So at the start of this preseason I was excited for the changes and the new ranking and I understood/understand what is expected out of it and yes I might be lower then I finished. That is fair. I completed my 10 games and went 8-2 which is the best I've ever done my placements and I was really happy and I was placed in Gold 3 and I'm like alright cool, great place to start for Flex que. And now today, I get placed in Silver 4 after 1 game because, well I dont know fucking why, excuse my language but seriously, WTF guys! That is a huge drop, and the fact that I WON my 1 extra placement. So my win from G3 gets me S4 explain that please. If its a mistake on your end for messing something up with how people should rank then that is completely wrong for us the players to be penalized for it. ( I honestly thought, "O, OK" maybe Ill get more where I was like G5, but dropping that low, seriously, more than a full 5 ranks, really?? If I lost the game, then i wouldnt be as pissed.) But either way its wrong for something like that, if anything make us redo the 10 games, not base a whole thing on a single game like WT actual F.. You need 10 games for a consistent placement, ACTUALLY, you only need 1. Come on guys you are better then that... First time I have been this angry with Riot. Fix it!!!

The system has been known to be wrong with placements and match-making recently. It has resulted in stuff such as Diamond players being placed in Bronze, Silver players being matched with Diamond players, etc.

The recent update was meant to fix this and place people back at their appropriate ranking.

Generally, players are expected to drop about 5 divisions (or a full tier) after the soft reset. This is expected and occurs pretty much every season.

You never actually each the Gold 3 placement. The system was just outright wrong and has since been (hopefully) corrected.

Was odd since I was placed in high silver and it droped me randomly to S5 so I have to redo the whole climb whoopie for me

I went from a G4 placement, climbed to G3 during preseason, and now im S3. Completely discouraged me, I doubt i'll be playing much of ranked until the season start due to this BS. (I ended SoloQ @ G3)

I went form S3 to B4 with a loss... granted a loss so drop me to S5, hell B1 I could handle, but B4 is some B.S.
