Alright I'll say it

I'll say it, Riot, you messed up really hard, harder than you ever have in the past. I've defended you on boards for some time now. I tell randoms and friends alike that you've said solo queue is coming back, and I was really hyped for it. You can keep the new champ select, it's great, but what in the world made you think 5 people in a premade were equal to a group of 5 single queue'd players. Same goes for 2 groups of 2 and 1 group of 4. That's not how it works. And before you or anyone says MMR based matches are fair, you can't ignore that the larger the premade, the higher the chance they have verbal communication. Why do LCS players have headsets when they play? because verbal communication brings out the best in a team. And when they win, they get such a low LP gain that's the game isn't even worth it. And after telling us not once, but TWICE that solo queue was coming back, you just cancel it. Why? Do you really want dynamic queue that badly? Why? Most of your choices tend to be tied to LCS, but this won't affect LCS in any way shape or form. If it's not LCS, it's meant for the majority of players, and the majority is against it. And before someone says most ranked players enjoy dynamic, it's because the people like me who hate it don't play it. I have plenty of friends who are all either unranked or only did a few matches before quitting ranked until solo queue is back. Most of us are just going to do ranked at the end for the gold rewards (If it's a skin for a champ we like anyway), but besides that I just don't feel like playing League anymore. And I don't want to play with friends every time because not all my friends are on 24/7, sometimes college just stops you from playing the same time as friends. And a lot of my friends I wouldn't take in ranked because we're 1 or 2 leagues apart.

TL;DR

Riot just put solo queue back, you're only hurting yourselves like this.
