You cannot get demoted from division V unless your MMR is a full tier below your rank. So, in Silver V, you are safe from demotion unless you lose enough games to sink down to Bronze V MMR.
It is important to note, however, that even with Silver V showing on your profile, you will be considered Bronze for matchmaking purposes if you just lose a game or two. Reaching Silver does not protect you from losing MMR and playing with Bronze players again.
I'm in Bronze I trying to get into silver. This is a good question that I would love to know the answer to
Yes, if you lose a game at Silver V with 0 LP.
Yes, you can, but it's sort of difficult. There's a lot of factors that go into it. I know a buddy who lost 6 games in a row with 0 LP on Silver V and didn't get demoted. If you keep your MMR above the Silver V threshold, you will unlikely ever get demoted. But if you are playing at lets say a 1000 MMR, which is like Bronze 1, and you are Silver V and lose 3 on 0 LP, you would probably get demoted.
You can go from silver to bronze by playing poorly consistently. It'll take some serious effort, but it can happen.
Ok thanks
