Another "we hate dynamic queue" thread that riot will ignore. [Warning, lengthy]

Jumping straight into it im gonna compare the old ranked system to the new one and address many arguments i've heard for this new system.

In the old queue, the maximum amount of people you could have in solo queue was 2 people. (lets not forget the adamant witch hunt people had for premades even before dynamic queue. Riot clearly didn't want to fix the issue as they hushed any league site that gave out premade information. Prime examples being lolnexus and na.op.gg, they use to give warnings indicators that showed who was in a premade.) If you wanted to play with more than 2 people you head to the 5 man queue. Another thing the old queue did well was check and balance itself out

2 teammates at most, 3 randoms. with this format, the premades couldn't over power the random players and berate and insult them for their skills because in a way they are still out numbered. If they wanted to flame someone they wouldn't get away with it because there are at least 2 other people who can agree with that one person. None of that gang up on the random shit. But in the new dynamic queue? well i'll get to that when i talk about how flawed the new queue is.

The new ranked queue (the only ranked queue) now allows you to queue up with any given amount of people you wish. League sites that gave out match history on premades is no longer an option so you cant be aware of the potential danger democratic over ruling the premades can make on the team because they out number you. Now the biggest issue with this is, this is IN NO WAY a consistent data of ranked play. At any given point if you queue by yourself you could be under the following.

2 teammates 3 randoms 3 teammates 2 randoms 4 teammates 1 random

Like i said previously im getting back to why this number system is flawed, with this new system you now have multiple chances to where the premades who all know eachother can ruin a randoms ranked experience by solely blaming them for any faults and mistakes they make. this has nothing to do with the report system What matters is you have people who WILL take advantage of the odd man or men out and use them as a scapegoat for their poor play.

None of that information is consistent and completely changes the way an entire elo can work and the strategies that you will be faced with. This can also toss everything you know about the game out of the window.

"Well if you had friends you wouldn't have issues with the new queue loser HAHAHAHAHA" This is so flawed and simple minded that its probably gonna be a large part of my problem with this new queue. 1, if you have such a plethora of friends then you would never have a problem with the old 5 man queue.

"Well nobody has time to play together all the time, unlike you we don't dedicate most of our time playing this game." Well then why in the hell would you even care if the system of a ranked queue that you obviously dont really care about is changed to better suit the players who dont want to deal with premades?

If finding people 5 people is such a big problem for you? then how exactly do you have all these friends you brag about? if you're such a popular person who can swing in a bunch of people to play with you in ranked then how about you put your charismatic and o so charming personality to use and recruit more friends, or make a schedule for ranked 5s time instead of crowding into solo queue and ruining the experience for others.

"Ahhh you don't have any friends to play with so why do you care."** 1st** Yes I do have friends, am I going to queue with them? no. 2nd, idk about you guys but i treat people the way they want to be treated. I wont bring people who are lower than me or above me into my ranked matches just for the sake of friendship because i wouldn't want others doing the same. Its a complete lack of self respect and blatant disrespect for others and my own personal experience if i brought someone who isn't on my level or is above my level into my ranked matches to get free wins, or struggle to win because i dont want to tell my friends to either A: "carry me" or B: "Don't worry i'll carry you. 3rd Believe it or not, maybe some people have a very hard time socializing or getting along with others and can only enjoy a ranked experience by queuing alone and when people like "hahaha i have friends" come in ruining the ranked experience it just makes things worse for them and everyone else playing ranked.

The final problem I have with this system is this. You bring a bunch of people who are low ranked, play with them to get them into higher elos. Then once they get to that elo and aren't being hand held, they end up RUINING ranked matches because they don't have their idiotic friends who let their even dimwitted friends play ranked in a completely new enviornment by themselves who will bring others down who have actually worked hard to get to their elo.

But hey this is just a small opinion nobody will care for, especially riot, they already got a shit load of money they won't give a damn if the game goes to shit. especially since its 100% chinese owned now, they will just make a new game that everyone will pour money into and get all you guys into the same situation as before.
