I think we've agreed upon that your MMR doesn't get altered when you get promoted, so if you stay at the level you're at now, you'll eventually end up at a level corresponding to who you're facing. True, guess I'll have to play more tho  I'm so lazy!  | ||

287 plat -> 287 Diamond. I went 5-0 in my placement matches, so maybe that made a difference? Honestly I was surprised I wasn't placed in Diamond right away. But I really have no clue how that all works. | ||

I'm a bit surprised you didn't lose any points when promoted. What was your record like post placement matches before you were promoted? | ||

Oddly enough I performed better once I got into diamond. | ||

Weird, I wonder why I lost some points and you didn't. Things went/are going roughly the same for me. Around the same point total when promoted with about the same ratio. What kind of players are you getting matched up against? I sort of think it has to do with remaining bonus pool and where you're expected to end up. If you're getting matched against slightly higher opponents it would make sense. Edit: Just averaged the rating of my last 10 opponents and came up with about 1450. If my little theory is right yours should come out just a bit higher. | ||

Top 10 the entire time?) 1840 plat -> 1710 diamond Woo! Gosh I hope this is what's in store for me. I went from 1300 diamonds to about 1500 plat, then ranked up to 1800+ very easily. Been in the top 100 platinum in world since. I need to play a lot more so I can get my promotion back, darn it. | ||
