4 man premades are cancer

Just had another game with a 4 man group where I was the solo player. And no, we weren't up against another group. The opposing team was 3 solos and a duo.

Like a lot of premades, toxic as shit...but really well coordinated. Four man ganks at like 8 minutes, huge map control just from being on Skype. They flamed everyone who wasn't part of their little circle jerk, me, the enemies, everyone.

I reported them, but they all reported me. Guess which counts more, four reports or one? We all know the report system does not work for stuff like this and it hasn't for a long time.

This wasn't fun for me, this wasn't fun for the enemy team. The only people in this game having fun were the group of four people bullying everybody else. This is what Riot wants the game to be? Fine. I don't want to play this game any more. Putting up with unfair games and abusive gangs of assholes is just too much. I'm done.

Dyamic queue was the worst decision Riot has ever made.

I just watched a friend play a game where he played with a 4 man premade. They were up by more than double the kills and several towers but the group decided they wanted to go out to a party so they forced a surrender at 20 because they didn't want to wait any longer.

Being teamed with the premade is often just as bad as playing against them. They can carry you but talk shit and bully, they can be utter trash and make the game 1v5 for you, or they can be entirely on voice chat and never use chat/pings and leave you out of all game planning. Not all are like this but the pleasant ones seem to be the minority.

True. Premades are just bad and unhealthy.

Yes Riot is encouraging playing with friends more than ever, but these premades are by far some of the most toxic I've seen in League literally. Just constant team harassing and bragging and shit... Can we end this once and for all, and just bring back Solo Que ?

As you may have noticed, we've beefed up the Report System, and added new features to the Instant Feedback System. More than ever before, Premade 4s won't be able to "affect" your account if they simply gang up and try to bully you with reports. In fact, if they do this often and they file false reports, they can be banned for this behavior. Secondly, in a Premade 4 situation, your reports are just as powerful as the group, so if they are showing toxic behaviors at all, your single report can have a meaningful impact and trigger a punishment. We believe measures like this will help balance out this specific scenario to be less negative.

Inform yourself plz

Had one last night.. It. Was. Horrible. All the other lanes lost but they blamed me, how they got to that conclusion is beyond me.

riot should remove 4 man premades make 3 man premades being 100% of the time matched with a duo q , against a duo + trio they should add a solo q ladder in this q or they could just bring back the old systeme wich was perfect

I just lost to a 4-man premade. Not really fun to play against a coordinated team as randoms.

Whenever my friends and I 4-man, we may not be the most coordinated, but dammit, we make sure that 5th man feels loved.

I just had to play with a 3 man premade and a solo, it was in bronze, and I can't lie. I'll say it straight up, they were horrible. I literally told a soraka to use her ult correctly and she called me salty and ignored me for the rest of the game. We had a huge lead after a comeback and I said baron, they kept pushing down mid while me and the solo went at baron. We got it, and the premade died. We threw the whole game that way, then I queue up again because league of legos is addictive, and I'm matched with them again. I say "why did you guys not baron last game?" and raka responds by saying just because you say something doesn't mean we're gonna do it. Then, holy shit, they say why do you take this game seriously? Literally say why play ranked if you don't want to take it seriously and they go silent. /rant

They can't flame "everyone". They can flame YOU and only YOU. Or they can argue with enemies. But some people don't give a shit what enemy team are saying, i played for more than a year with All chat disabled.

Assuming Riot isn't a bunch of scumbag liars, we should have a Solo Que very soon. They promised and confirmed it several times. It's stupid to mix every queue configuration into a single ranking.

3man premades are just as cancerous.

I don't care if this is year later, amount of reports does not count, but then again, what would I expect from a LoL player, they don't even understand how to cs properly, of course they wouldn't know how reporting system works.

Usually if I'm on with a friend we usually do our best to keep our team up to what we're planning. Often we just chat and sometimes forget we should be coordinating.

But I understand wholeheartedly why you'd be upset at jerks like this.

Number of reports dont matter from what ive heard, all it takes is one to unleash the chatbot

4 man parties are cancer, cause whenever they happen, I always feed and my friends blame me for throwing. ;-;

I just had a absolutely fantastic experience with 4 man premade... got queued with them i played Shen top had a good game they we extremely nice and overly complemented my play(almost to a point where it was a little weird)... well they invited me to play again we ended up going went 4 and 1, i won promos and a few of them got into theirs

and i actually never had a bad experience with premades >.<

Multiple reports in a game have no more weight then a single report. As long as you weren't breaking any rules, then nothing will happen to you.

mogonk4/10/2016, 11:34:06 AM1 votes

I don't know exactly how the system works these days. I used to back when the Tribunal was a thing, but I haven't kept up. Maybe multiple reports won't do anything. I don't know. Doesn't really change how shitty the experience of playing the game is these days.
