The worst thing about not having a solo queue is...

That unless your opponents are dumb enough to all join the same club and advertise it, you have no way of knowing whether they're queued as a group or not.

I'm getting so sick of these games where either the whole enemy team or just two or three individuals are probably queued together because they're working so cohesively as a unit that it just wouldn't make sense for them to be random solo players. Yet, this still happened sometimes before Dynamic queue, and there are players that I've asked in game / after game if they were queued together and they'll deny it.

Yet it feels so strongly like you're not getting outplayed by individuals but instead by queues. Like when you're winning your lane, and mid is going even, and somehow the enemy mid laner just ends up camping your lane even though he doesn't have a lead. Like that stuff typically doesn't happen in solo queue (most solo mids won't sacrifice 3 waves of XP and farm to sit in your bush after killing you and wait for you to come back to lane). It COULD happen, but every time it does, we're going to be blaming dynamic queue because, well, it's the more likely and easier to accept case. Or like when every gank bot lane is 4 or 5 people - that doesn't typically happen in solo queue because the jungler decides when to gank on his own... yet when it does happen you're going to blame dynamic queue.

So, I ask: Can we please have indicators for what players are queued together on BOTH teams during champion select and loading screen and in game?

They have enough of an advantage the way it is, I think you deserve to know your lane is going to get camped because the enemy jungler is queued with your lane opponent. I think you deserve to know that you're going to have to go off on a huge kill streak to carry against a 5 man premade. I think you deserve to know what they know already.
