and yet implements and maintains a highly-toxicating environment and ladder for all of their players (i.e. Dynamic Queue),
where you get to play against silvers and plats in the same game!
Yeah you destroyed this season with dynamic Q. Only waiting for the next season to see if dynamic Q is scrapped, if not, goodbye league
i think they only planned on creating a separate ranked ladder for premades (so that if you play with premades it doesn't effect your individual rank) but unfortunately premades and solo players still have to play against each other...
I've been questioning Riot's decision making a lot this season
Teemo, Cassiopeia, and singed need to be punished
Yeah, but Solo Q was probably runner-up for worst online experience. Everyone just plays their own game, ignores the fact that it's a team game (in fact, a five-versus-five) and is only interested in blaming someone for their own trash, whether that's bad plays or bad picks or whatever else.
Like, yeah, I'd take my friends too if they were high rank; I know they're going to do something, initiate with me, be in place when they need to be. Obviously I want to queue with friends. Why wouldn't I?
The problem with the anti-DynaQ stance is just that the gameplay is far more enjoyable for the people with teams. Nobody likes pugs and it's not some secret myth. The sooner we admit that Solo Q wasn't some romanced fairy tale, the sooner we could actually develop a system that works.
For as long as the boards make it 'Solo VS Dyna,' they will have Dyna and not Solo. They're pleasing the greater number of players if they keep five people happy to the one complainant from the Solo Q side.
Nobody has to like the opinion. Solo Q was a terrible experience by video game standards, period, no way about it-- playing a team game with four other people who may or may not have a concept of the word 'team' is a waste of god damn time.
I'd much, much rather just bring one to four friends and that seems to be a widespread stance.
I love how they punish me for toxicity, when really my lane (bot) is innately toxic. Sometimes my lane is a 2vs1 because the enemy support or adc is braindead adn we repeatedly punish the adc for that.
Sometimes my support is braindead and I am punished. Overall, the adc not only has to play well, but he is also dependant on another person to be mentally present in the lane. Additionally, the morgana sitting in the bush is getting hard carried for free. she literally can afk and have a HUGE FUCKING PRESENCE in the lane by occupying a bush.
Fuck this entire game is toxic
Easy solution. Make ranked 5v5 premade only. Remove the possibility to queue solo. It's not like any <insert team sport here> player goes to the stadium and waits to get randomed together with 4/5/10 other people to play his game.
You want a competitive environment? That's how you get it. It will destroy ranked as we know them? It totally will, as it will hinder boosting to an extent.
It will make it impossible to solo players to get competive reward? Yes, it will, but it solves the bigger problem of toxicity. Solo players can still enjoy aram, or normals, or bots, or whatever dumb game mode gets rotated every week.
If you wanted ranked for the competition, then you'll enjoy even more. If you wanted ranked just to show off your ability with your champion... well, sucks to be you.
