I have been promoted and demoted from plat 1 to plat 2 at least 10 times in the past month.

I deserve to be in plat 1. If I am constantly getting into my plat 1 promos and constantly being promoted to plat 1 I should not have to consistently be demoted just because i lose one game at 0 lp. The skill gap is not that big.

It's bullshit that i have to deal with this. And what's with the harsh 25 LP loss every single time you get demoted? That's two fucking games I need to win to get back into my promos. I'm so god damn tired of doing this shit over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over.

edit: back in plat 1. won two games, lost two games. one more loss and I get demoted again. lovely

People's skill and consistency aren't confined to the arbitrary rankings. If you could be locked into a ranking it devalues the rank. Hence why any tier 5 is considered to be bad because it's so hard to drop.

This is me between plat 4-5. I honestly have never had more difficulty in my near 4 years of league climbing than the cess pool of low plat. Jesus christ its terrible.. granted i feel that this is the rank placement i deserve to be at but being low plat its so clear when some people got boosted up here or the annoyance of having a game of 6-8 plat players and then the random two low golds.. What in the world is this?

Well you better get used to it. Your probably around that elo where all the boosted D5 players

You only need to win one game to promote, not two. And you're demotion protected for 3 games after promoting, so you'd have to win 1 to get through series and then lose 4 to demote back to P2 75 LP.

Or, maybe you've plateaued and are right where you belong and will continue to bounce around the plat 1/2 level until you get better?
