[Unpopular opinion] I have no problems at all with Dynamic Queue.

I really don't. Pitch my thread either way, upvoted or downvoted, but here's what I've experienced personally, not what theoretically could happen.

  1. I queue solo a large percent of the time. I am almost never placed with or against a 4-man premade. By "almost never," I mean maybe once or twice since it has been released. And even then, the premades were by no means at all toxic. I remember one 4-man I was queued with very well. They were an incredible team and I felt like I fit right in with them. I even added a couple after the match. Sometimes 3-man's happen, and almost always there's a duo team (as expected), but I've never really had any issues with winning because of or losing due to "stacked teams."

  2. Some other premade groups were toxic, but most of them weren't. Honestly it doesn't matter if you're in solo queue or dynamic queue, toxic players will exist and they will ruin your games. However, just because some people decide to group up and play as a group does not mean they're out to get you.

  3. I enjoy being able to queue with a couple of my friends. Sometimes we just like to get together on Skype and try to climb together. Is that wrong? We're by no means a part of that "toxic" stereotype the boards wants to push people to believe. And you know what I've noticed? When I queue with three other people on rare occasions, making us the "dreaded toxic 4-man premade," no matter how welcoming my friends and I try to be to the solo guy, the one guy who's not in the group is often spiteful of us and spews virile nonsense at us at how we should be ashamed we make the game a worse place for other players. But like I said, that's what I expect, because regardless of what your fantasy queue seems like, mean players exist everywhere. So it's no big deal.

  4. Even in the very, very, very rare event that a full solo team / mixed bag team goes against a 4-man or 5-man premade and we lose because of that, I'll take that loss, because it's so incredibly rare at my elo (mid Gold) that one loss is no biggie for me since I know that one single loss won't toss my MMR into the trash. Losses happen. Oh well.

Vote however you please. Or don't at all. I don't care one way or the other, but I figured I'd get my opinion out there just for fun. :)

I honestly think most people are complaining about the system because it doesn't allow them to pick their own role every single time with no exception. People in low elo just don't seem to be willing to learn how to play more than one style or refuse to play anything that isn't [insert "main" here]. I think it's healthy, though; people should have more than one champion and more than one role in their arsenal. I hate getting stuck with insta-lock Yasuos that refuse to flex even though there's not a single knockup on our team. It makes working with your team comp an easier decision.
