Why are queues so long?

Tourist McGee··1 votes·392 views

This game seems to be really quite popular, so i find it odd that my pvp queues are upwards of 20 (i generally give up at this point, so no idea how long i'd actually have to wait beyond that point) minutes. My PvAI queues are 1-3 minutes, sometimes less. So, in as much as i would prefer the pvp battles, i'm pretty much forced to go PvAI just so that i can actually play the game.

Is this an issue for other people? Is RIot looking into this?

It's because the game tries to make teams even, so it attempts to match you up with similar levels. As time goes on, it opens up to accept a wider variety of skill, but still tries to make sure teams are varied. Your account is still low level, and low levels are less common. I would say stick to AI games untill 15 or 20. Queue times for PvP should get much better from then on.
