Why is my mmr lower than all these other people in gold, but I carried myself up here to gold 4. For some reason I also keep getting paired with silvers. Is master yi carrying considered noob?

Also why am I getting only 17 lp per win in gold? shouldnt i be getting around 25 ish?

KDA doesn't have any bearing on your MMR, only win/loss does. In any case, you have a 1.65 KDA with Master Yi.

Out of your top 10 most-played champions, your highest KDA is Kindred with 2.11. And that's your 10th most played champion in ranked, which means everything above that has an even lower KDA. That alone proves you aren't hard carrying games. And for the record, any champion you can truly carry a game on isn't noob. Actually carrying a game alone is difficult and takes skill.

As for your MMR, you've played over 1000 ranked games this season and have only won 521 of them. Your win rate is BARELY above 50%, which is why your MMR is so low.

Lastly, the amount of LP you earn per win is based on your MMR in comparison with the average MMR of your league/division. So because your MMR is lower than the league/division you are currently in, you are earning less LP on wins and probably losing more on losses until the game agrees that you have proved yourself a better player.

"I'm not hard carrying games". I literally get at least a quadra kill in 3 out of 5 yi games. I always have most gold and always deal the most damage. I also always have the most map pressure and take the most towers.

But MMR doesn't really look at your individual game stats. It tracks your wins, streaks you go on, and slightly takes into account how poorly or well you did in each game. So it doesn't matter if you get quadra kills. I've gotten penta kills and still lost the game. Just because I got a penta kill doesn't mean Riot is going to raise my MMR. I lost the game, which means there was something I could have done better, resulting in a loss of MMR.

Besides, getting a quadra kill means nothing. You could have just last hit every single one of those kills but dealt almost no damage.

You literally get a quadra kill 1 in 11 games as Yi, and down 1.35 turrets per game. Match history does track your stats you know. Gold earned per game is also below the average for Yi.

I'm honestly impressed with the number of games you have.... especially with just 2 champs. Your KDA is all over the place, though. You might be dying too much for no apparent reason, though I'm not one to talk. Your Vayne and Yi seem to be exceptional. Maybe you should just focus playing solely on those 2 and you'll see a major improvement on your ranked gains? I'm currently in a slump and have quit ranks for this season. I'll aim for plat next season~
