my LP earning/loss is broken srsly

Ok im B1 and I thought it was suppose to be normal to have the worst time to try to claw out so I ignored this. recently I started talking to friends about their lp earnings per win and all that and found out. Something is way broken with my LP per game. I win 2 LP per game and lose 6 per loss... I will go on a 3 game win streak gain 6LP total and lose one and all that progress is gone. I would have to play flawlessly to even make it out of b1 in 50 consecutive wins. this seems broken to me. Others ive talked to make 10-25 LP per win. and they are in silver working their way up. How is it possible that it is harder to break out of bronze than to climb in silver.

long story short. I get 2lp per win and -6 per loss. This cant be right for b1.

(a little add on due to something I just read. It was a silver player who said if he went on a 9 game win streak he would have 82 lp... To put this in perspective he is silver im bronze if I went on a 9 game win streak I would have 18 lp...)

Its just because your in b1 when you get to silver 5 or something it gets a ton easier, its all to do with the first rank.

It is just the curse of being clamped

just did the math real quick and keeping a 4-1 win ratio (the minimum i can possibly have to make progress) i have to play 200 games keeping a strict at least 4-1 win ratio and i would have to make a guess at saying even 80% of the community doesn't have a constant 4-1 win ratio... yeah my lp is broken
