How Many Losses Can I Take at 0 LP?
Basically, I was placed in S5 after placements at 0 LP. I lost 2 games, won one and got to 22 LP. I just lost 2 more and I am back at 0. My MMR is apparently 1143. What is my safety net looking like here?

So you're gaining more lp than you're losing? If so your mmr would be higher than expected for S5, so you have some net. Probably 3 or 4 ish games, but it's hard to say exactly.
(Keep in mind that wherever you got that mmr number from, it's only an estimate so probably not completely accurate.)
I believe if you lose 3 or 4 games at 0 LP you get demoted.
it's happened to me once.
If your MMR is high enough, you just won't go down. You also can't go down within your first 5 games upon reaching a new division.
