Um, was your MMR inflated by a large amount of Duo Queue games? The MMR soft reset should not do that much.

I'm not THAT mad, just a lil annoyed.. I wouldve been fine with G5/4 lol Just seeing Silver irks me

I ended season 4 as Silver 2 and was placed into Silver 1 for season 5. I watched a lot of the posts about this last time and the average drop was 2-3 divisions. The only plats that should've been put into Silver had horrible MMR.

or they lost promos badly. It happens. I had an intent feeding diamond zed in what should've been plat 2 elo promos.

I believe the placement matches count for a normal amount of MMR (if you've ranked before), and 10 matches doesn't drop you a whole tier (or rather, 2-3 more divisions than the average reset).

Last year I was placed in Gold 3 from Gold 5 the previous season.... 7-3 promos.. Shits wonky

Dreadlocks1 votes

Nah, if you look at the graph, from Oct 19th or w.e to Nov 2nd Legit all solo Q games, then i failed my promos on the last day and dropped to 5LP in Gold 1, didnt play at all during the pre-season except on accident like 3x at the end. So no.. lol My games were generally between 1675-1850 MMR

Ok, cuz I know the sites can't get an accurate reading on your own MMR if you play too many Duos. Without that, idk why it would appear to drop so much.

Dreadlocks1 votes

Yeah i generally climbed quicker solo Q last year. I'd just listen to some music on low volume and dial in with focus. With friends, conversations can easily break my focus.. nerd tactics ;D

Nah, that's about right for a 5-5 showing. Bout the same as its always worked.

Huh... I just replied in another thread, but this is causing me to have an alternative point of view.... maybe this is the season that I try to get as bad a rank as possible.

If someone AFKs, I'm going full ham.

If someone rages, I'm going full ham.

If someone does anything I don't like, I'm going full ham.
