cause you probable get nervous and u go into them like "man it sucks i lsot my last promo hope it doesnt happen again" or you tilt yourself worrying like MAN GOTTA WIN GOTTA WIN which can make you in turn do stupid plays. I personally take everygame, promo or not, in ranked as just that. another ranked game. rarely do i look at lp gain/lose because in the end it will just make me worry if i lose a lot or something

Promos are easy. Not getting complete vegetables in Gold 1 is a miracle.

Gold 2 - all good Gold 1 - if I could combine brains of my teammates I'd have half a brain.

there is a logical explanation - MMR.

every game you win your MMR will increase about 20 points. so say your MMR is around 1350. you need to win 3 in a row to get to your promos and you do it. but after the first win your MMR jumps to 1370. 2nd win 1390, 3rd 1410. now you start your promos but your MMR is much higher than it was so you will be up against stronger opponents or they expect you to be able to carry weaker teammates.

that is matchmaking.

i get a feeling the game is rigged also. sometimes the time/physical length or damage feels off on something

Basically as you win games, the system thinks you are getting better. This results in better opponents. The problem is, when you need to win 2-3 games in a row to get to promos, then win at least 2 more. Because you won several games in a row, the system compensates by putting you against players that are much better. EG starting at 100, you win a game you are at 110. You win a 2nd game you are at 120. Your third game 130, and you get to promos. The system now thinks you are much better than it originally thought so it pits you against people 150 or higher because it thinks you are at that level. Result is lost promos almost every time.
