How often are premades matched against full soloist teams in Normals?
Anecdotal evidence only, sadly, but in the past week I've played with a premade 8 times, and of those, 7 times it was as 5 solos against a premade of 3+. Once, the premade was on my side and the opposing team was all soloists.
I pretty much wind-up playing Ranked not for its competitive nature, but because I don't want to be matched against the umpteenth 4-man premade and be stomped by superior coordination. Insult to injury is often that the premades have higher ranks than the people on my team, and while rank is mostly an indication of consistency it still feels extra bad to look at your ADC and see he is Gold IV, and then their ADC is Diamond 2 premade with Jungle, Support and Mid.
It's definitely possible to win, and I didn't lose every game against a premade. However, I'd appreciate a more level playing field by getting a 4-man premade on my side when facing a 5-man. To even up the numbers. How often do I see a 3-man and 2-man premade being matched together against 5 soloists? It just shouldn't happen with the frequency that it does, I feel.
Considering there's no hard evidence to substantiate my claims, I wanted to ask what everyone else's experiences are?
