PSA:
We start of season resetted to where your MMR should put you. Because of the thing I mentioned last week, where we were not demoting people often enough (especially from tier boundaries like E4, P4, etc.), there were many cases where a player was Emerald with Gold MMR or Plat with Silver MMR, etc.
This was usually because someone lost a lot at the tier boundary. Some peoples' placements might feel a bit "brutal" as a result.
Unfortunately, this was one of the side effects of making better visible rank matches this season and it's our bad for allowing these "inflated" situations last season in the first place.
We understand a lot more about why these situations are happening now in the first place and will do our best to avoid them for this season and beyond.
