Ranked system in league.
So i've been playing league for about four years now maybe longer and I have asked the same question for four years and no one wants to answer... How does the ranked Lp gain and loss system work? I feel like most of the time the reason I and others get angry at league is because we don't understand WHY we are being screwed over sometimes. It creates a lot of confusion which also creates a lot of frustration and genuine rage. I have a 55% winrate in league and I am earning as much LP as I lose. Whereas my friends who have a lower win rate gain way more than they lose. I don't quite understand if it's based on winrate, position, how well you play? I just want to understand WHY. If I understood how it worked I would enjoy the game more because I wouldn't be as confused or frustrated.
