If I need 1 more LP to be in a series, could I just buy it with a lot of IP?

If you have 99 LP, can we but that last LP for say 3150 IP or some shit.

Umm... no.

The system placed you at 99LP because your mmr is too low to get bumped into promos. That same system stops people from directly dropping when they hit 0LP.

I'm sure no one wants to remove the second one, so the first one must also remain for fairness.

thats stupid. I had multiple times when I was consistently earning 21-20 LP and then for some reason the last match gives me 18-19 to screw me over.

Umm you might wanna look into the system the amount of LP gained depends on, your LP, enemy team LP, and your recent 20 rank games winrate . It won't out to you deliberately at 99 to be annoying. As for demoted that's a different system you can't actually be demoted until your hidden MMR thinks your playing 5 tiers below over your last 20 games so if your gold 5 and have been playing like a silver 5 your get demoted to silver 1. As for how your mrr effects ur LP it will just effect the amount gained/lost it won't be like "we where gonna give him 17...but that put him in promo...let's be a dick and make it 16"

I'm saying the two systems work hand in hand. If only one was there then everyone would get bumped up. I'm not referring to demotion between tiers, I'm referring to demotion between divisions. I should have made that clear and I apologize^^"

Yes, I'm literally saying it'll use the stuff you listed to place you into a game where you'll gain 16 if you win just to be annoying because your mmr is too low.
