Solo Ranked Players are a huge disadvantage!

I was a 1v1 Platinum StarCraft 2 Player on 3 account and for almost 4yrs. I know a well designed system. Ranked solo is unfair for the players that play this game without friends and with random folks every match. I believe easy fix for this would be to make Solo Ranked Random players for all no more teams. Another idea is only allow players to use Red badge Champs in Ranked games.

It's a slight disadvantage, not a huge one. There's more than enough threads about solo queue though.

So first of all, you try to explain why you're qualified and knowledgeable about this subject by bringing up the fact that you were a Platinum player on 3 accounts. As much as I hate to burst your bubble, but Platinum is really much of a big deal in Starcraft. Also, these are just 2 very different games. The fact that you're a player who's dedicated to the game should make anyone qualified enough to state an opinion. Second, all you recommended was to bring back the old system, without Duo-queue. Your last idea was to only allow players to play champions who they have a level 5 mastery and higher? I think I read that correctly? I shouldn't even have to explain why that's a bad idea. On an off topic note, re-read your post before posting it, so many grammar mistakes, like, I'm really bad at English too, but damn son.

It's a pretty big disadvantage. I agree 100% though regarding only allowing champions of lvl 5 mastery.

oh thats ok! a solo badge makes up for the fact that you are at a statistical disadvantage! -Riot. /s

While I personally dont play soloQ,(I prefer to duo atleast, cause I hate playing ranked alone) I sympathize for all solo players who got shafted this season.

Statistically, solo players are left in a pretty even playing field for climbing after the MMR handicaps implemented by Riot.
