Mine was worse. I only got 10-12 LP per win, but then I started winning consistently and it's up to 15-18 LP now. It'll keep rising as I start winning more consistently. It's just the nature of this system.

Your LP gains and loses are that way because your MMR is lower than it should be. The game doesn't think you are good enough for plat 5. If you win games, you will eventually start getting equal lp for wins/loses. Hope this helped!

Its because your mmr is lower than what league you are currently in.

Example: Lets say you are in Gold V, But you are playing with Silver III players in your game. If you win, you will receive LESS than if you lose, since you are not against Gold V players.

If you are Gold V and your game is full of Gold III's you will earn more lp for winning than you would lose for losing...

Its not a dumb system, its to keep low skilled players that got lucky getting into gold / plat back down in mmr, and to make high skilled players be able to climb elo fast while skipping divisions so they dont affect games negatively for smurfing etc.

if you want to stop losing more LP than what you are gaining. you need to either go on a win streak, or win multiple games in between loses, otherwise your mmr will keep dropping lower.

Your MMR sucks, I suggest you fix it.
