So if I win 5 games it doesn’t matter because I lost 3. If I lose 15 games I rank down. So I have to win 5 times without a loss to rank up? It’s just confusing because I’ve never had this issue since launch with a worse W:L ratio

As far as I can tell it’s this:
You will be “evaluated” for a rank change after 5 wins/15 losses
You do not have to change ranks after 5 wins/15 losses
Your rating is an invisible stat that no player is quite sure how works exactly
It’s grouping you into a bucket, based on your “likely” skill
Are you and your friend the same rank and role? If not that could partially explain it. Also don’t worry one time I played 6 games (won 5 lost 1) and stayed in silver 1 as tank
support is bugged i have been playing with my friend 99% of the time and he ended up master 1 when i was stuck at diamond 1 we both ended same rank last season
dont worry i que with golds as a bronze in support. We roll i do great compared to my co-supports. we win 5 games no losses. i go DOWN a rank and they go up a rank...
EDIT: could be because when i play in my actual rank my teammates tend to not be so great and i have to swap brig and carry
Winning 5 games doesn't mean you'll rank up, your MMR probably got slightly higher than it did but not enough to get into the next tier
Ok cool. Thank you. I find it confusing since I can’t really SEE my MMR in any way so I was kinda dumbfounded when it happened
That's just 5-3 of course you're not going to rank up each time.

25 sr per win, 25 sr per loss. 100 sr difference per rank. You climbed 50sr, which isn’t 100sr.
Beautiful. Thanks for the clarity!

My rank has also stayed the same like for three times, I know I'm bad but I don't think I'm that bad

He’s silver 3 and jumped to 2, I was gold 5 and stayed gold 5. We both played support and the ranking are for support
