It takes your mmr and then adds a flat mmr to that, then halves the sum of your previous mmr and the flat amount, then your placement matches will test if you just got lucky in s3 and suck in s4 so you are demoted, or if you are great in s4 and deserve a promotion, this is a great opportunity for people who were placed in bronze to get out.Heimerdinger

(at least this is what i think,, no actual facts behind it,,,)

It takes your MMR, adds a flat 1200 (I believe) to it, then divides that by two, and then your provisionals are judged accordingly. So if you were Bronze and won against Silver, you're likely to be raised up. If you were Diamond and lost to Silver/Gold compositions (who may have been gold/plat before the reset), you'll likely drop down to their mmr.

Hope this helps.
