Six year player, saw all the backtracking on solo queue, and I'm done. I know this post will be trolled and downvoted to oblivion, but I felt the need to make it.

Thanks, League, it's been an awesome time. You've consumed my life and kept me entertained for so long. As a strictly solo player, I've really tried to embrace dynamic queue, but all the little negatives about it have added up to where I'm not enjoying my games anymore. Solo queue was my hope for the game, and all the backtracking and delays is so classic Riot that I would not be surprised if it never comes out.

If it does, you have a six year playing customer coming back with gusto. If not, I really enjoyed the time I played. Thanks for the memories.

Six year player here. Have uninstalled League like, 3 times in the past 4 months. Preseason and season 6 is just disgusting. Balance, goals, the purposeful catering of specific champions (Zed, who the community warned Riot would get out of hand with the introduction of Duskblade and now we're finally getting word of him a month and a week later), the gutting of most AP-based champions followed by the buffing of most AD-based champions. Many mages have had their win rates plummet, and Riot's solution is to buff them instead of reevaluating AP items in general (which they finally are for the mid year mage update, but only minimally).

I have a hard time bringing myself into playing this game. I used to NO-LIFE this game hardcore, between being jobless, between classes, and between work. Now, I play 2-3 games a day, even on my free days. I told myself I'd quit once I got into Overwatch beta, or when Overwatch releases... which should be around the time Mid Year Mage Update releases, which will be my last straw. Have a good life, OP, and hopefully we both get to have a good game to come back to but that's not happening anytime soon it seems.

Problem is, Riot doesn't care. They truly don't care. They won't even read your post.

But, if you posted something about funny artwork or wonder what meddlers favorite donut flavor is or something stupid, you are sure to get a response.

This isn't really something that goes into gameplay, and probably more something you should stick in Misc or general discussion.

Yeah fuck this whole situation. Dynamic Queue should have been the experiment to follow the new champ select in solo queue. Solo would be so much easier to implement. Queue times would be way shorter and matchmaking would be better. More people would be getting the roles they wanted if you only had to pick 10 random individuals from an entire pool of individual players, instead of this nonsense where they have to sort through the various different sized premade groups.

Fuck dynamic queue. Ranked should always be solo unless its full teams, no in-between.

At the risk of being downvoted (i don't really care) and sounding like a douche, we don't need people who threaten to quit or close their wallets the moment Riot makes a decision. With every buff or nerf, with every new feature and decommissioning the old one, you get these people who feel the need to announce they are leaving - you were fine all this time with being anon so what changed?

With this kind of a post, you are not discussing anything or making an argument about this matter. It's your resolution and your way of making an ultimatum "Either i get this or i leave". Not to mention that when you get to "enjoy" your ranked experience, threads with these keywords usually pop up: "getting banned; trolls; toxic; bronze; etc". I think you can guess what kind of threads they are.

You were never forced to pay for the game. You were never forced to play the game. You were doing it on your own merit. It's fine to not have fun with the game anymore, maybe it has run its course but saying that one change ruined it for you - people can be very melodramatic sometimes, just to make a scene.

It's nothing personal. You are no one. I am no one. Leave quietly. ##You are not going to be missed. #Enjoy whatever awaits you on the other side.

Uninstalling from your computer does not means you're not gonna play League from another PC.

I personally have never had a problem with dynamic que, I see the same kind of people as I did in solo que, I've played with teams of 4 and all solo and I really haven't felt a difference. Just my opinion though.

I'm not happy with the new season mostly for the fact that there is basically a pool of 25 champs in every single game. "Balanced" IMO just means you have the capability to pick a large range of the 120+ champs and feel good about it going into a game for the most part. There's always a top tier group but this time it has been a little ridiculous.

That being said, take a look at the 6.6 patch notes and the upcoming PBE notes and almost everything that has been OP lately is getting a nerf, and I'm pretty happy with that.

Lastly, I have an honest question for anyone agreeing with these posts about "I'm done", and that is where are you seeing these overly significant differences in gameplay with >2 man parties over the past single/duo queue (APART from the champ issues)? I duo typically 80% of my ranked games (or solo, never more) and have honestly not noticed much of a difference, especially not enough to be like WOW this is bad.
