THE REAL PROBLEM OF DYNAMIC QUEUE

LOOK AT THE AVERAGE TIER/DIVISION DIFFERENCE.

Dynamic queue creates unfair matchmaking, where the team with a premade gets matched against higher MMR players. So if I am a solo player, I HAVE TO RELY ON MY STUPID PREMADE TO MAKE UP FOR THE DISADVANTAGE THEY BRING.

IN OTHER WORDS. CAN'T. CARRY. GAMES. AS A SOLO PLAYER.

BECAUSE YOU ARE STUCK WITH PREMADES WHO ARE BELOW YOUR MMR AND THE ENEMY TEAM IS HIGHER MMR ON AVERAGE HENCE THE AVERAGE SKILL GAP

RIOT, HOW DOES THIS EVEN MAKE SENSE? [zombie-brand-mindblown]

It's the good old "I don't want a bot duo on my team" problem, except it's worse.

And yet you are going to punish the premades more? So the solo players on their team can suffer? I don't even care if the enemy team is a premade, please remove this unfair MMR handicap so that games are fair.

If they don't MMR inflate premades, then matches are tilted toward a stomp in favor of the premade. Riots own data shows that premade still win a disproportionate number of matches so the MMR boost isn't enough yet.

This is the inherent flaw with mixing solos and groups in a competitive matchmaker. It should never have been done. It should have been limited to normal matches as the tradeoff for a more consistent and fair competitive atmosphere in ranked.

And the problem with trying to compensate for the potential advantages of premades, is you are then discouraging/punishing people who play with random people they meet in games, rather than their normal partners.

It's just a bad system all around
