Dynamic queue is the worst thing Riot has ever forced on its playerbase.

Why, as a soloq player, do I have to deal with 100% 4 and 3 queues in ranked. Where's my soloQ anymore? This new queue type is literally giving me cancer. I can feel it eating away at my soul as I'm typing this. If I don't respond, it's cause I'm in the hospital for my first session of chemotherapy.

I hate that riot is trying to make way for the future. "We need to make this game suitable for the new generation, so it can grow into an olympic sport 5-10 years from now, we need to make sacrifices, so screw everyone who's made our game a success the past 6-7 years, we aim for the FUTURE" - Riot 2016.

This is how i feel as a veteran player. What was even the point of DQ? The game was already great, just build upon the success, we never needed DQ. As far as i know, a lot of casuals were perfectly happy with team builder, they don't need the competitiveness from ranked. Those who wanted competition, went duoQ or team ranked and everyone was happy.

What is Riot gonna do when streamers gets too sick of the queue times, can't stand the premades and just stops to stream, they lose sooooo much free publicity. But Riot is like, who cares if we lose the high elo players, they are the 0.01%, we want the other 99.9%.

So 5-10 years from now, congratulations Riot, you are now Blizzard, your game is world of warcraft, nobody takes it seriously, nobody is concidering it an e-sport and only casuals playing normal games, aram and urf are left playing your game. Was it worth it? I sure hope so.

The worst part is that they lied about solo que for months. Forcing the failure that is Dynamic que onto the solo players is one thing, but the way they lied about solo que is just fucked up.

even Rocket League manages to have a good ranked queue

1vs1 2vs2 3vs3 solo 3vs3

That's all it took to make everyone happy. And Riot, a multibillion dollar company with basically limitless resources, didn't managed to get their shit together and fix it.

Agreed. Bring back Season1-Season 4 queues. This is so stupid and irritating. The queue alone makes me so much more angry than soloq did.

I already quit the game. I cannot fathom why true solo queue players would defend Riot on dynamic queue. Or players in general in how Riot literally lied to our faces. The only thing we can do is stop playing LoL and stop spending money on RP.

Well what do you expect when Riot is working for China now. Wish they implement the Solo One Child Policy Queue for this game.

Sad how many people in this gaming community use cancer as a joke.

Literally! Good news, you have far more important things to worry about that will quickly take your mind off of dynamic queue

Besides the cancer remarks, you're right. it's shitty.

Yeah it's the worst thing. Anyone defending Dyn Q at this point about how it's fair and it is competitive in comparison to Solo Q, you can't do anything but laugh. If someone told you gravity is actually because tiny pixies are pushing you down on the ground when you jump, would you take them seriously? Because that's what people basically say when defending Dyn Q. It's a fact it's not fair; if you are against a 4 man premade and you have no premade on your team, it's pretty obvious the enemy has an unfair advantage. In fact Riot used to defend Solo Q/Duo Q and recommended Team rank for players who hated Solo Q. Guess what? People still didn't rank up like they claimed with "better teammates," they just remained the same. Dyn Q on the other hand I see easily rank up people who don't belong.

95% of my games have at least 3 premades. No chemo therapy could cure this kind of cancer.

it's funny cause in 2 years this game will be dead and the people in charge who ruined it will have moved on to the next big game cause they get to write "was some important guy at Riot games, that billion dollar company, even though my days were spent doing nothing and occasionally taking 2 ad off Vayne"

Mine is termiral.

I've stopped playing on my main, so I can level a smurf. I also picked up Warframe, a fun ftp 3rd person pve game. One hour of Warframe is way more fun than two games in Elo hell.

Because you don't. There is no way you are 100% encountering 3 and 4 mans every game.

Dynamic Queue is the second worst thing, maybe.

Kalista is definitely the worst.

RiotLyte, 5 months ago in a reddit comment:

We're going to try everything we can to make Dynamic Queue a great experience. If we don't manage to succeed here, it's super easy to go back to Solo/Duo Queue and trust me, the purists on the team have to be convinced this is a net positive for the overall playerbase before we keep this change.

Hmmm.

And it's not like this was a one-off comment, either. This comment was directly linked in a pretty significant thread that Lyte made on the boards around two months after he said that.

HMMM.

I don't like to complain on RITO's decisions, but this is the worst shit happened to this game since i started playing in November 2010.

I want solo only que.

ConsciousBot4/25/2016, 6:05:43 AM2 votes

I agree that dynamic que is really flawed. Its annoying, be it you are playing solo against a premade 4 men or vis versa. Not to mention you only get to choose two roles. Being a support/mid main, I can't even put support or fill as one of my role picks without knowing for a fact that I will get stuck with support. Which is annoying because I can only play mid and support at a decent level that will carry my team. (I mean I went 8~2 in placements and STILL got placed in bronze, I had to lux mid myself to gold). Then, when I get to gold, I was like "yea, BET I CAN SUPPORT DECENT PLAYERS NOW" but no, playing all (but one match) as support, I go down from 100lp at gold2 to 12lp at gold3. Just because I can never get mid and am stuck supporting bad players who blame their jg. I guess that I'm gonna take support out of my role choices now...... amd wait... what about the ranked games I play with my friends so that I can play the role I actually want? THATS NOT POSSIBLE, BECAUSE APPARENTLY GOLD PLAYERS CANNOT TEAM UP WITH BRONZE PEOPLE. should have left ranked team untouched.... dynamic que is ruining ranked games for me. URF was fun though =_____=
