why is it that when you win a game you get 17 or so LP but then lose a game and lose 20 LP that means you have to win over 50% of your games to climb and that wouldn't be hard if you weren't penalized for afk players or insta lock feeders. If i win a game I get 17 LP then if i lose the next game I am further back then I started which makes no sense.
It depends on more than 1 factor. When I win it's anywhere from +17 to +30 LP and a loss can be from -5 to -20.....these are just out of the games this season for me
That means your MMR is lower than your ranking. So for instance you have Gold 5 MMR but you are in Gold 1. I don't have that problem, im actually the other way around, losing 7-15 and getting 20-30. It's so if you "luck" into a higher rank than you actually play at, you'll have a hard time staying there. Disclaimer i am not positive this is how the system works but I am reasonable confident.
