I got put bronze 5 for flex que so my buddy and i grinded up to bronze 2 in a couple nights. So i log in today and i get another placement game so i was like alright whatever if anything ill get bronze 3. So we get into the game and we get a troll mid laner. Turns out we lost big shocker and i get placed bronze 4. I would like to know who's stupid idea was it to put me in bronze 5 in the first place when i go 10/0 every game. So i grind my way up to be brought back down to pretty much where i started?

Riot doesn't care. Sucks for people like you and me, but they don't.

Because of the MMR mismatch in Flex Queue, you got reset to the original starting point (pre placements). But remember this is only Preseason, the rank you accomplish now WILL BE RESET AGAIN! The rank you get in preseason does only influnece the placement in Season 7 to a SMALL extend! (only your starting point in season 7 is affected by Preseason ranks) Sidenote: 1-2 Tier drops are completely normal in preseason.

I.E.: You were Plat 5 at the end of the season, were placed high Silver after placements, now got placed low Silver. If you now climb to Plat again, you will then only be placed in low Gold at the start of Season 7!

So dont worry to much about the current placement!
