Flex Que is utter trash (still)

So Riot decided to "fix" flex que, well after they did that, they decided "hm.. let's make them play one game to determine their placements." why not just reset the placements and make us play the 10 matches again?? How can one match determine whether or not (using as an example) you get Silver 3 or Bronze 4. They should have just made us play our 10 matches over, since before half of our placements were HIGHLY mismatched. How is this even fair?? Make us play our 10 placement matches fairly instead of just giving us one match that decides our fate.

Because of the MMR mismatch in Flex Queue, you got reset to the original starting point (pre placements). But remember this is only Preseason, the rank you accomplish now WILL BE RESET AGAIN! The rank you get in preseason does only influnece the placement in Season 7 to a SMALL extend! (only your starting point in season 7 is affected by Preseason ranks) Sidenote: 1-2 Tier drops are completely normal in preseason.

I.E.: You were Plat 5 at the end of the season, were placed high Silver after placements, now got placed low Silver. If you now climb to Plat again, you will then only be placed in low Gold at the start of Season 7!

So dont worry to much about the current placement!

They made the decision to not make you play your 10 placement matches again, but to just put you at your original starting point! This one "extra" placement game, only triggers the visual update! You were already reset at that point!
