Ok this season I went 8-2 in my placements and was expecting to at least get middle silver..... Riot shat on that and gave me bronze 1 after I literally carried every game that I won and almost won both games I lost. My KDA was through the roof. I don't understand this terrible waste of time since these games r suppose to mean so much. Riot should just get rid of placements if they r going to do this.

You got Bronze 1 because your MMR wasnt that high and you were silver 5 last season. Complaining wont get you anywhere in this game. You have been placed in a ladder now work hard to get above where you were last season and also being able to carry a game in this current meta doesnt really apply. This meta is about teams working together to win games. IF this was back in season 3 then you could easily solo carry a game but thats not how it works anymore. anyways just continue to be positive and work hard towards a higher goal. I understand the frustration but if you work through it then youll come out higher than last season. Good luck.

Continue winning 80% of your games and you will be out of Bronze in no time. The season just started, you have plenty of time to carry your way to the rank you deserve.

The game is constantly changing, Players can be a Bronze material player one patch and a Gold Player in another patch. Don't expect to be the same rank every season just because you ended S5 as X rank. The game is always changing that means the player must adapt to these changes. Some players adapt to change better than others, that is why they are ranked higher. The point of the MMR Reset is to display how a player has adapted to these changes, which means the rank you're placed at isn't so significant. 10 Game is statistically not a large enough sample size to draw any conclusions, so stop worrying about your Rank and continue playing more games.
