"League is better when you play with friends" -Riot

So sure, I think that it is a pretty legitimate statement...However, it isn't right.

The fact that your organized premade is able to stomp the other team is "fun" for you, but comes at the expense of 5 other players makes it unhealthy. Its just like playing an extremely overpowered champion, Its fun for you to play and stomp the game with, but not for the opponent to play against. You see, OP champions get nerfed...but OP gameplay doesn't. I mean, think about it, what downside it there being able to talk with your teammates and know their playstyle after many games played together? ITS FREE ADVANTAGE. Look, I get that DQ is going back to solo que, but god damn, even normals can just feel horrible to play against 5 mans. Why do I have to sit through 20 minutes of 5 man rotations, feeling helpless, virtually nothing I can do as a solo VS a 5-man hive-mind-monster, while my 4 non-premade teammates are sitting in the same boat "attempting" to get organised with the strangers on their team. While the other team is laughing on their voice coms, spaming that champion mastery when they didn't do shit and their teammates did all the work. Look I get that you are a bot lane main and want your support on voice with you, duo que is fine, But 5 man vs 5 solo is NOT. I'm not saying "remove 5 man" just play that shit against other 5 man groups EVEN IN NORMALS

Again/tldr: Fun for YOU at the expense of the other players

"Playing with friends is more likely to make us money" is more like it. People who play together are likely their biggest spenders. The whales, as they're often known in the free-to-play industries. They've been trying to encourage people to get their friends into the game forever, DQ was just the most blatant attempt to do it by pretty much literally giving them ELO if they did.

Whenever I complain about op champion I can hear that I can play it aswell so it is fine. Using this logic go play with your friends, not solo. For some people playing alone just seems boring while playing with friends is much more funny. What do you want to do with that? If duo queue is fine and dq will be removed then what else has left?

yeah but its almost like you seem to think that I said 5 man should be removed. When I just said that 5 man groups should play with other 5 man groups. Its just unfair to the solo players

I have never encoutered more premades in enemy team team nor in my. It was always equal so I guess it kinda is like that.
