When in ranked when you keep on losing but doing really well like 12/3/10 or something on many games that gets added to your overall stats and after awhile you could be facing plat players when you and entire team are all silver.
Is there some truth to that if so that is oppressive af.

Lmk how does it actually work

False, KDA doesn’t effect mmr. It’s only win or lose. the only way silver players would be playing against plats in a ranked match would be a combination of unusually high mmr and/or the plat players having low mmr for their rank.

(Mmr of teams facing each other generally is pretty even)
However depending on when your queuing, if duo, and elo range, mmr difference can be really apparent.

Also elo is not synonymous with mmr. You can be silver 4 with g1 mmr lol.
You also want to be looking at stuff like wr, recent win streaks etc

silvers cant face plat players period. you can only play 1 tier above or 1 tier below.

Now it's possible to play with previous season plat, which means they were boosted/suck and you're higher than you're supposed to be.

This is false but typically only if you're smurfing. If your mmr is high enough you can play in low diamond on a silver account.

whats your account name so we can see the opgg? highly unlikely you're in bronze and played vs gold players unless a norm or flex.
