My thoughts on how to fix the current Dynamic Queue

I believe that both a solo and team queue can coexist and here's why:

Solo queue: Players enter solo ranked to test** individual** skill, similar to how the old system works.

Team queue: Players can enter alone or as a group (1-5). This team queue test **teamwork **and communication. For this to work, Riot must implement a team voice chat. Players who joins no matter what combination will be able to communicate with the rest of the team through the voice chat.

I believe that there will be solo players will want to join team queue to play a game in a different perspective. A game played with voice communication and one without is a lot different from one another. There wouldn't be team chat in solo queue, this is because if solo queue also had chat it would be the same as teams queue.

This way, there will be a competitive ladder for those who go solo, those who like to play with team and also those who go solo but want to play in team games. I have seen posts about how some solo players enjoy playing in the new dynamic queue more than the old queue since there are apparently less trolls and toxicity with premades. Also, not everyone will leave the team queue to join solo queue if there is a new voice chat feature in League for it. Once implemented, a lot of people will be curious to try and many will likely enjoy playing the game with voice chat and continue playing teams queue.

Basically, league will be divided into two ranked queues, one with teamwork with everyone communicating, and one with pure individualism for the solo players.

Please leave a comment if you see a flaw in this plan or how it can be improved or if you think it will work.

Solo queue was already a test of teamwork. Also the large majority would play solo queue since if you even mentioned your team queue rank you'd instantly turn into a laughing stock.

Just went up against a 3 man with no 3 man on my side... This has happens in at least 1/4 of my games... Sorry riot but I'm not buying the 98% of the time bit... immediately tilted our mid laner... was like... it's not a big deal but the tilt factor that comes from know you're against a premade is too high. Tried my best to calm the guy down but he gave up at the 10 minute mark.
