Hey everyone,

Obviously the pre-season is designed for getting all of the new patches sorted and trying them all out before the new season.

My question is, does anyone know if your ranked division in pre-season affects the division you'll be placed in at the beginning of the next season, or is it only based on where you finished last season?

Thanks

I believe the preseason and end of the last season are both factors, but I am not sure. I finished last season S4 and got placed in S5 in the preseason and I was placed B5 at the beginning of this season. This could be just bad luck, I may have just done absolutely terrible in my provisionals, but I really don't remember. My point being, I think they have said both are factors, but I can't be too sure.

It does have a impact on where you are placed but it is mostly based off of where you ended in S5.

If you play ranked in the preseason it'll affect your mmr. Assuming you rank up right now, you'll have a greater chance of placing higher in s6.

It will affect where you are placed when you do your promos. its a lance chance to get your mmr as high as you can before they do a soft reset but its not a huge factor in will you will place, definitely will help though!

Completely accurate. The higher your mmr is the better skill/ranked players you will face, thus giving you a better division

Your current MMR (preseason MMR) is the only thing that affects your MMR after the season reset. The MMR you had when season 5 ended does not count
