@Riot, Can We Not Get Pared With Dynamics When We Q Solo?

I just enjoyed the wonderful experience of being the "odd man out" in ranked q. Got into champ select and they all have the same Tag. I first picked kled, but since they were all q'ed up as friends they went for the troll experience and picked whatever they wanted. We were in desperate need of a tank, so our support picks brand, cuz hey they are buddies they dont care. So, in this team game, there is no teamwork at all already from champion select.

We get into game and i go tank kled since they decided not to pick accordingly to what we needed. All game they flame me. I end 10/3/10. They all were about 3/9/3 or 3/7/5.

Game ends and they all report me because the support did more damage than me. Mind you it was a brand support who build ap and i was forced to go tanky regardless of me first picking and trying to get a team composition in champion select. How is this even fair? I didnt ask or even want to be grouped with these guys. Now since it appears the amount of people who report you in a game correspond with disciplinary action, how do i combat a dynamic group of trolls?

Look guys, im not trying to be just another guy who is crying about dynamic. I think the idea is actually really cool, however it really stinks when you are a solo player. Just give us the option to choose what groups we get into, Duo and Solo groups or Anything Goes groups. I dont care if i get a duo on my team, im just tired of all the groups of trolls who come in and ruin my game experience and then report the random guy on the team (usually me because I almost always play solo q) for fun.

Honestly League has started feeling like less of a Come Together-Carry Each Other-Team Game, and more of a One Man Army-Solo Carry Your Team-Auto Mute Everyone kind of game.

Cheers for reading, please comment as i would like a reply from Riot on their thoughts.

If you didn't do anything wrong, the system will throw out their reports without even looking at them further and make the group's reports worth less in the future. Additionally, reports by a premade always count as one report regardless of how many of them report you, specifically to avoid any kind of abuse like that.

And knowing is half the battle.

(Also, I'm really confused about where people got this idea that "more reports = ban for the player without any actual consideration of their actions". The system actually checks chat logs for toxicity reports and things like intentional feeding and trolling are probably manually checked since they're more difficult to determine with an automated system)

Rejoice, my brother, for Riot has answered our prayers. Solo/duo queue will return season 7...for the top 1.88% (diamond+). So quit your job now so you can practice league all day every day to make it to the top 1.88% so you too can enjoy a competitive ranked game.

No, actually, you need to be matched with groups sometimes. Dynamic queue dies without the ability to fill in the gaps with solos.
