Bronze 4 LP Clamping

TSA unityinstall·6/23/2015, 6:51:36 AM·1 votes·847 views

Hi Summoners, Recently I had got myself out of bronze 5 to bronze 4 and I realized that there had been a critical problem. I could never get lp gains that I had when i did in bronze 5. One won game for me would give me 12-13 lp, while a lost would give me 18-20 lp lost. It feels like I am playing division 1 games. Anyone know the reason why?

Regards, TSA Unityinstall

You probably have a really rough MMR. But what is MMR? Well, MMR is what determines how much LP you gain and how much you lose for each game you play. Basically, if the game truly believes you play like a bronze player, it's going to give you a bronze MMR. This is why two people in the exact same queue might gain and lose different amounts. All I can say is that you need to play better; the game should respond postively to good play.

I'm not saying you're bad, but I will tell you that you should keep practicing in normals, or you'll just keep teetering on the edge like you are now.

win rates probably negative. Game see's you as bronze 4 level so its saying you belong there. The more you win the faster the "clamp" gets fixed
