everyone already mentioned how 4 man premade is shit. What about 5 man premade? everybody in diamond+ will just play with a team, how can you even play if you are alone? you will wait 30 min like we used to do in dota 2. Eventually there will be only teams that play together to get challenger while it's called the freaking SOLOQ, i doubt you will even be able to play, did riot wanted the players to be banned from soloQ?
james1212342 votesYeah i dont get how they will balance the solo players and the team players since its pretty obvious you can more easily rank up playing as a team even as a worse player as long as you are coordinated. I guess it will be balanced into shit players/ good players/and players who play ranked 5's in "solo" que.

no, balance isn't a problem. 5 man premade will faces 5 man premade the problem is that high elo people will only play 5 man prmade and you won't be able to play alone except if you wait 15 min
james1212341 votesyes but think about it this way. you have either 3-4 players that are really good and two other players that just fit what the team needs and makes it work. These players get to challenger together in "solo que" right? so what happens when they play solo and are actually the worse players and belong way lower elo than they are? what happens when people who play as a team technically can get elo boosted super high elo? (ive played ranked teams with shitters and got them way higher elo than they deserve so yes it happens ALOT) So now we get super unbalanced teams unless they only play as a team 24/7 or unless they carry their buddy back up after he loses every game while playing solo/duo? If you think people didnt belong in the right elo and games were unbalanced as hell before I 100% guarantee this will be 100x worse. just realized I didnt clarify it doesnt have to be challenger and elo can have players boosted there by their friends and then tank elo when playing solo.

i completly agree
Teémò1 votesdon't look at it as a bad thing though. Alot of people enjoy playing games together and in team builder that's general how it goes as far as skill difference, but now you know what you are getting playing with friends, will it change the skill level of the enemy? Perhaps. Though I'd much rather play a game that I can trust my team mates then have them rage garen and continously die 40 times because the enemy picked teemo.. Or have to mute everyone in game so I don't tilt it's one of the top reasons why people refuse to ever play rank. I'd say a majority of players can't even play outside of top or mid so they can all drop rank well you and your friends can all improve and perhaps riot may hold some bronze olympics xD they've been working on it for a long time though.
