3,4,5 man ranked queues should be added back

Honestly no one cares about flex rank. Everyone cares about your solo queue rank. I loved it when before you were able to play 3,4,5 man and it would contribute to your solo queue rank. RIOT ADD THIS BACK

You mean you loved boostfiesta? Because dynamicQ was just that.

I don't even likes duos because of the boosting potential, such as:

  1. Diamond+ guy gets paid to play on smurf to carry the person who paid them.
  2. Or they aren't getting paid, they're just friends.

Makes for an unbalanced solo queue experience, throws a wild card in there.

There would still be high-elo smurfs, they just would have less incentive if they're not being paid to boost. That or helping a friend rise up the ranks artificially.

The only reason I'm not completely against duos is because if I wanted to play with just one friend in Flex I'd potentially have to face 5-man premades with voice comms, or does it not work that way (only matches 5 vs 5, not 2+3 vs 5)?

If it does, it could be a painful experience in several ways for people that just want to duo.

That said, I'd love purely solo queue without duos.

They basically kept it and called it flex lol. They got rid of it because players were getting boosted very easily, there were smurfs in every single game and the vast majority wanted solo q back for the sole reason that it was an undiluted rank of a single player's performance rather than the diluted, bloated rank everyone who abused it had. Your reasoning on why you dislike flex q is exactly how many players felt about dynamic
