I dont understand how i won one and lost two games today and i got demoted. Im not an amazing player nor im i even really good but your system literally promotes bad players to screw over others. It does not make any sense. Can someone pls explain the algorithm that is used to demote me. I really want to know because a couple days ago i lost like three at 0 pts. Sometimes i wonder why i even play this game. I honestly love it thats why but come on. give me a break im in silver 3 now silver 4 keep punishing me whatever but i want reasons why!

also how does my threes team skip promos... its done it like three times where it just promotes us but in fives it never does that even on hefty win streaks. I honestly just want to know how it decides because to me its very random and does what it wants with no regulations

you have to earn mmr in any given league. theoretically it's "easy" to climb but "hard" to stay there (on the first promotion).

What's even worse is getting demoted because you have an intentional feeder on your team who goes 1 and 20 and constantly messes up the team (a bard). it's stupid how riot will go after naughty language but let people like that ruin other people's games and demote them in ranked.. what's even worse is riot won't give back that win either so the intentional feeders win.
