LP Loss/Gains

First off, I am lit.

Yes, I messed up a week or so ago and got bumped to bronze 3-4, but I got back into Silver and clawed my way into S4 and have been moving slowly toward S3.

But after having won a good majority of my recent games to get this far after having fallen so far, you would think that I've paid my dues and that my LP gains would reflect that and my losses wouldn't hurt so much, but the truth is, it does not.

Instead, I'm given -20 or more for losses and earning less than 20 for wins.

And simply because I had ONE bad week. ONE loss streak. And now I am paying through the nose after how many numerous victories.

This is fucking bullshit.

Edit-

Upon further inspection it appears as your MMR is rising but it is matching you with people much lower MMR than you.

You seem to be doing good tbh.

Your LP gains and loses are based partially on MMR, in that if you win against enemies with lower MMR than you, you get less LP from it and if you loss against enemies with a lower MMR than you, you lose more LP. So if Madsin is correct in that you're being matched with people with a lower MMR than you then you're gonna come up against this more often. Basically the matchmaking system has decided that Silver 4/5 is the correct Elo for your skill level.
