Hey Riot, can you please fix flex queue matchmaking? Please? MMR should not be separate from Solo.

Look, I get it. No one cares about flex. And yes, MMRs are separate from Solo Queue, and I'm sure balancing is hard when you have solos in queue vs teams of 3 and 5.

But I'm sick and tired of going against Diamonds in flex. Today I played four games of flex, and two of them had diamonds and the other two had very high Plats. And of course, my team had all the Silvers. It's incredibly toxic and ridiculous. How in the world is climbing even possible when the average distance between our teams is not just one or two divisions, but six? Or eight?

I'm not saying start every flex queue ranking where their solo is. But if they're diamond, they shouldn't be playing against silvers, period. Otherwise why have the queue at all? You're making it impossible to enjoy this game with broken gameplay already, but when you queue people with vastly different skill levels it takes any fun at all out of the game.

What do you mean??? I totally think my G3 mid has a 50% chance of beating their D3 mid. Cmon dont blame teammates or matchmaking.

It's scary how Riot obviously doesn't really care about this issue. They are probably "It's just flex lol"-type of players themselves :(
