Last season I ended up gold 5 after much effort since I was originally placed in bronze 5 on my provisionals.This season,I got placed s2 with something that must have been like 7 wins and 3 defeats.I just reached platinum,even went up to p3 but lost many games in a row and I'm once again p5 with a g2-g1 mmr.Will my bad mmr affect my placement next season or will my actual rank make up for it or something?
Muxxik1 votesYour placements are affected by your MMR, not your actual rating.
That being said, there are high changes to the ranked system next season that will probably benefit most people coming out of placements.
Unlucky Kat1 votesI see...should I try to improve my mmr before season ends or afterwards in order to have better luck with the placement games?I'm afraid I might get demoted to gold if I do that now and lose the plat board and all....

There's still enough time left in the season that even if you were to drop you could still get it back. That being said if you're asking that question at all then you probably have some level of anxiety in your ranked games and maybe lose more than you would if you were just enjoying the game. Personally, I'd just play ranked and focus on the game and not your rating at least as best you can. Being anxious about losing your border during a game is only gonna make it happen faster in most cases.
