Fix your Game Riot - Placements

Before you say to me "you're just salty that you got a low rank from placements", remember I haven't even done placements because I hate them and Riot needs to fix their game. I am hoping I get support on this, placements are just broken. After you get placed, if you win 8 games, and lose 2, that is enough for you to go from let's say Silver IV to Silver III. However, if you win 8 games and lose 2 in your placements then you get the same rank you had last season. Are you kidding me? Please don't tell me people actually support this. If someone gets a win rate of 80% for 10 games why do they get the rank they achieved FAIRLY the season before. For an example there's this youtuber whom you probably seen before, his name is BrickyOrchid8Syndra. You know. . .that guy who got diamond and plat since the season he started and he screwed up in his placements. He's Silver III. HOW?!?!

So, I really wouldn't be helping if I didn't offer a solution. . .I really don't though, just make them more forgiving. You keep your rank from last season if you get 5 wins out of 5 losses, that shows you haven't gotten better and you didn't get worse either. So if you got 10/0 on your placements, that doesn't mean you go up 1 rank like you do in the current placements system, it should mean you go up like 2 or 3. That's a 100% win rate throughout 10 games, that's not easy to achieve. If you get 0 out of 10 in the current system, then you would have to have gotten plat last season if you don't want bronze V. And it still would be penalizing, just it won't be so harsh. Another way this could be improved is by giving the players a redo on our placements if we do bad (lower than 5/5), this can really help people who already did their placements and got screwed over by them.

Thank you for your attention.
