If you won't remove dynamic queue, at least fix matchmaking.

Fiora, LB, Voli in trio. A gold five should never be able to take two silver players (each with a decent number of games played so their MMR is somewhat evened off) and get matched against a full team of G2-P5. The skill difference between high silver and high gold is pretty steep and communication does not make up the difference. (Game was won only due to the enemy team having an afk jungle.) I'm willing to wait an extra five minutes for more balanced teams.

it really doesnt feel fair when your a silv 3 trying to lane against a plat 5 but its supposedly balanced cuz their midlaner is silv3 and your mid is plat 5 so it is no longer about playing the game but now about not feeding your lane as much as their mid will feed his lane

LOL shit's so awful. I've had an experience just like this but it was downvoted to hell when I posted it. Feels bad because those silvers didn't even deserve to win.

It's a circus, just another normals queue. Seriously what kind of integrity of matches is that. What's the point of making it to gold 1 when you're playing with silver 3s? This is not ranked, it's a clown fiesta.

Don't know how you get to plat 5 with a 47% win rate. but anyway I agree plats and silvers should not be matched together if they cant queue together

Ranking only gives you a rough idea of where someone is at. If you look at the op.gg estimates of your opponents' MMR, they are all lower than average for their rank. In fact, 3 are classified as 'Welcome to ELO Hell,' which is the biggest possible disparity between MMR and ranking, I believe, including the jungler who has mid silver MMR. These people are probably on big loss streaks for whatever reason and just haven't been demoted yet.

Actually math says the premade factor does make up for it. It may not for that particular premade, but on average across premades it does. In short, queue premades again lcs teams imo. Let them get their shit pushed in.

Their lucian was in his silver 2 promos.

Needless to say, he got stomped.

People need to learn that they need to play with people of their skill level, it's ridiculous that he thought he could win against a team thats 7-8 divisions above him.

Ive ran into this way too consistently that its made rank unplayable.

Sorry to be off-topic, but Windspeaker's seems an odd choice for Leona. Does it enhance the shields from Face of the Mountain and Locket?
