I average around ~+20 LP gain per game. Suddenly when im at 68 LP, i get +15 for my first game, and then +16 for my next game, just so that i get the nice total of 99 LP.
Why? This has happened to me allot. I can never seem to get to promos right away, I ALWAYS need to have a game first where im sitting at 95-99 LP. Im a bit salty, but the reason I post this here is bc I am genuinly interested into why this happens. Any thoughts?
DuskDaUmbreon3 votesThat...seems really weird.
The only way that you'd get under 20, normally, is if your MMR is lower than your rank. It can also fluctuate if you're against a team with a lower average MMR than yours.
If that's actually consistently fluctuating like that, that'd be...strange.
TwistingSwords1 votesI thought about that too, but in those +15 and +16 games the enemy team has (on average) a higher tier than my team (or just higher than me in general). The tiers are not exactly the same as MMR ofcourse, but it does give an indication
1 Inch and Proud2 votesi feel like from 97 lp-99. it should round up to promos. this is the highest lp ive had because all the shitter kids are at school... but like why not just give me promos. 97 98 99 are all such scummy numbers to leave me at :/ edit: make 92 the cut off. idk how low lp gain gets. the lowests ive gotten is like 19
TwistingSwords6 votesI mean I get the frustration, but then people at 96 LP will say "well im just 1 LP away from being rounded up to promos, this sucks".
DuskDaUmbreon5 votesYeah. It's always a slippery slope if you start rounding like that, with no clear end.
I did hear a good idea about making excess LP carry over to the next rank, to stop 99 lp from feeling as bad. That works out pretty well without falling to the same slippery slope.
Yordle Skywalker1 votesWOW i never thought about that idea and it's ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT

You answered your own question then lol
DuskDaUmbreon3 votesSo what about 96 95 and 94 after you make 97-99 round to 100?

You seem to value LPs.
Stop doing that, Lps do not make you climb, your mmr does.
