This is the reason why DQ was not a huge success, instead of downvoting can you just post a reply?

It does not seem like it is ledgit, it does not seem like your rankings determine how good you are...

BUT!

Neither did SOLOQ, soloQ did not do the job of determining how good you are because this is a MOBA, so DQ was an UPGRADE to soloQ but the question on the legitimacy of DQ in terms of rankings is still in question... and that's why many people feel disenfranchised..

Remove DQ and we get soloQ and leagues problems persist

Keep DQ: let time pass by to see how DQ can be optimized and provide a better satisfaction and legitimacy with most players, but for now it's a slight mess, to be honest DQ is better than soloQ but only slightly, the issues are still there.

SO THE REAL QUESTION IS: WHAT CAN RIOT DO (US TELLING THEM) TO IMPROVE DQ? Post ideas here.

for me: improve the order pick's chances, right now you have an 80% chance of getting support main role, for mid it's about 55% and that's a HUGE problem, that's how you disenfranchise players and make them hate DQ, other than that i dont have much of a problem with DQ, perhaps ranking needs to be improved too.. post your ideas
