your last season placement, your hidden MMR, and how effective you were in the matches all have a role in where you are placed now. I also was placed bronze but the competition was so god awful i carried myself out in 2-3 days. working towards gold now which shouldnt be much longer.

I need to get hold of a decent desktop, my laptop is all I have at the moment and it won't run LoL above about 5 FPS [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Also, it is possible to "boost" your MMR by duo queuing with someone of a significantly higher MMR IF they are capable of carrying you. Risky for them if they feel they will get into 4v5 matches but if they are confident its do-able. More so if you eat it and take the support role. I know a popular female streamer who was a bronze player prior to streaming, got a few lonely nerd high end players interested in her good looks and got elo boosted into legitimacy.

Duoing will raised both of your MMR slightly when it tries to match you against others. If you win a game you gain less MMR than normal. If you lose a game you lose more MMR than normal. Since this is your first time playing ranked you will start with a low MMR rating. After several more games you should end up where you belong.

It is too late now, but at the beginning of next season you will definitely want to solo your placement matches. Unless you don't mind the penalty, of course.

Sounds messed up to me. Surprised they aren't clearer about this and make it known to the players in advance.

It is pretty well documented, but unfortunately they don't explicitly state it.

I just wanna get out of Bronze. The players are not only bad at the game but are troll-y douchers as well.

Played friend's bronze accounts and played multiple accounts to diamond 1. Can confirm trolling/raging never gets better and people will always have horrible games.
