Unbelievable mismatch in mmr Flex Ranked

Not a day goes by that I don't see this happen. This game has no resemblance of a working mmr system and this proves it:

Ranked Flex 5v5

My team: Gold 4 Gold 4 Silver 5 Silver 1 Unranked

Their team: Gold 4 Gold 5 Gold 3 Gold 4 Diamond 4

How in the hell did this even happen? Do you guys even try to balance this game, or are you making so much money that you just don't care anymore? Not 1 game in the past week has been even remotely enjoyable because of this terrible system.

Needless to say, this game was no exception. It was totally one sided. Their team didn't even play a "real" game. They had 2 junglers and no adc. Didn't matter. Their players were worlds better in general than our whole team. One of the gold 4's on their team was in his promo's so I'm willing to bet that his diamond friend is carrying him. I'm tried of it. I don't care if people can't play with their friends. It should be impossible for anyone, any of the 10 players in a game, to be more than 2 or 3 total ranks above or behind anyone, and that also means being in the SAME league.

If me and someone else both queue as gold, every single other player in that game should be gold. No silver, no plat, no diamond, and god forbid I've ever gotten some bronzes in my games. No. None of that BS. ALL the same league/rank period. It doesn't matter if the queue wait time is 10 minutes if the game isn't even going to be fair or enjoyable.

You're playing Flex queue that's your first issue in general. Flex has it's own elo which doesn't relate to solo elo.

How is that "my issue" ? The game mode should be balanced regardless. What reason could there possibly be for a ranked game mode to not be as perfectly balanced as it can possibly be?

Most of the time I wait for 20+ minutes and my queue is more unbalanced than that

Because the game is unable to calculate your actual ability. You lose a game, odds are you are destined to lose 3 more because of the cascading effect of being put on worse and worse teams.

Everyone knows FlexQ is shit because FlexQ is just DynamicQ renamed. You said you go through this every day with FlexQ but nothing changes.

THEN STOP PLAYING FLEXQ

Seriously. Everyone who complains about that shitty queue can solve their problem so easily by simply not playing it. You have an amazing and glorious SoloQ back from the grave just waiting to be enjoyed, so stop playing FlexQ and go play REAL league of legends now.
