so last season i was in bronze 2 but matched with silver 2 - gold 5. I won seven out of the ten promos and still in bronze 2. shouldn't i have been placed in a higher division if i won majority of promo games?

The placement determination takes into consideration your placement games W/L ratio and Rank last season, when determining your initial Ranking. Most likely saw the discrepancy between your MMR and Ranking, adjusted you down a Rank. The system dose this because it is designed to not to put you way above your skill level when initally Ranking you. If you keep playing and consistently winning (55%+ winrate), you will climb up to gold or even higher!

Ultimately your initial Placements don't really matter in the long run. The 30+ games right after those placements are WAAAAAAAAY more important. I also wouldn't put too much stock in a Rank until someone has over 200 games played.

Promos place you roughly where you were last season. They're not truly promos. The system is a joke, welcome to LoL ranked.
