Solo play vs full 5 play (not a rant)

redfeenix··2 votes·411 views

There are many discussions about solo q, but I thought id leave my two cents.

Players are protesting the lack of a fair game.

I love queueing with 5 friends. This is the best way to play league. Communication improves my gameplay a lot. We can collapse faster , do tp plays etc etc. It's a lot of fun !!!

Now this way different than solo play. I'm way more disadvantaged solo. I would get rekt if I was solo and played vs the same teams.

Solo players can, and do win games vs teams. But fundamentally it's not fair for them from the start. Teamwork is a huuuuuge factor in this game !

The game can be improved by recognizing 5v5 gameplay is Totally different experience than solo q. I love both, but solo and team players shouldn't face each other.

I just want a fair and balanced rank experience. Just like heroes has 2 rank ratings (hero league and team league) I think so should lol

Any opinions? I love both game modes honestly :)

Suggestion: Should we split into 2 ranked modes Like Heroes of the Storm. 1 mode for full 5s. the other mode for solos, duos , (maybe trios (?) ?

I agree. They shouldn't allow a 4man dynamic queue for this reason and focus on getting a trio and duo paired, or just have it as a traditional 5v5.

I hate playing solo with a 4man queue because they do their own thing and usually never ping. It's frustrating

Ah you're comming from a different angle. What happens when the premade is your teammate, instead of if the premade is the enemy.

Good point dude, that would be annoying af, but what if you and 3 friends wanted to play? would you be happy if rito said "sry 4 is the number of death you cant q with 4 people"

It would be disappointing, but then we'd just hop into normals instead of doing a dynamic queue

If your argument is not about Ranks, then it applies just as well in Normals. It's just as frustrating in Normals when the 4-man do their own thing and never ping.

I would argue that it's less frustrating in normals because it's normals. Ranked is more frustrating with a 4-man because solo players become disadvantaged from the lack of communication
