What's the point of LP?
Honest question and if you have a troll idea, don't bother answering.
So League matches people based on MMR, your real rank is based on MMR, and the difficult of the game is no surprise based on fucking MMR. Why on earth does League even have an LP system which throws people in a division which shouldn't matter whatsoever?
What's the point of LP when you can be a silver with platinum MMR, or a challenger with the MMR of a gold?
