Just played a couple ranked games and i lost 35 LP and 25 LP.this isnt fair,i only gain like 12-15 lp and i'v been on a 3 game win streak where i just lost all of it because of one game .sometimes i have afk, trolls or the enemy just has a better team. Its not fair to lose 35 LP. There's no way to climb the ladder when 1 game can make you lose up to 35 LP.PLSRITOSPAREME EDIT:Im diamond btw

From another thread:

Low Diamond is a mess atm. They're letting the top ~2% of the playerbase hit Diamond when only ~0.6% has a high enough MMR to actually climb. So you end up with ~75% of the Diamond population stuck in Division V with negative LP gains.

We're talking about Diamond V to Diamond IV being the equivalent of Gold I to Diamond V. That's how huge the gap is. So the solution is:

Anyone who is in the top ~2% of the population can get promoted to Diamond, but only players above X MMR can progress beyond that.
Only players above X MMR can get promoted to Diamond V. Plat I players get hard clamped until they reach that point.
Anyone can climb through Diamond. Hard clamping happens at high Diamond I.

#1 is the current implementation. #2 is the Season 3 implementation. #3 is how it worked S4 pre-Master tier.
