A Note On Delaying Losses

[Szei]

This means delaying losses is detrimental once you have placed, BUT it doesn't address the fact that you can delay losses when in the process of placing to go 5-0 in placement matches. Yes the losses will hurt later but your initial placement mmr will put you in a higher league in the first place. I'd rather go 5-0 and get say masters and then lose my first 2 masters game than go 3-2 and place like clever and then win my first 2 clever games. Though ultimately if you don't belong in your placed league you'll get demoted eventually anyway.
