TL;DR: For players near the top of the ladder, we’re bringing back solo queue and making a number of other changes focused on competitive integrity.

Link for myself to gloat: http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/GD/JNwgrzih-qa-about-dynamic-queues-and-new-champ-select?comment=001b000000000000

Ranked may actually be worth coming back to in 2017, I look forward to seeing how the changes play out

Yeah, Diamond+ will get back solo/duo queue. Congrats to the top 1.88%. What about the rest of us? I guess they figure we will all shut up about it as long as the pros and youtubers are happy.

when did riot say it works or high elo???

High elo is where all the trouble has been, low elo has had many of its issues solved

i think you might wanna look up what "deceit" actually means. It would've been pretty ridiculous to come up with these changes in a short amount of time. Especially with all the other stuff on their backs. You're implying that they didn't change things intentionally.

League Community: gives Riot hell for ruining ranked

Riot: makes ranked slightly better

League Community: "HAHA RITO IZ SO DUM SEE GUYS WE WERE RIGHT HAHAHAHAHA FUCKING RIOT GIVE IT ALL TO US YOU'RE SO STOOPID LETS GLOAT ABOUT EVERYTHING INSTEAD OF THANKING RIOT AND BEING DECENT HUMAN BEINGS"

The Boards (and you) in a nutshell

Edit: And for the record, I support solo queue 100%, just not the dignified asses that like to beat dead horses instead of acknowledging steps in the right direction

DQ doesn't work in general...

By this I mean the 4 man premades and 3 man premade, solos and duos are ok, if you want teamplay then just update the team ranks for buddas sake.

I hope it's worth it when only the top small % are putting their equally small $ into the fading company, and only the same small % give a flip about the fading "e-sport"...... congratulations on becoming the NEW heroes of newerth, roflcopter.
