Ranked is actually easier than solo queue

In solo queue there's a chance you'll have to fight someone who's in a higher division/elo than you. But in ranked you don't have this issue. You'll only be placed with people one division/elo higher than you (at best). So, for most people, ranked theoretically should be easier to win in, right?

Pretend you're bronze for a minute. In solo queue, you could end up fighting someone who's gold or higher. But in ranked, you'll only be up against silvers at best. So theoretically winning in ranked should be easier than solo queue, correct?

In ranked. you can only fight silvers and other bronze if you are in bronze. while in normals you may regularly get golds in your games but win against them if you can win against golds why shouldnt you be able to win againsts bronze and slivers. His theory is sound but its also circumstatial golds in normals who get matched with bronzes are the quitter types they play the game and quit if they cant snowball they dont really offer a real gold versus experience so its unlikely that you will learn enough to easily beat people who are lower than gold

Sadly not the case. Solo queue isn't game mode specific, solo queue is just you joining a match by yourself. Meaning, the same thing happens in ranked that happens in normals.

You will go against premades, and they will be higher elo. The last ranked match i did was beyond memory , and i was against 2 plats, 2 diamonds, and 1 silver. Quite this mix of bullcrapery isn't that?

Meanwhile my team consisted of all silver.

All i can say is, dynamic queue sucks balls, puts you against higher elo's, as well as premades meanwhile putting a bunch of dumb asses on your team.

I mean, it's pretty obvious that when he said "solo queue" he meant "normals".

ok? xD that's why i clarified for him? Either he didn't know, or he said one thing and meant another, either way, i clarified it, and it should be crystal clear now that solo queue is apart of normals, ranked, and even aram.

Neither will be easy to win as long as surrendering is meta

Misleading title sorry. Yes I was referring to normals. I thought it would be obvious but apparently not.
