How is the amount of LP gained for a win determined?

Sometimes I get +50, sometimes it's +75, other times +150. I don't get it. Does it reflect your opponents rank? The stronger, the more LP you get if you beat them? If that's the case, why did I get 150 LP for beating a player who isn't even calibrated yet?

Win streak gives bonuses after 2 wins. So your 3rd win would get you more points (like 75 instead of 50, then 100 instead of 75 etc).

You also get more points if you win against a opponents in a higher rank.

I see, that makes sense, thank you.

*additional info : it doesn't work at Plat and higher ranks. The bonus is limited at like 1-2 more LP so it become a grind fest. Don't know if it's intended or a bug tho.

It's intended.
I'm plat** and it takes forever to go up if you don't win every single fight.

It's stunning that some of the best players reach over 50000 already when you win like 50 per fight. Or lose it.
