Why is placements allowed in already ranked games?... Why its dumb

Need to change it so if they lose a lot in placements they place 200 sr below where they were last season instead of putting them in same exact spot, that way they dont throw games on purpose.

Idk what you mean, but it would be frustrating to lose so much sr for only a handful of games. I think the “reset mmr” isnt such a bad idea, but it would suck if they did that every season. Sr is pretty much based on w/l, and I know for a fact that hard carries do exist, so its not like people get stuck at 50/50. I think the issue is that everyone has a bad day at some point, not that there are bad players stuck at high elos.

Normal SR loss / gain is 24 per game. Losing 10 placement games would on average drop 240 SR.
