SoloQ and DynamicQ

Sans Hama··3 votes·523 views

Hey guys!

First off I won't lie, I'm an inexperienced league player, i started playing on and off a while ago, and only recently really gotten into this game. What i see a lot of now especiallly on the forums is that players are complaing about DynamicQ and how SoloQ is so much better as they bash riot.

A lot of you guys get fed up with the fact that everyone seems to like SoloQ and everyone hates dynamic, and that despite what riot says, you guys are the majority. And I'm kinda fed up with that.

I really enjoy DynamicQ, getting into a ranked game with some friends, playing hard and winning feels great, and honestly i find less trolls because my party are all solid players.

Its Draven me crazy that you guys all think that everyone hates it and wants soloQ. And though it is true, you guys are hardcore, experienced, committed and talented league players. But i feel like you guys dont represent most of the community, a lot of which isn't on the forums.

Thanks for reading!

thing is, you doing well with your team doesn't show what you personally can do, for anyone knows, you are basically getting carried. this makes problems since ranked is suppose to be where you see your skill level is at. even if you don't join a team, you might be given a premade of 4 people that work really well and are better than the other team because of that, so that's not even solo Q. you basically don't get any idea how well you can do with random people and basically on your own since you get placed with premade groups almost no matter what.

if you were to basically to get diamond, plat, or even gold, nothing shows that you could get that on your own, and that's what people want, a way to show their skill and not a system that shows you can form a team and work better together, or get lucky with some teams and generally just work well with them. there isn't a system in place right now like there use to be.

people also feel cheated since riot said they would bring it back, then said they wouldn't. they basically stole it from the players solo Q since people had it, and now they don't.

they are bring back ranked 5's, which is a good step since that was another problem.

So wouldn't you prefer to play in ranked 5's then? Then you don't have ANY dirty randoms on your team to mess you up or be crap. Hell, you can play ranked 3v3 if you can't seem to find a full ranked team for some odd reason.

DQ is great for a VERY narrowly specific group of players. Players who love playing ranked, have more than one friend they can play with... but not a full team.. and who don't want to play treeline. And to make this narrow group of people happy, they have put solo players (the majority of ranked players, I'd imagine) at a sizable disadvantage and given them a sharp hit in the quality of the game. The game is literally against them in nearly every respect and there is NO up side to the mode for solo players.

Now I'm sure you love the system that gives you perks and takes nothing away... just like I'm certain a child would love being handed candy and asked to do nothing in return for it. It is however, shitting on the game for a lot of other people and has a bunch of negative effects on the game's competitive side as well. The simple fact is, these flaws FAR outweigh that this narrow group of people are having more fun. Well, them, boosters and the people getting boosted... but they're part of the problem. For every non-booster enjoying the queue there are probably 10 solo players that it's ruining the game for. A lot of them are leaving the game over it.

It's not only an awful idea, it's literally hurting the game as a whole.
