tbh Clash Royale has a higher chance to take away the LoL's community than HotS.

SaiannaMay 21, 20161 votes

Clash Royale? haven't heard of that hmm

I know that pain. I legit had a guy argue with me over me not playing a single game since S2, I transferred my account in S2.

SaljinMay 23, 20161 votes

atleast some people do their research.

You dare disagree with forum whiners. I shall smite thee with down votes.

Question is, have you seen improvements that stem from Dynamic Queue or New Champion Select?

LankPantsMay 21, 20163 votes

New champ select yes, it's good to know what role you're playing and great for people like me who can't play bot for shit. It's also good for my team because they don't have to deal with me bot.

As for DQ, hell no. It's the sole reason I no longer play ranked.

New champ select and DQ don't have to be linked at the hip though. It's entirely possible to have new champ select in SQ.

Agreed. I think it's disingenuous and, frankly, irresponsible of Riot to have released both DQ and NCS together. It's basically impossible to pull relevant data about which parts players prefer and which could use work, because the two systems are being conflated and billed as a package.

Yeah new champ select is great!

It sucks that people talk about DQ and New Select as if it's the same thing.

SaljinMay 23, 20161 votes

i noticed the improvement in dynamic, the champ select is a different thing i know. and apperently many people downvote because i think dynamic que is great.

Sum Wun SpeshalMay 21, 20164 votes

god forbid that you have your own opinion.

As soon as someone says he likes Dynamic Queue, he gets downvoted to hell and once the comment is masked, the next thread will say "EVERYBODY HATES DYNAMIC QUEUE".

pathetic.

SaljinMay 23, 20161 votes

indeed, but i don't really mind i like dynamic que and played it as solo and premade. i see no reason in the hate, ofcourse you see a bad premade once in a while but for me that happened once since dynamic que was launched. i had more problems with the soloq duo premades who were flaming. and i see people complaining about dynamic que with less than 10 ranked games, normal hasn't changed.

Sum Wun SpeshalMay 23, 20161 votes

I should do that as well. Next time I see one of those threads I'll check OP's profile.

Action OrcMay 20, 20164 votes

I don't understand the problem with Dynamic Queue, I've gotten to Gold 5 no problem with a lot of pre-mades, I might have just gotten lucky. :/
Still, I can just ask premades if I can join their group politely, most might respond with a no that is neither polite or rude. I have gotten into a few to play a couple ranked.

Cheers!

It's a matter of the same group of forums trolls who claim to represent the whole of league of legends spamming the forums. According to them not only does everyone hate Dynamic Queue , everyone also agrees it's a tank , mage , assassin , adc , ninja barbie meta.

General Esdeath May 21, 20164 votes

I'd rather not have my ranked games decided by which team gets the better pre-made.

ModAcademy KaynMay 21, 20163 votes

But you'd rather have your ranked games decided on which team has the least amount of Trolls?

Dextix LTMay 21, 20162 votes

They have lesser impact on the game.

The enemy has a higher chance to get them (It is important because afk, feeders and trolls will never be positive for the team unlike premades).

And they get banned because those behaviours are not ok with the rules.

So yea, i will rather have chances of getting trolls than my game being decided by premades.

FiskMay 21, 20161 votes

Except the chances of a good vs. bad premade is equal for each solo player. Furthermore, its really not like you can't win if they have a premade. Solo carrying is still possible. The game just requires a lot more co-ordination and team work from solo players than it did before. The only real issue I have is that they made the game much more team oriented, and then didn't give us enhanced chat (such as in game voice comms).

General Esdeath May 21, 20161 votes

No, I've had 2 premades of 2 on my team and they had a premade of 5. Guess who had coordinated ganks in all 3 lanes?

FiskMay 21, 20161 votes

And this is a problem, but also this is a very edge case, and 99.9% of your games probably won't be like this in all fairness. Losses like this really won't stop you from climbing. They are more just occasional and annoying, like getting an afk. I think the benefits of the system outweigh THIS specific problem (there are other issues though).

General Esdeath May 21, 20161 votes

This exact one? Only twice, but I've had several games (usually promos) in which there's a 4 man premade and I have a 2 man premade. So yeah, it is stopping me from climbing.

Action OrcMay 23, 20161 votes

I appreciate all your feedback! But I do hope that everyone will be happy with LoL in months or years, just wishing it doesn't turn out like WoW (I know its not the same genre, just comparing the play rate and player base etc.)

General Esdeath May 23, 20161 votes

I don't think it can be only because our levels cap at 30. And new things added in are free (Only pay if you want them faster) except for skins.

General Esdeath May 21, 20161 votes

I've had premade trolls, so yeah I'd rather worry about one troll that I know I can get banned.

BeatzBoyFTWMay 21, 20163 votes

I don't get it. What does HOTS have that LoL doesn't?

BeatzBoyFTWMay 21, 20162 votes

No, I'm serious. I don't even know wtf is going on -_-

Supreme Senpai69May 21, 20161 votes

Ignore the downvote fairies.

They had dynamic queue and switched it to solo queue. So people want League to do the same

MisterSkiMay 21, 20163 votes

Short answer from RITO: No! Fuck you soloq players!

What they actually type: While we here at riot games are very in touch with our player base, we will keep working on dynamic queue to get the best experience out of it for our players. That being said dynamic queue should be the better way for our game to head.

Doctor DymentMay 21, 20161 votes

Well, Heroes of the Storm is a horrifying train wreck of a game, so Riot'd better not copy anything off of them.

General Esdeath May 21, 20167 votes

Except they copied DQ from them. HOTS now has solo queue.

They copied Dynamic. Guess League of Legends is a horrifying train wreck.

Supreme Senpai69May 21, 20161 votes

.....Well, you're not ENTIRELY wrong...

League is just a fun train wreck. Sometimes. More like an addicting train wreck.

Doctor DymentMay 21, 20161 votes

A single thing taken, does not a train wreck make. Heroes of the Storm started out as an interesting concept, but in classic Blizzard fashion after a while it started to go down hill.
