INB4 Ranked Emblems

INB4: "Well, actually with ranked emblems we see that most players PREFER dynamic Queue because they earned the Dynamic Emblem, showing that they play a mixture of team sizes."

Like no shit, I know for a fact this is going to happen.

The system is rigged so that if you play basically any games that aren't solo, you're no longer a "solo player". They will also use this to say that claims of large premades in ranked are over exaggerated, because if you play with < 3 people in your team a couple times, you are no longer a "team player". By giving a majority of possibilities the term dynamic player, they can say that most people prefer dynamic queue (Even if that "dynamic player" literally is just duo-ing a couple times, as was the norm in other seasons with SoloQ)

It's based on the last 25 games, so someone can quite easily have had all three at least once during a season. It doesn't really show a whole lot about how you generally play, only how you have very recently played.

No one is going to say players prefer dynamic queue because of the emblems because the emblems have no long term meaning. Riot can, however, just look at what players are actually doing instead of having to add some emblem thing. They have had the stats since day one of dynamic queue.

You're over-complicating the situation just so you can rag on the new thing they are adding.

Don't worry, I was ragging on the ranked emblems from their announcement because riots solution to solo players playing with premades in ranked is to give them a sticker that isn't even visable unless you go to their profile
