Maybe the way to solve part of the issue is to remove GM for the first X amount of time each season. Maybe all players can only achieve master for first 3 weeks and then the top 500 master players after 21 days become GM
Or to require 150+ games played to unlock Grand Master each season. 150 games isnt a ton, but it should remove a lot of the luck factor from the situation.
I mean I got GM after like 40 games and lost it 2 games later. Since then ive never left D1. Ive lost 8 promotion games in a row and won 5 demotions in a row.
These are actually pretty reasonable solutions.
They also need to up the amount of bonus points you get per win if your MMR is ridiculously high.
