Too easy to ask a friend on a smurf to boost you for the critical games. It's just a distortion of ranked. At least force people to play the most important games alone.

But then you still get the self-proclaimed smurf account players, regardless. It doesn't resolve a purpose, it just bottlenecks it. It also would just add more needless frustration with the community.

I don't think Ranked should have Duo. I think it should just be SoloQ. If not then make a separate thing for Duo if people like it so much. Remove this gay Flex BS and separate SOloQ and DuoQ

While we're at it, we should make it possible so that people can queue with four people for ranked.

Oh, and Teemo should have a Unicorn skin.

Right, it only makes sense. Makes more sense than mixing a "soloQ" with DuoQ. Is it really SoloQ if it isn't? That's all I am saying.

The problem is, There is potentially 5 different ranked modes that could be added to the system, if we were to be realistic on that sort of level. But it simply isn't the case, and pure solo queue just does not sound fun. If it weren't for the friends I occasionally queue up with, I honestly can't imagine myself having the patience to last as long as I have with ranked.

It's not called solo queue though, it's called solo/duo queue.

I'm really curious how you think a queue for only duos would work in a game with 5 people on each team.

Logic.

It's really dumb the game aggregates flex and solo/duo games too for winrates. That's actually so silly.
