We are getting another reset and this time it isn't bugged like the preseason. You are going to drop regardless if you go 10-0 unless you are like bronze III or below. Then maybe you might go up a division but anyone stuck in bronze will likely stay in bronze when they get placed again.

so whats the point of placements, put everyone in bronze n forget about it. why do I have to play 10 meaningless games just to be put down a division no matter how good I play? it sounds like a giant waste of time. you would think after 6 seasons they would figure it out. but not riot. no they never learn

I've been saying this for years. It's personal performance that needs to be evaluated and points given/lost for wins or loses respectively.

This system is in place for the vast majority of online competitive games for a reason. It's fair and works.

You go on one losing streak in this game and you pretty much screwed, it takes forever to climb back from that as your mmr gets tanked.

Why would you drop if you win 10 games in a row. Seems that should merit an equal or higher rank.

Seems like a really steep drop when you ended low gold to get flung in to Bronze even after winning a majority of placement games. Like wat.

They need to stop having systems that weigh games so much.

I.e. win X out of 10 or X out 3

Time to go back to Bronze 1 or 2!!

I learned from the last three times that I'm always bronze. It's a horrible feeling that no matter how well I do, what I play, even if I dominate all 10 games, I'm going back to be placed B4 or B5. It's not something I feel good about, the fact that I climbed my way out of there ALMOST to S3 that it's all a waste because I'm going back to the bottom of the barrel.

So this last season I was placed gold IV

I ended at gold V the season prior.
