yes, it is most prevalent and obvious in higher ranks, due to master not being capped like challenger and gm is, S11 D4 players are currently Masters 80LP and yes they do also learn and get stronger in the game, but their LP gains, the lp floor for gm and challenger respectively and the lp cap of challenger indicate that the elo inflation in league is there and being a result of riot increasing lp gains as well as a change in game psychology and increase in getting addicted due to getting faster and better results while not investing more, which give players a good feedback and increases riots income hence why they do it

We already went over this, masters 0lp is equivalent to d1 0lp in s11. Everyone got pushed about 100lp forwards. The case with this is very weird, most players in apex have negative gains in range of +23/25 and -25/27, but there are accounts with close to 50% win rate that get more lp than they lose. If you look at eune current top 23 player is on average playing against people with 600lp below him and gets +24/25 and -21/24
