Does your mmr decay if you don't play for a while?I know that you lose LP for not playing a month..But, does your mmr decay if you don't play for 2 weeks or something like that? anybody knows?

MMR does not decay. If you drop down many divisions due to LP decay, you'll actually have better LP gains which will help you get back up there (though that's not to say you can't ruin your MMR trying to get back up).

A Challenger could decay to Gold 1, but it will be nearly impossible for him to stay that low whether he wants to or not.

Nobody but Riot has your real MMR, so take it with a grain of salt.

It doesn't. Not at all. Definitely not in ranked. Your LP might decay but your MMR and matchmaking stays unchanged. You'll win favorable LP back if you become active again. Maybe the MMR is slightly easier because the ladder inflates a little as the season ages.

In normals? Pretty sure it doesn't either. Not in any normal span of time.
