Dynamic Queue and New Champ select

I love the new champion select, it looks amazing, works as intended and removes a lot of hostility from the first 30 seconds of the game.

However, Dynamic Queue on the other hand, crushes and overshadows any gains you've made with new champion select. You've undermined the integrity of solo Q. It's greatly diminished my urge to play ranked and advance, and thus my overall interest in the game.

There's no MMR balancing that can properly attribute the advantages of having large pre-made teams. And for those of us who enjoy our solitude and quietness, it's utter destruction to the game.

Keep your Dynamic queue if you must, but separate it. If anything Duo-Q should of been removed so Solo Q could become a proper format. You've exacerbated the issue.

A personal rating becomes less and less accurate the larger a team becomes. A player who reached Diamond solo, can be heaps above a player who reached Diamond as part of a pre-made of 5. This diminishes the "prestige" of ranks. I cannot even be proud of any rank I achieve with the new system, as it's very easy to dismiss my achievements as "oh you were probably carried". Which is harmful to the environment. I want to be proud of my achievements, not have them so easily undermined.

Myself and my friends are your "older" customers, we're in our late 20s, early 30s, we have jobs, families, responsibilities. We hop on for a game or three to play by ourselves. We rarely even play together due to the amount of time waiting for one person to get out of a game eating into our play time. Group Qing is not something we want to do. We enjoy discussing the game together, and playing it alone.

Some of your players are anti-social, and that's just not a "phase", I genuinely enjoy when I play solo. I do not want to queue with friends. You're leaving me with no viable game play for your game, that I've enjoyed having previously, and I'm not sure why or which crowd you're trying to cater to that ranked 5s, or normals didn't already cater to.
