Ranked Solo/Duo Queue

Revísal·Feb 7, 2019·3 votes·4,577 views

It happened too many times now for myself where certain individuals on my team are a bunch of trolls. I believe Ranked Solo/Duo should allow 5 man parties. I find there is no difference b/w parties being 5 man or 1/2 man when it only takes 2 to make the entire team lose. The climb is already hard for some. For a lot of people, if not everyone, the climb is only ever hard because of trolls.

i just want to suggest they remove solo/duo and turn it into solo/quintet (1/5) parties instead. There's just way too many trolls in league and it ruins the fun. Especially for the people trying to learn or get better.

I feel like rank should be based on the players individual performance (kda, map control, average income, and combat involvement) rather than the result of the match up. For example, if the team that loses the game, the "bot" equally subtracts the amount of LP from each member, the bot that calculates how much LP is loss should account the performance of the player in the games, rather than automatically subtracting it. It's just a food for thought. But it would be great to see b/c it's extremely unfair to those who do their best and perform well in game to loss that much LP and try to gain it back again. It's too time consuming.

I agree that parties of 5 should be allowed in the main ranked queue, but I strongly disagree about the part involving lp being affected by things like kda. Often times, the best move for a team will involve some members dying and it can be extremely frustrating when an ally will choose getting out alive over what would be a win for the team. I'm sure you can imagine other ways playing for kda and stats could result in some undesirable behavior.

I'm curious as to what you mean when you say, "could result in some undesirable behavior." There's already swamps of poisonous individuals in league! & to further my point, I am certain a lot of people quit league b/c of the toxicity of the community. It takes the fun out of the game. You can't get rid of what's already there, but league could at least sort out the ones who actually try in game. Their ranked system is based off of a team playing environment. They should really consider looking at things from the solo queue perspective because it is truly unfair for individuals who spent countless hours trying to rank, just to have a streak of trolls their next few games.

Tbh I realize what you mean concerning the kda, map control, average income, and combat involvement. However, I am mainly talking about loses and not wins. I feel the awards for winning are "fair" enough.

You have dynamic queue. Just play it.

This is an unnecessary comment.

No, what's unnecessary is going back to season 6 and having you people bitch about the very thing we were outright upset with in the first place. We already had this system in place and it was unanimous for majority of people outright disliking the queue. I don't see how this could possibly get any upvotes considering the shit fest that was season 6.

Dynamic queue was put in place of it and if you want a team based ranked system, you already have one. So you want to talk about unnecessary -- asking for something you already have is.

uhm.. yeah dude, you have a brain error. This system was never implemented. At least provide me with some valuable sources to back your knowledge. Also, I don't think you understand what I mean.

In season 6, ranked solo/duo was the dynamic queue you see now as the separate queue. I'm not going digging for season 6 rank system when you could easily find information on that if you took 2 seconds out of your time to do so. This is also common knowledge.

You have 3 different points up there. I'm mainly referring to your aforementioned points:
