Last season in dynamic queue it took me a year to get from silver 5 to gold 5.

This year it took me not even a month to get from silver 5 to silver 1. Thanks.

Dynamic Queue wasn't even that hard to win solo until high elo. You just needed to play well, which means actually getting better. I went from Silver 5 to Plat 5 in a matter of 3 months doing usually solo queue and a bit of dynamic during that period.

On the one hand, I'm glad for the return of solo queue, it's a net positive and I enjoy it.

On the other hand, are you sure that "reduced climbing time" isn't just because you raised your MMR significantly during the previous year, and thus you got inflated LP gains this month comparatively?

I didn't realize how much I appreciated Solo/Duo (I started playing in season 6) until I played a normal last night and got matched against a five man queue. God it's miserable to go against that kind of coordination...

Except this soloQ is a big fucking scam. Don't know if i'm the only one who noticed but i frequently get two duos per team which should not happen. All years soloQ was restricted to one duo per side nowyou can easily get two usually being a premade bot and solo lane/jungle thanks to role select. Not blaming or anything but imo riot should have been honest about it and told us this season two duos are allowed.

Let's thank them that they swallowed their pride and fixed what they've broken themselves.

It's definitely because of solo queue and not because you've improved. Nope, you are literally at the same skill level you were a year ago.

Well, for me there's nothing to thank them for. I've lost like 5 games in a row. The games aren't even close and are lost by the 5 minute mark. I'm always the only one with positive stats. So the match making is freaking broken.

While i appriciate solo queues return i will not thank them, i had to quit league for a 6 months to get them to change their minds, so its not like they did it out of the kindness of their heart we kidnapped something they enjoy and they got scared because without ranked players "climbing the ladder" the casual players would quickly abandon the game due to the perception of a game is only good if there is a competitive ladder phenomena.

I climbed so much faster out of the bronze! In less then a month, and last year it took me 10 months lol.

Proof DQ sucked!!!
