(I know this is probably going to get down-voted, but whatever.)

Though I disagree with the current direction of League of Legends, and I'm still not quite convinced, I'm really happy to see this from you guys. I offers me some perspective, and I can at least understand why Riot is doing what it's doing. A lot of people seem to blindly hate on you guys, and that's just how they are, but some of us just want some perspective for your actions. I'm at least happy that you're taking action because you think it'll improve our experience's in the end, I'd much rather that be the case than you guys taking action for yourselves. I just wanted some justification. **So thank you Riot Tryndamere. **

In the end, you still haven't convinced me, but you've proved me wrong in the past, and I really hope you can do it again. Best of luck.

-A frustrated but thankful player

Regarding Dynamic Queue vs. Solo queue, the bottom line is this: we believe we can create a competitive League of Legends experience where you can play with friends in ranked play and have deep ways to measure and compare individual skill on a relative basis with other players. We know we haven't accomplished the individual skill part yet with the current implementation of Dynamic Queue. We are working on many different things to accomplish this, not simply trying to improve dynamic queue. We think the real solution we are going for is far broader than that and requires multiple other systems. In other words, Dynamic Queue is a start, not the end state. This will take us some time to keep iterating through and developing all of the complimentary features, but we believe in the teams vision and capabilities to make this happen.

.... damn, they are trying so hard to be the next JAGEX. Doesn't matter if you come up with a solution couple of years after this, people have already moved on at that point.

Then it's too late to rectify your mistakes. Majority of the people ain't coming back.

Ironically when he said that it "requires multiple other systems", they have actively tried to reduce these other systems by removing them completely, instead of doing the exact opposite and giving people more options.
