- After Placements, you won't be the same rank you ended S5 / S6 Preseason as.
- If you deserve to be a higher rank, then eventually you will get there.
For those who don't understand why there are MMR resets and why Placements are how they are take into consideration the following.
The game is constantly changing, Players can be a Bronze material player one patch and a Gold Player in another patch. Don't expect to be the same rank every season just because you ended S5 as X rank. The game is always changing that means the player must adapt to these changes. Some players adapt to change better than others, that is why they are ranked higher. The point of the MMR Reset is to display how a player has adapted to these changes, which means the rank you're placed at isn't so significant. 10 Game is statistically not a large enough sample size to draw any conclusions, so stop worrying about your Rank and continue playing more games.

Just because you won 8/10 Games doesn't mean your are entitled to a Higher rank. Winning 8/10 Games vs Bronze is not the same as Winning 8/10 Games vs Diamonds. You were Bronze last season, so don't expect to start any higher.
If you continue winning 8/10 games you should be out of Bronze in no time, the first 10 games are equally significant to the matches after placements, so keep playing more games and don't worry about where you are placed.
