So if I win a game in ranked I get +18 LP. If I lose a game in ranked I get -19 LP...

So wait, how am I even supposed to climb if I get subtracted so much compared to how much I earn. By the time I get into a three game win streak, i'm going to lose most of my LP with one loss. I don't really understand ranked this year so someone could help explain to me how this works? Also I know that sometimes it subtracts less than 19 LP, but I have had that rarely been the case, even when I lose and do really good, it still subtracts 19 LP away from me.

if i win i get +25, if i lose i get -14, i have a 65% win rate. system seems to be working as intended idk why youre complaining. If you belong in a higher elo riot will facilitate that with the lp gains, if they believe u belong ina lower elo they will facilitate that as well. If you have just a 52% win rate, play enough games and youll climb. I'm sorry friend bu there is nothing wrong with the system

best stop ranked now before it gets worse. stay here at the bottom of the mountain where there are less thing to worry about.

You need to win more to raise your MMR. Right now your MMR is lower than the rank you are in, causing you to gain less LP and lose more since the system thinks you should be lower rated. Just keep playing and it'll eventually stabilize.

You lose more than you gain because your rank is probably higher than your current mmr, so it thinks you should be doing better than you are, which is bullshit since riot auto forces you to have a 50% wr anyway, only way to fix it is to make your mmr higher than your elo so you get placed against higher ranked player, which can only be done by winning a bunch, which you can't do, because matchmaking is really stupid, honestly, why can't riot just show us our mmr, like seriously why not, how does it hurt them in the slightest. this company does so many things that make no sense, like whats the context behind not letting us see our mmr, I actually want to know now.
