What does flex queue do?

Will it place me in a higher rank after I play my 10 placement games in season 7? Or does playing flex queue right now do nothing?

It practically does nothing if you're a solo player. Because if you are, you'll be playing soloq. Flex q is just a new version of dynamic q. It's for players who want to play with friends in ranked. And every time you do placements, you'll always have a lower rank than you had before.

That's how MMR works.

Games played in flex queue during preseason will have a small impact on your starting flex queue mmr when you go to do your ranked flex queue placements when the season starts.

Games played in flex queue will have no impact on your ranked solo/quo queue mmr.

Me and my friend are duo together and we play ranked. If we want to play with another friend does that affect our solo/duo rank? Can someone explain what flex is?
