went 8-2 in my Placement matches and still somehow ended up in Bronze IV.. Which to me, makes no sense. I know that Rito said that this season's placement would be heavily based off of where you ended last season and I can understand that but when I played my placement matches and went 8-2 and had an 8 win-streak I think I should place a little higher than Bronze IV.. I know this is a little naggy and I fully intend to try and climb out of Bronze, but I don't think that your placement last season should impact you that harshly.

TL;DR: Where did you place last season and where did you place now, do you think you were fairly placed?

I was Gold 5, went 5-5 in placements, and placed silver 3. It seems fair to me, and I think it's more heavily based on MMR than previous rank. But that's good. Everyone is lower than before, so you have to fight to get back, and meanwhile, all the boosters got punished hard. Win-win.
