Hey guys so I am not a super good player by any means but i play around plat I and my iRL mate was only silver so we played together with my smurf:

https://euw.op.gg/summoner/userName=TH+Tanat0s

That being sad i was always skipping divisions in the earlier seasons.

My question now since they dropped tier V I question if you can skip Tier I and move directly to the next division?

Normally i skipped lets say Gold IV and Gold II.

But now obviously starting with Gold IV i skipped Gold III and when playing decently the next skippable tier would be I.

Anyone knows if thats possible?

Ps: i posted the link just for the info, the account and my stats are nothing to flex about i know that.

Kind regards

Dont believe you can skip tier 1.

If your mmr is high enough u can skip the promos when you get there though.

At the beginning of the season during promos i skipped bronze

Not sure if possible but that was when you automatically get placed bronze and get like 70lp per win.


Edit- sorry i mean skipped promos

i was in that same situation... i skipped from 4 to 2 but skipping from 2 to next tier wasnt possible. (i got around 32 points/game so i should have been "eligible" for skipping)

You can skip division 1 into next tier's division 4. A trick I use is if you're at around 90 LP, dodge once and you'll win an additional game going into placements that boosts your mmr.

Do this twice for each division. Eventually you'll begin skipping a division and climb faster.


Dodging is best at either 90LP or 0LP. Recommend not dodging for any other reason except trolls.


You can also dodge placement matches without it effecting MMR in the beginning of a season. Just be aware that if you skip 5 games and win 5, your placement will be about the same as just playing all 10 and losing the 3-4.

Also use MMR calculators. They aren't 100% accurate. They work by calculating all players' MMRs in your matches and averaging it out. Red team always has higher MMR as well. If the calculator says your MMR is like 200-300 above your current tier, expect to skip upward.

don't play league much any more but this is how it worked in all previous seasons that i know of, unless they changed it this season or last.
