Seriously man this is absurd...VC only for pre-made groups? They already have their own discord/teamspeak/skype....Like wtf kind of logic is this...

Like come on I need to be able to coordinate efficiently with my teammates..You don't fucking see faker using pings at Worlds...

And please before you say "Oh I don't want to hear some one screaming derp herp"...Remember you can just mute them....

I don't want to hear peoples voices in solo queue regardless

I don't want to listen to people's other music in the background.

While I don't mind music, majority of the time you barely can't make out the song and it sounds terrible.

Mute them

Always do.

I don't care if there is voice chat or not honestly. I won't barely use it.

Hold on. Let me practice my ear sundering high pitched yoodle that I can use every game for people who can just mute me but has to hear that first.

Unless, they have VC turned off entirely...

You actually do see pings a lot in pro play. Typically the basic ones (that probably are accompanied by verbal explanation), but theres plenty of pinging going on if you watch the minimap in pro play. They'll ping out wards placed among other things quite frequently.

Everyone in ranked solo is limited to no voice chat, so it's essentially fair in that regard currently.

If it was a thing, then people are stuck between dealing with the yodelers, the racists, the loud breathing people, and the random music playing people, or opting out of voice chat and being potentially at a strategic disadvantage, both of which sound like unpleasant options. (It also means people would feel pushed to actually get mics if they want to be competitive, since not everyone actually has those set up [or set up properly].)

So how do they use voice chat to coordinate with me then?

Just because someone is annoying doesn't mean they aren't still trying to communicate useful information, and they're probably not going to be pinging it if they're assuming I can hear them.

Like I said, voice chat for all puts people in a rock and a hard place situation, compared to no voice chat making for an even (and more 'solo') playing field.

If they were going to introduce voice chat for non-premades, flex queue (being the queue theoretically focused on coordinated plays) is the one that makes sense for it, not solo queue.

Blaming women, while at the same time criticizing them for feeling like they are being blamed for everything.

No im criticizing them for complaing about sexism and ruining my voicechat. Not for feeling like they are being blamed for everything.

I had forgotten about this post and showed my wife. She asked if this was the weird princess dress game (once tried to explain skins to her) that i spend too much money on and called me a weirdo lol.
