win and loss streaks due to matchmaking?

I am absolutely convinced that the system is set up so that you go on loss streaks if you win too many times in a row.

I make a topic on this like bimonthly... lmao yeah, I've been convinced a looong time ago

I never "ease" out of a win streak either say 6 straight wins and the game doesnt just lets me off with some win,lose,win,lose,lose,win... when it happens, i FUCKING PLUMMET... LOSE,LOSE,LOSE,LOSE,LOSE,LOSE,LOSE

rito pls, this is so consistent that I know it's not me sucking, it's not cuz I'm on tilt, nope I certain I'm being handed some half assed players... the moment i lose once after a winstreak.. I immediately know that "it" is here -cringe- x. x countless hours of pointless games ensues cuz theyre all gonna be losses

Well not sure about that, but motivation is a huge factor after loosing a couple games. If you let that get to you, then you're bound to loose more game. On a side note, I've noticed that game modes like TeamBuilder tents to match me against higher Elo opponents. For example, I'm Gold 5 and I was matched against a Plat 2, plat 4 and plat 5. Not exactly fair or anywhere near my ranked status.

So maybe it's more about different game modes, like TB that's often dead and might take anyone that's online.

You need to think of wins as elo gains.

From personal experience, you don't gain significant MMR in just one or two wins. If you are able to go on a winning streak, chances are you are significantly better than others in your division. That is when Rito would adjust your MMR and pair you up with stronger opponents.
