Demoted? What the heck?
I lost just 1 game on 0lp and i get demoted? Wut? How it's possible? I always needed to lose like 3-4 games on 0lp to get demote. So whats going on now? Im so tilted >.<

Demotion is based on your MMR, not number-of-games-lost-at-0LP. If your mmr is low from a series of W-L-L-W-L-W-L-L type sprees where you have a less than 50% winrate despite never actually losing at 0lp, your mmr is still going down, which is what ultimately decides if you do get demoted when you finally do lose one at 0LP.
You have a 3 game protection after being promoted but you lose them as soon as you win a game at 0LP.
