How come people flame flex rank so much? it is a good mode.
Last night i hit platinum 2 in flex queue. i don't play with team mates ever, i am always going solo. i was really proud of myself as i did it myself. but no one gave a single shit that i reached it, because it wasn't done in solo q. this really frustrated me as it is the same map, and pick and ban phase. why do people refuse to acknowledge flex ranks. i know platinum 2 isn't the most impressive rank.
i can honestly tell you why flex is more worth it than solo q.
- flex has a much higher tolerance for players who are slacking the reason to this is players in flex are just people who are playing for fun in a more serious attitude.
- flex has much less toxicity in flex queue no one is harassing as majority of players are in a call of their own, if they flame its because someone is trolling (from what ive seen)
- there is a bigger skill cap in lower ranks gold in flex queue can bring players from silver in solo q all the way to platinum players
- games are won with team work in solo q everyone often relies on the hyper carries to do all the work, but in flex more people are fine with sacrificing themselves as its easier to understand that these people can work together much easier.
overall, i hope flex queue gets light shined upon it just because it is a much more professional version of league of legends. thank you for reading.
