Can we make solo queue a pure solo queue (no duos) please?

I'm playing my promos now, and in some of my games I encoutered very negative (flaming) players. When I looked them up on op.gg I saw they were premades. ~10 games sample is not quite representative, but for me it was enough of reason to create this discussion. I mean, there is already a dedicated queue where premades of 2,3 and 5 can play as much as they want, why add duos to solo queue where they will provoke increased tension between them and the rest of the team?

jfc, I called it. The moment that Dynamic Queue is gone and Solo/Duo is finally back, people are just gonna start complaining again. What is wrong with this community?

There's been a push towards wanting a pure Solo Queue for as long as Solo/Duo has existed. This is not in any way a new thing, people have wanted duos out of Solo Queue far longer than they've disliked Dynamic Queue.

Why do we need a duo in solo?

There is already a dynamic que for that. Most of the time troll if they don't get duo bot and feed anyway.

Please, its not really a problem with the duo/solo system, its a problem with the specific duo in question. Theres really no difference between 2 flaming solo's or 1 flaming duo, its the same.

I want this as well. Duos belong in Flex Queue, not Solo Queue

I've wondered about this. With ranked flex I don't see any reason to not make solo queue completely solo.

The Riot balance team is full of bronze-gold so they need boosting by their fellow employees :^)

Entirely possible that it would make queue times even longer, since they essentially have to find another player. Lots of duos queue for ADC and Support as well, so you lose a potential support player which will make it take even longer.
