If you hit 100 LP and promotions, you should reset the MMR for that division

It's basically impossible for me to climb up if I'm always risking a demotion and getting sent down to 0 LP repeatedly.

Your rank doesn't matter. You can have an MMR of 1500 and be in Gold 5, or you can have an MMR of 1500 and be in Silver 2, or you can have an MMR of 1500 and be in Gold 3.

Rank is literally irrelevant.

Except for end of season rewards.

Which btw is fucking stupid. They should choose one or the other and leave it at that. Either have mmr be the deciding factor and have rank simply reflect mmr brackets. (my personal opinion on what would be better) Or have the ladder bracket be the only thing that matters and remove mmr completely. The fact that you get matched with people of your MMR while your in a bracket lower then that (or higher) is fucking dumb.

Which is annoying, because I went through 3 consectuative promos to Diamond, which already threw my mmr for that division of D5 into the gutter. So when I got back to grinding, I went nowhere because I ended up getting paired with the same type of people that made me lose my previous two series to d5. Now im sitting at p1 0 LP because I was in limbo between 0 LP d5 and demotion for so long that my mmr got even worse than the average in p1 despite being in d5 (heck, got close to d4 twice by sheer lucky winstreaks). The system hopefully gets worked on for the better this preseason, or they are just going to get massive shit for failing the community.
