How much LP should I get?

Mat7itan·May 4, 2015·1 votes·859 views

I won 3 of my provisionals and got bronze 1 (I am playing at a mid silver level if not higher i really don't know anymore). Anyway after that I lost few games so my lp was a 0. However, I won the last two ranked games I played and I haven't played ranked since. For two games that just seems like a lot of lp. It is my first season of ranked so I don't know what the average lp gain per game is so on average what is lp gained? (I would assume that it also varies based on your rank).

In theory, you should be getting about 24lp for win and lose 10-14lp based on this:

The Average MMR for this league is 1,066. 1,118beta MMR

How much LP you get or lose depends on your MMR against your opponents total MMR. For instance, if you're silver and you get placed in a bronze game you'll win less LP for your win and lose more if you lose, and the opposite if you're in a game that is higher, like gold. And because of this you and someone else on your team can get different LP for a win, because it's base on "your" MMR vs the general MMR of the game. This is also why might notice a drop in LP gain (getting single digits) and a lose will still be like 20ish in division 1 of your tier, this is because your at the top of your tier (IE: the highest MMR).

But if you're in a game that mostly everyone is the same MMR then it's already been said: Win: around 20, Lose: around 15.
