Where is the argument FOR dynamic queue?

Since the beginning of the season I've seen easily 20-30 threads and well over 200 posts from players talking about how frustrating ranked is as a solo player going against 3/4 man premades; and how invalid and meaningless ranked matches are now due to the possibility of 4 gold scrubs being carried to plat or higher by one master/challenger player getting everyone on voice comms only to leave the 4 gold scrubs to feed or just stop playing ranked once they reach their desired MMR.

However, I have yet to see even one post from anyone who fully supports dynamic queue over solo queue.

The only way dynamic queue would be fun to play would be to change that 5% chance of having solo players vs premades drop to a 0% chance. Even then I don't see why my MMR I work for all on my own should be compared in the same ranks of people who only play as 4 man groups using voice comms when their group actually contains 1 diamond player carrying his bronze/silver/etc friends using a smurf account.

It really just doesn't make sense to me. And hearing riot say "trust us when we say dynamic queue is a better experience" pisses me the fuck off when my personal experience is that dynamic queue has ruined ranked for me.

Yeah sure. I played 200+ games in your silly new dynamic queue and want nothing else but to have solo queue back... but yeah let me "trust you" that somehow dynamic is a better experience.

Riot you guys are seriously full of shit.

But thanks to how much of a failure dynamic queue is, I lost interest in grinding to diamond and instead of commiting all of my free time to improving and trying to climb I now only spend maybe 2-3 hours a day tops just fucking around in normals.

So I guess your dynamic queue does have that benefit. Of getting me to spend less time on your game. so thanks for that i guess.

That's becuase people who support it get downvoted while anyone who says SQ is good gets up votes.

SQ is dead and that a fine. Anyone who blames their rank on premades is just a bad player. That simple. High elo has not been effected by this especially now that they can only Q with people 2 divs from them.

PROOF: look at S5 stats and S6 stats and you will see D5 is still the top 1%. There aren't more players up there becuase diamonds trying to carry gold players is still hard as hell against plats.

When you go somewhere and you're satisfied with the service you generally don't say anything.

When something doesn't go how you expected it or you're angered by the service, you are more inclined to speak up and cause a problem. Think about it.

When i get matched with a 4 man premade, i know they wont afk or troll because they will hold their friends accountable. The social pressure they create on each other increases the quality of the game for me. If we lose because they are bad then that is no different from getting bad team mates in solo queue which happened anyway, but at least this way they wont troll.
