What premade? I see a 2 man premade in your last Thresh game, but the other 2 never played together or with the others. You sure this was a 4 man premade?

every game there are premades on the enemy team. I just want to play ranked without having to face 5 man premade in solo q. If premade didn't exist i would have 100% wR and wouldn't even be complaining about anything at all ever

what am i supposed to do about a 4 man ffing though, i literally cant stop it, there is no way for me to prevent that loss even if i was faker because they just all vote to surrender and it's over

its a 0 counterplay situation i had those couple times where i was winning but my team ffed so im like WTF WHY. it results in a unfun 0 counterplay surrender despite being super fed.

Same, I am so tired solo q playing against premades, like 4+1 or 3+2.

Isn't it impossible to queue up as 4? IIRC you can queue as 3 and 5, but not as 4 because of exactly this problem.

Only in flex queue. You can queue as 4 in normals or ARAM, and in any event which allows at least 4 people to queue together.

It miiiight also be disabled in TFT.

It's a freaking normal game. Just play another one?

Normals doesnt justify toxic behavior. You can use "its just a game" in ranked and have the same amount of logic as "its just normals" in normals.

I feel like this isn't really that big of a problem, like i get it. but the solutions to this "problem" just create problems in itself. it would be another divide between the league population. they could say "hey if you cant have premades of 4 people, only 3 or 5, that would just fuck with groups of people trying to have fun as friends. there isnt a real way around this because they have to fill that singular spot with a player.Personally as a preson who's been on both sides of the situation i dont think its that super of a problem. if the four people on the premade wanted to surrender then let them surrender. the situation is the exact same if 4 randoms decide the game is a loss and you're the only one who doesnt feel that way.

More than that though, toxic premades are the worst. I've twice experienced particularly bad ones where they just ganged up on me--constantly spamming ? pings and doing the typical 'oml this (champion name)' flame talk. It was extremely tilting and horrible to play as, especially since they feel emboldened by their group. Sometimes if I've made mistakes in a game I can at least see where toxicity comes from--everyone gets frustrated, maybe it's been a bad day. But in both of these cases the BM'ing started as soon as the game began and I went to my lane. I didn't do anything, the minions hadn't even caught up. Their Jinx ran all the way to the other side of the map into enemy territory alone while I was in lane, miles away. Noticing, I did start traveling her way, but she was way too far and when she inevitably died, I got BM'd even more with those god-damned ? pings. I'm not sure how well Riot counters premade toxicity but I hate how 2 or 3 times it's blatantly obvious they went into the game ready for a victim--pure malicious behavior with no excuse. And if I report, what if the teammates are just going to defend? 3-4 words against mine? Anyway, that's just my bias but I wish I knew what Riot could do about it.

It's always amazing to play solo/duo with two premades on your team.

If only they moved duo into flex :/.

it was literally the last game i had played, it was a norm, but still felt very shitty to lose that way

Light Burner1 votes

There was only 1 duo in that game. The other 2 were both solo.

They said they were a 4 man, they way they spoke, they were def a 4 man, plus they ff'd a game which we were severely ahead because i wasn't doing what they wanted

That stuff is awful for the gameplay, unfair for the honor, and unbalanced for the matchmaking.

But of course everything is "working as intended", no need to change anything :D
