I just started ranked, and I'm wondering how many games do I have to lose to drop a division. I'm silver 5 and after two losses I'm concerned with whether or not the next loss will drop me to bronze 1. Furthermore is there a website or something that explains the way ranked works in League of Legends because I can't seem to get a valid source of information.
Phife1 votesit varies depending on your mmr, usually its about 3 losses.
Tsunday2 votesthat is for tiers, numbers like 1 2 3 4 not Silver to Bronze
Syn Zykan1 votesIt is entirely dependent on your MMR, if it falls to a point where you are lower than a division under you it will drop you. It isn't a set number of games, but I wouldn't stress too much about going down. You can climb back out despite the negative stigma that goes with being bronze.

they changed it. it use to be like that, but you can now. you can test your luck if you don't believe and want to find out.
Sukishoo1 votesYeah it just depends on the MMR you have which is hidden for the most part.
You can look up a rough estimate of where you stand here http://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=Fm+Dawn+Savior+
If that thing ever says you're lower than most in that league then it'd probably be an indication of dropping. I'd guess it's least somewhere around 10-15 losses in a row for your MMR to drop that badly though. I was at Gold 5 last season and went about 9 losses in a row and didn't fall, so was getting a bit worried when that happened, so I know the feeling.
