Demotions should work the same way as promotions
Title, If you hit 0 lp you should be presented 3 games, lose 2 and your down, win 2 and you stay. And similar to Division demotions, 0lp you have 5 games, lose 3 and your out, win 3 and your still in.

Right now you have demote protection for the first few games you play after you promote.
Having this would mean losing that protection. So if you promote and lose one game you enter in ''demote promos'' , there you have to win 2/3 and you're back at 0LP where you HAVE TO win if you don't want ''demote promos'' again
I'd say that would be kinda annoying
You're
Maybe even adjust LP gains, but after promotion/demotion, setting LP to 50 makes sense if this goes through.
Right now demotion sets LP at 100 and promotion sets LP at 0 (with some safety net for a few losses). If we're adding more safety net (which is better than the current iteration in terms of clarity), some safety net should be removed elsewhere.
The whole promotion system is flawed in the first place IMO. Even though yes you are the one constant in your games, there is also so much randomness in this game in terms of who you will be playing with or against, that it's pretty unfair to judge 3 or 5 games differently than the rest of your games. You should get promoted when you have say 150 LP in the division or something (if divisions are to stay).
You have to have abysmally bad MMR to get demoted after one loss at 0 LP
I think this is not needed as it is really rare to drop after the first loss and if you do it means your mmr was already pretty low and thus even if you do not get demoted you get really few lp so I'd rather get demoted and keep getting 20lp than keeping my rank and win 15 lp per won game while i am losing 24.
What do you GAIN from winning a "demotion series"?
Also, people CAN farm MMR with this method.
Demotions should work the same way as promotions
lmao with this BS system u would have higher chance to demote. And it would tilt more people.
Tbh I'd prefer if we had neither promotional or demotional games...
Can we just go back to elo?
this this this this... I am so sick of bouncing G5-G4 every week.
So I'm on 0 lp win 2 games and I'm still on 0 lp? No thanks.
I like this idea because it provides more clarity on when you will get demoted. As it is now when you're at 0 lp you are left wondering "Is my MMR high enough that if I lose this game I get demoted?" Sometimes it takes 2-3 games for the dreaded demotion notification. Sometimes it takes one.
Don't fuck with the ekkosystem. D:<
If u win the demotion series you don't get demoted but start with a free loss in order to make it easier To demote if you keep hitting 0 lp
