Why lots of people are quitting league

For me i think league just isn't fun when you are playing solo queue. It only gets fun when you play with friends, sometimes not even. In solo queue there are too many people trolling and just stealing lanes and other stuff too. You guys have to fix this people want to play league and its just not fun with trolls. Ban those trolls or something at least give them a punishment. Its not fun with them trolling and reporting them and they get away with it. Fix this riot.

I think they've all just burnt out. Typically they're the sorts that play competitively for hours at a time.

but then when you play with friends, especially where your friend is not Gold... it gets EXPONENTIALLY harder to win.

Like you need at least 2 Golds (assuming you yourself are Gold) to make sure the game is playable.

1 Gold and 1 Bronze/low Silver from my experience, is MASSIVE CURBSTOMP either for or against you (absolutely nothing you can do and you as the Gold, are expected to do all the killing).

1 Gold and 2+ Bronze/low Silvers... literally unwinnable. You'll win the lucky game here and there but match-making is just insane.

2 Gold and 2+ Bronze/low Silvers... its doable.

2 Gold and 3+ Bronze/low Silver... back to the the 1 Bronze/low Silver effect.

3+ Golds... LITERAL SUICIDE (you'll be fighting literal high Plats).

...

Not to mention, when playing with friends of lower MMR... you must always Try Hard. You can't go Zed, Jhin, Riven etc and try to test mechanics.

No, its got to be Vladimir, Miss Fortune, Viktor etc...

Your solo queue rank has no effect on which people you get to play against when you're doing norms with your friends.

it might for me because I aways really Try Hard in normals too so my normals MMR is quite close to my ranked one I would say.

I'd say I spend as much as 85% of my games on my top 7 champions...

Trust me, it isn't. Not for me, not for you either. There's no exceptions, the MMR for norms, flex and solo queue are separate.

My other account is Plat 3 in both flex and soloq right now and when I play norms I get matched with similar players, ranging from high gold to diamond. When I play norms on this account i get into games with a lot of silver players, sometimes there's even a bronze player or two - and that is simply because I don't play a whole lot of normals on this account. If I played them more my MMR would most likely increase and I'd get to play against better players.

People tend to leave when their favorite champion takes a hit they think they can't recover from and don't want to have to spend weeks learning a new champion only to have it happen again (in short they dont want to be meta'slaves).

It's happening more at the moment because riot have started doing blanket nerfs to large groups of champions to fix their previous mistakes from previous blanket changes. The bigger the changes, the more mistakes that they didn't foresee, the the more changes they implement to fix this, the more mistakes they didn't foresee, etc etc etc. Notice that the timescale for these patches is still 2 weeks but the content is much larger?
