About the Placement Algorithm

No this is not a poor me story about how I was nearly in Gold and got demoted to Bronze 2 thanks to 2 afk games...with a 5-6 record. Maybe in a way :p. But I have talked to countless people who have actually been placed in bronze after being in gold and higher. Is the placement algorithm just completely broken this year or what?

this is every year, i understand low elo players dont get it but it is simple. challenger, master, and high diamonds are always placed in plat at the start. Meaning plat is placed in gold, gold in silver, silver lower etc.. if you are in the lower bracket then you can get placed even lower if you do bad.
