DYNAMICQ IS BROKEN. PLEASE FIX THE DUO SYSTEM.

Why am I one game getting put with Gold 5s and Silver 1s then next game I'm where I'm supposed to be? (Plat 4, 3, etc) This is becoming really annoying and why I don't like playing ranked.

I climbed to Platinum for a reason. Not to be just thrown back into Gold 5. It's so frustrating when you go from decent teams to just people who don't understand the game at all and somewhat mechanics. It's especially frustrating FOR SOLOQ PLAYERS LIKE ME.

Here's just an example. These games happened one after the other. http://i.imgur.com/2ceMNg4.png

Then here's where I should be. http://imgur.com/BcQOLjr

I lost the first game and won the second.

DynamicQ should ONLY ALLOW YOU TO DUO WITH PEOPLE IN YOUR DIVISION. For example. Bronze can only duo with bronze, etc. Because there are high plats duoing with Gold 5s and I'm pretty sure that's the reason I'm getting thrown into these low MMR games.

Just so sick of it. It happens more often than not.

Rant over. Call me salty if you want, cause I am. It needs to be fixed.

You pretty much answered your own question. The matchmaking most likely considers a team MMR based on individual MMR.

What if a bronze player have a master friend and they decide to duo. How should the matchmaking work in this case if not using their average?

The system is beyond f*d up and that is the reason individual MMR should be separated from team MMR thus having a soloQ and separate premade queue.

Any opinions?

It looks like the system saw someone in placements and decided to match them vs a silver on your team. Unfortunately, a quick look at na.op.gg shows that person got placed into Gold 4. Oops.

tbh, if I had to guess, I would say you are getting matched vs lower ranked players because you are on a hard losing streak and your MMR is tanking. You might want to just chill a bit and play some no-stress normals. Try out a new champ or something. Reset.
