I've won multiple games in a row before, but I haven't gotten two rank promotions back to back. I didn't even hard carry my team or anything either. And the games weren't extremely lopsided. Why did I get it in this scenario? Is it a glitch? I've seen other people derank after one lost recently, so maybe the rank system is just broken right now. Anyone else rank up back to back?
External link →Basically, Riot fired the person that created the ranked system. They are in the process of reworking it. It's currently ass, and we're hoping their next fix balances it out. It would be great to have something like league, where you could see your LP, but we are just hoping for balance at this point.
An unfortunately seeming frequent but still ultimately false rumor; we've a fully staffed and dedicated team constantly working on our ranked systems each and every patch, have been doing for years, will be doing for years more. Bare with us, we're listening to feedback and I'm confident we'll get to a point that addresses your concerns. :)
I got placed G2 on Monday
Having only recently placed its common to see rapid rank adjustments like this as the system attempts to establish your baseline rank based on having fewer games to assess your performance.
You've had some hard stomps, consistent wins and majority of games see you performing at a sizable positive KDA. It's not a surprise that these things coupled with your recently being placed has resulted in a series of promotions, congrats! Under the right circumstances double promotions are even possible.
Keep playing and before long you should see your rank placement begin to converge and the climb to get more gradual :)
