User blog:Lokiwg/My Ranked Horror Story

My Ranked experience -  i started ranked at the end of season 2 i didnt even get to finish my promotionals but i was 6-0 in my season 2 pormotionals.

I assumed i would have the same experienc with the acclaimed improved ranking system of season 3. However my raked promotionals for season 3 placed me in bronze 1 with 6-4. i was and am very ok with that i figured ill burn my way out of B1. i played 3 games earning 30+ LP for each game! i was winning every game but loseing my promotionals every time, but i didnt stress or get frustrated beacause i was like its only a matter of time befor i get lucky Right.



I was so wrong on my 6th or 7th promotional to silver 5 lost it like all the others then instead of instantly going back up to my promotionals i went on a losing streak of 6 games. this did not bother me though beacuse out of 6 games i only lost 38 LP beacuse it was punishing me 3 - 8 lp a game.



i felt immortal due to my high gains and beond low penalties, so i thought i would help my friend who was placed in Bronze 5 even though he didnt deserve it. i played 6 - 8 games with him losing all of them because his opponents were where i was and his allies were in Wood 6.



<span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">i still wasnt worried beacause even after all that i still was at 30-40 Lp. However i shoulod have been beacuse now my win rate went from 66-75% down to 49 - 51%.

<p style="margin:12pt0in;line-height:15.75pt;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">I played a couple games myself and lost them now losing between 10-17 LP and droped to Bronze 2. I still wasnt worried ceacause i know i am better then Bronze 2 so i played some games whent back up to B1 with no problem. But what pissed me off was when my first game back in Bronze 1 was a lost and droped me back into Bronze 2 then i made it back to bronze 1

<p style="margin:12pt0in;line-height:15.75pt;"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">This reapeated for about 7 promotionals going in and out of Bronze 1, but i eventualy when into a losing streak and burned down to the lower half of Bronze 2 And that is were i have been stuck.
