How does Dynamic Q Boosting Actually work?

I mean, ive played with friends and done terribly. Personally, I think its because we were q'd up and not using skype or anything. I think that there is some abuse of DQ and its not 5man vs 5 Solo's. Its just 5 ppl on voice coms vs 5 ppl using just chat and pings to coordinate and thats whats boosing ppl.

Its not the fact that you are w friends. THats a good thing we can all agree. Its not the 5 man vs 5 Solos. We might disagree there, but I dont think that 5 gold V players who know each other are any better at the game than 5 gold V players who dont know each other.

On the other hand. We all know that 5 gold V players using voice com's increase their skill level dramatically because the support knows that everyone is ready for him to dive and he wont die for nothing. Everyone can also hear each other's tone and so chat doesnt seem toxic when its really not. SO they also get tilted less.

I think if Rito doesnt implement Voice Comms before they re-implement SoloQ, then they are making a mistake. I understand the argument for being afraid of voice coms. And I understand if you might want to use that as a second to last resort, but I do hope they develop some computer audition to filter toxicicty and give it a try.

Maybe a text box can pop up and ask you if you want someone muted if it detects really high volume and curse words. That can be part of behavior modification.

*Hopefully this thread doesnt get modded. It has some player behavior stuff, but belongs in gameplay imo..

Dynamic boosting isn't about voice coms. It has more to do with your diamond friend going on a silver account and boosting 4 of his silver friends to gold.

I guess the difference is that he can boost more ppl per account? He could do it before with duo q obviously.

Correct me if I am wrong but I thought that gold and lower was like 60% of the player base. But if everyone has a diamond friend that will waste his time leveling his main account to help out his friends get to a higher ranking would there no longer be anyone is silver and gold. Because it is so easy to do and everyone has these types of friends right?
