Hello People. My friend is saying that if you rly good in bronze 1 and go in to promos, you can skip few divisions. for example when u win bronze promos you go straight to silver 4-3. Is that actually a thing? or is my friend bullshitting.

if your mmr is high you can skip from division 5 to division 3, division 4 to division 2, division 3 to division 1.

you can't skip from a division 2 straight in to the next tier though.

it means maintaining a sustained extraordinarily high win rate though, when I ranked my second account I went from g2 to g1 and then p5 to p3 but I guess since I wasn't able to maintain a high enough win rate (i failed one or two promo series in plat) I wasn't able to skip from p3 to p1 and had to just grind that normally, though my lp gains were like +28 so it was pretty quick.

I'd never played rank before this year, and when I did my promos as a support, I skipped to Silver 5. That was short lived though as I realized that doing ranked as a support is basically playing Russian Roulette with 5 bullets in the chamber.
