Dynamic Queue is complete garbage and should be removed and replaced immediately

Because...

  1. In mid-upper diamond, you are ALWAYS matched with or against premades. When matched with premades, you have virtually no input into game decisions and are almost always flamed at/blamed when a game is lost. When matched against premades, you simply cannot unify your team and communicate on the same level as people who know e/o and have voice comms. Also, you have absolutely no way of anticipating the presence of premades. Since you play differently vs premades and solo players, you basically go into each game blind.

  2. Teams are ALWAYS STACKED at mid-upper diamond. I've literally played games with d5's and challengers while in d2. Games like this are a complete joke and almost always end in a 20-0 open mid.

  3. Queue times are 4-5 times longer. Ever wait 30 minutes to play support? I have.

  4. Whenever people who typically play in premades choose to play solo, you're basically stuck with or against a boosted player.

Seriously, WHY HAS THIS GONE ON FOR SO LONG? I've seen myself and other people who finished in master tier last season get pushed down to mid diamond simply because we SOLO QUEUE. Yet people with gold borders are now the new diamond players because they abuse dynamic queue? ADMIT YOUR FAILURE RIOT, FOR THE GOOD OF US ALL.

Riot Lyte was already fired like a dog for devising this garbage system (Don't believe it when he says he 'left'. He could never find a job at a real company -- and he knows it!). Go back while you can, Riot. Even the failed game HotS went to solo queue!

So here is the problem. Your number three, wait times, are a direct result of not a lot of Diamond players being on at the time to make a full team and so causes your number one, stuck with or against premades, which if also are absent causes your number two, playing against high diamonds to challenger.

So to fix the wait times you are paired with what ever is available. To fix the paired would increase wait times (to most likely hours). So the problem is you can't fix one without causing the other.

So what is the answer? I have some ideas, but without some data could be completely wrong as well

With what? How are you suppose to be paired with other diamond 2 if there are no other diamond 2 on? Removing it doesn't fix the problem if there isn't a replacement and a replacement can't be made unless the reason for it being bad are identified. You can sling around insults all you want, but you are just making yourself the fool thinking that Riot is secretly hiding the resolution just to torment you. As for me, I tried explaining it very cordially and even went so far as asking you what you think could be a resolution so we together might be able to think of a resolution. But I'm sorry, I cannot back someone who complains about something that they themselves care not to even think for a second about how to fix it. Down voting the main post. If you wish to politely discuss resolutions I'll take it back, but dont be the scarecrow.

Wow, found the rage monster with only the ability to sling insults. Look, I get you are good, and probably better than I'll ever be, but you are kidding yourself if you think skill in game equals ability to make and balance said game. I really would like to workout a solution, but its obvious that you're oblivious to what it takes to do that, and I am sorry that you can't even open your mind to that. In fact, you are probably reading this as if I am raging back, but I'm not. You see, I have that ability, and based on your last post I'm rereading this as you are looking at it. It's really sad to see that you can't even calm yourself for a second to talk to someone who would like to help. C'ie la vie, I hope you the best and that Riot can find the answer, if not for your sake then for the others that are having the same issue.

In another life, we could have been brothers.

Good thing most people aren't in diamond.

damn someone salty.... That being said I do believe high elo struggles the most from dynamic queue. I wish Riot would publish the numbers with actual statistics comparing dynamic queue and solo queue. I personally wish they would bring solo queue back as well.

Locking this discussion as it devolved into harassment and insults without any other contributions.
