Recently, I've been playing alot of katarina in solo/duo queue, and i almost never feed and generally have a good kda and kill participation. I would say i do very well in my games, but i lose some of them because of teammates, throwing, and whatnot. Whenever i do win i would gain 17-18(usually 17) and it has been that way for a few days, but i used to get around 20's. So how can i get more lp per game?

the standard answer is "win more games than you lose" which is completely wrong. my mmr is so messed up, i lost twice as much rankeds as i won, yet i gain over 30 lp per win and lose around 6-7. check my ranked history, i skipped 2 division in the course of less than 5 wins. since riot never bothered explaining how their system works who knows.

more and more people start fo (finally) complain that the mmr doesnt work AT ALL sadly riot reached the point where they dont care anymore about what anyone says outside of reddit.

ps: anyone who downvotes me cause "your statement is wrong", check my history. twice the loses in ranked, yet went from iron 2 to bronze 2 in under 10 wins. if that isnt broken then idk what is.
