I was just in a ranked game and won.. However, i only gained 8 LP... thought it was just me or some shit MMR thing or something but likewise, the enemy team was saying they only lost like 6 LP for the loss. Was there some new thing in the patch i don't know about that would cause this?

It was probably from the premades. I don't know the exact formula, but I would expect that if High Silver players were in queue with Low Bronze players, than the matchmaking system would have a similar premade on the enemy team. Then, because the MMR gap is so large across the game, it makes the win or loss less impactful due to the instability of the matchup.
