Daily reminder that we need a Solo Q ladder

Thrëat··53 votes·2,132 views

Shouldn't have to play with 4 man premades as the odd man out every game. It is very hard to win games where all your team mates are on the same page as each other but refuse to do a single thing with you. Lost a game where my team had a 7k gold lead but they kept making absolutely trash calls followed by running at them 1v3 again and again because they were too busy talking on skype to pay attention.

Lyte said they'll implement a Ranked Solo Que.

Problem is Lyte also said it'll come with inferior season rewards compared to Dyno Que.

That's an issue because players will feel compelled to double grind both ques.

If Solo Que is released with inferior rewards I'd rather not even have it.

** Dyno Que isn't actually that bad, not sure the game even needs a Solo Que **

Watched Meteos stream last night with the entire C9 team other than Rush (Just to clarify, 5 lcs pro players) just casually queing in dynamic que, pretty much every game they had someone on the enemy team bitched saying something like "How is this fair?" Geuss what, its not. Even if it is Riots supposed "2% chance", which i find hard to believe given the many inconsistents with champ select such as primary and secondary roles, its inexcusable. The champion select is find outside of the stupid locking in, but Dynamic Que has many, many flaws in it that make alot of people absolutely refuse to take part in it, myself included. Not to mention que times, good lord.

As much as I don't like it, this point is actually entirely valid.

If solo queue is released with inferior incentives with dynamic queue still solo playable the solo queue ladder is basically setup to fail. To never be as consistent and competitive as the original solo queue ladder ever was due to smaller player pool... Is this part of the grand scheme..? Eliminating solo queue in dynamic queue to fully validate solo queue would also mean you have to eliminate 4 man premades in dynamic queue (I would be cool with this sacrifice, but it would be inconvenient and will never happen as we basically go back to really close to where we were with the old ladders)

It REALLY grinds my gears when they /ff because the game isn't going their way. It's always 4v1 vote and I'm like wtf. I get no say... Just because they all agreed on skype that starting a new one is better, doesn't justify the loss of LP i have to suffer.

Its worse when you get a 4 man premade thats arguing with each other to surrender. It just makes you feel like the game was a loss before it even started.

FF because its not going your way? doesn't that also translate to we are losing and need to get into another game we can win before we waste more time on this one? I personally hate surrendering i do it every once in a blue moon, but normally if 4 people on a team surrender, its because there is most likely not a way you will win, with all the changes they made and buffs to the winning team, comebacks in low elo are much harder to pull off. So If 4 people agree to surrender your usually at your base down a inhib and the enemy is at baron and your powerless to stop them this is my experience

You don't need to remind Riot. This is scheduled.

Except that riot has a problem with scheduling things and having them come "soon" or never at all.

I just don't get the feeling that an entire Ranked queue is low on their priority list.

Ao Shin was supposed to come early this year, and has been in the work for about 2 years ish? Yes this has happened to other champs, but those champs don't have their designs leaked out with "upcoming release" plastered onto it. Yorick rework soon

Their priority is the current set up. They will devote their resources to making sure this one is working optimally before moving on.

Exactly, they need the reminders. It has been about 2 weeks and we haven't even had an update. This dynamic queue is an absolute joke when trying to climb solo. The amount of games lost from the premades deciding to just FF if they are doing bad regardless of how you are doing mixed with the amount of premades that just troll the 5th person and act like everything is their fault is ridiculous. And the answer isn't to find 4 people and premade with,, it really isn't. I don't want to play with premades, I want to climb alone, like I have for the last 5 years of playing this game. Last season I hit diamond twice and this season I can't even get near high plat becasue more often than not I'm with a premade that gets to make all the decisions along with have the full power on whether or not we surrender. Those comeback games that helped me get into diamond - aren't possible with premades constantly throwing in the towel once they all get stomped in lane.

Ao Shin is also "scheduled".

Solo queue is coming "soon." The question is, are they going to continue pushing Dynamic as the future of League and effectively punish you for playing alone by giving you inferior rewards? I'm not touching ranked until solo queue comes back, and would like equal rewards...if not, _greater _ rewards because this rank represents my personal skill rather than the skill of whoever has the stronger duo, triple, quad queued premade.

It's coming, just wait. They've said solo queue ladders are gonna be pushed out by the end of Febuary.

I'll bet anyhing the OP and his pack are blowing things out of proportion. How the hell do you even know you are playing with a premade? You probably say you were playing with a premade every time your team surrenders. You're no better than the idiots who blame every other death on a bug or imaginary creep block, and think they are constantly being ghosted.

Isn't hard to look up someone's match history and see that they've been the same 4 retards in the last few games. You act like there is absolutely no way to tell that someone is in a premade. Also, I wasn't just guessing they were premades, they straight up said so. Good job looking stupid though, putting in your valuable input in something you don't understand.

We NEED another ranked ladder ASAP. We've already disabled ranked 5s. I want to be able to play semi serious on my own without affecting my "team" dynamic queue rating.

Please. please please solo Q. I can't even carry 17 kills ahead because the other team in on Ventrillo and in PREMADE TEAM ARRRGGHHHHH.

Meanwhile I'm with the window lickers. Like everytime.

Thrëat1 votes

*Bumping to remind Riot that we need a Solo Q ladder, being the 5th man out isn't fun, and 100% of the time I'm the highest ranked person on the team. It should not be my responsibility to have to carry some scrub 4 man premade.
