I went from 2900-3020 today very easily playing fairly dominant and had great teams. Now I just lost 120 SR in a row all losses in unwinnable games. This happens to me pretty much on the regular. Explain?

Where do you think you deserve to be?
Mid to high diamond easy. Don’t feel mechanically there yet for master. Game sense and positioning I believe is very solid.
LoL I’d do anything to do that well. I can lose 500 SR in an hour.
You need an explanation as to why you gained 100 Sr and then lost 100 Sr?
…sounds like you’re about at the rank you belong at.
If you think you lost because those games were “unwinnable,” maybe next time record them. Watch what you did. Think about what you could have done differently. Ask for some advice.
It’s not the matchmakers fault that you can’t climb, and others can.
And that’s (one reason) why you aren’t climbing
You think you belong higher than you currently do belong.
Happens all the time, and it’s really the reason all my friends have quit. It seems rigged as hell, to the point where you can’t even enjoy the wins because the streak of unwinnable games always follows.
Something is VERY off with the matchmaker. I think they’re handicapping matches, meaning if you are hot… it will cancel you out for the sake of an even match. Meaning, prepare for some real bad teammates as a reward for winning “too much.”
The matchmaker is trying too hard to do things it shouldn’t be doing, and that’s where pretty much ALL the frustration comes from. Really stupid system, they NEED to look at it.

That’s what like 3 or 4 games? No offense, but SR fluctuates, this is 100% normal. If this was like 500-1000 SR, then I’d say you were doing something wrong; but 120? come on dude. If you actually deserve a rank, then you should have no problem getting back there given 120 SR is basically nothing in any rank other than GM.
stop playing after the first loss and continue on an alt 
LOL THIS. So if hes playing at the rank he belongs at and feels hes doing everything right why shouldnt he climb? Thats the whole point of climbing being higher than you belong this is the dumbest Anti-Climbing argument ive ever heard
Because he doesn’t belong higher since he’s not doing everything right.
Just cause he thinks and says does not mean he IS doing everything right.
Players like him always fail to see their own mistakes.

Another BS Argument saying no one is capable of climbing if youre doing everything right than you should and WILL climb.
This is normal. You need to be patient. Because diamond is where PBSR ends all of the players that use it to climb are there so it’s a dice roll where you have to get 6 or lose. I’ve been stuck in plat for 10 seasons and i got out about month ago. I climbed to 3250-3300 and im steadily there even though my gameplay didn’t change at all since plat. Games are much more enjoable and less people troll. Just keep doing it and someday you will get the lucky streak that will get you out of PBSR zone.

If that’s the case then a player will climb
That’s not what I’m talking about in either of my previous comments so I fail to see how you ended at such a conclusion.
If games feel easy to me and I am statistically doing more than my team why would games suddenly get harder in ranks I already passed up easily? It’s not a gradual skill increase. It’s a sudden impossible to win games. I’m not the only one to say this. It’s a fact the system doesn’t work well. Unless you’re a mechanical wizard you don’t carry anything. It’s a team game.
