If you played ranked last game, they'll use your last season's MMR to place you against similar opponents then they'll adjust a little depending on your win/loss result. If you never played ranked, you'll start rated at 1200 and then they'll adjust from there, even if you win or lose all your matches you won't be placed insanely far from where you currently stand. Also, people going 5-5 will usually see a small drop in their ranking. I was Gold IV, won 5-5 and I dropped to Silver II. If you are really worth more that where they placed you, it shouldn't be very lon for you to climb the ladders.

You're full of shit. Normal MMR and ranked MMR have nothing to do with each other. Your starting rating is 1200 if you're playing ranked for the first time. If you get placed in a bad rating after doing well on your placements that means that your MMR from last season is pretty crappy.

Ha I'm probably wrong indeed, I might've mixed normal games MMR with last season's ranked MMR. I don't know why you get upset so fast, you could've just told me I was wrong and correct what I said, no need to tell me I'm full of shit when I was just trying to be useful and help the guy understand why he was put Bronze II.

Best be is to make a new account and just play better. It's quicker than climbing through bronze and silver imo. My friend who is REALLY REALLY bad decided to play his ranked games after getting over (nonsensical) anxiety got Gold 5. System isn't really that good.

Your wins and losses don't matter persay. It is your MMR. I was 6 losses and 4 wins, I got into gold 3.

It matters what your ranking was last season and if a person is unranked, even if they win all 10 the highest you can be placed is Silver 1 depending on their skill level.

If it is your fist time playing unranked, I don't know. I remember being thrown into silver 1, but that was some time ago.

If you are better than bronze 2, then you'll get out.

Well, a 8-2 will place you into where you were last season. What was your rank/division last season?

Otherwise, it's because your mmr is glorious. If you are good, then you should easily get out of bronze.

I went 8-2 in placements and went from Gold IV to Gold II - and that was off the back of an ~8 loss streak in preseason. Either you were low bronze last season, or you versed low MMR players in your placement games.
