@Socrates Question About DQ Matchmaking
From what I gather on http://na.leagueoflegends.com/en/news/game-updates/features/rethinking-ranked-fives-and-tuning-dynamic-queue . . . . you are adding a special emblem for players that que as a solo, team, and trio . . . . and this emblem will show everyone what you have qued as for the past 25 wins in DQ. You say that players want recognition for skilled solo play in dynamic queue. No we don't. We want a true Solo Q where we are not up against a full premade group . . . . . . or duos and trios.
Frankly I think almost all of us can care less how we come off to other players in terms of our last 25 wins in DQ . . . or what special emblem you assign us. The problem is you are pairing SOLO Q players against full premade teams, duos, and trios. Most of us don't like to play with other people and just like to grind ourselves out of whatever ELO we are in. I climbed myself out of Bronze V into Silver V. Maybe one or two matches I played with a friend, but I carried myself out of Bronze. I like playing ranked BY MYSELF and would like to play against players that also like to play by THEMSELVES so I at least know it is fair. You seriously cannot comprehend how unfair it is to go up against a premade team with high level smurfs, coordination with Skype, toxic behavior by premades, and much more. My frustration with queing in ranked games have recently intensified to the point that I only play maybe one or two normal games a week. I hate being forced to play against full premades, duos, and trios when I enjoy playing ranked games by myself. You are forcing players to play this way when there was nothing wrong with SOLO Q to begin with. I started playing a couple years ago and ALWAYS played ranked by myself. Now you are forcing me to play against TEAMS of toxic players and probably smurfs carrying their friends . . . . for what reason? . . . . You wanted to get rid of SOLO Q to force players to play with each other more . . . . when sorry . . . some of us enjoy playing by ourselves and with other lone players as well.
The last few ranked matches I have been in were all me against a premade. The enemy premade team was toxic, rude in chat, coordinated way more than my ground and I, and taunted every chance they got. When it gets to about 4 to 5 ranked matches where I am force to play against these types of people and in this environment, I just don't want to play the game anymore. You have taken away any ability for others and myself to enjoy playing ranked solo. This ridiculous emblem system is a waste of time and we don't need proof we are solo queing in raked games. I know if I am solo queing or playing with others. If I am queing ranked as a solo players I should ALMOST ALWAYS be paired against other SOLO players. If I am queing with a friend or couple of friends, then I should go up against other players that are part of one.
Why do you have to be so stubborn and just give the community what they are asking for? We have voiced our opinion, you refuse to show us the data, and you think a ridiculous emblem that has nothing to do with matchmaking is going to solve all of our problems with solo q players being forced to go against premades, duos, and trios of players. It's not. You are just wasting time you could be spending on DQ matchmaking so teams go against teams and solo players ALWAYS go against solo players. I don't care if the teams have to wait hours before they go against another team. If they choose que ranked as a team, they should have to wait for that decision until their is a right opponent for them.
You really make no sense with this entire emblem garbage.
