Solo Superiority V Group Superiority

SKIP TO BOTTOM FOR SUMMARY


Solo V Multi is not about which mode is better, recognize that they are different!

And not in a "I'm a lone wolf, I must do this alone for my family's honor", they are literally two different games and Summoners Rift has never done solo play justice. You pray for non-bullshit team mates and now you pray for non-bullshit match making, it's the same bullshit, going back to solo Q solves nothing.

Solo team player has several issues that can NEVER be fixed:

  • 1-4 don't know how to play at your bracket
  • 1-4 don't know how to co-operate
  • 1-4 don't know how to communicate
  • 1-4 don't know how to keep their fucking cool
  • 1-4 are trolls

So what if you can do those points flawlessly, how many of your team mates can?

So Riot doesn't actually have a choice about Solo play in a Group setting, if a solo Q kind of thing returns it's not going to be 5 humans vs 5 humans, it will be 1 filthy human vs another filthy human possibly with or without robot overlords.

Will Summoners Rift be its map? Who the fuck knows, but until then understand a solo player game does not work with multiplayer rules.

solo queue, while not ideal, is a statistically valid (all sample sets, i.e. games, have the same probability of trolls/ragers/AFKs/smurfs/carries appearing) and thus a valid ranking.

dynamic queue is not a statistically valid ranking because not all games are equal.

incorrect

soloqueue gives you a better chance of getting trolls and ragers simply because you won your last game.

there is no such thing in dynamic queue, if you failed to acquire 4 teammates then you have nobody to blame but yourself. If your teammates are not up to par again you can only blame yourself
