My experience with dynamic Que
It's been about a year since i last played due to lack of a computer... I returned an was hoping to reach gold 1ish again, only to find out that you can now que with a full party in ranked. I figured nothing of it and have been playing since... big mistake...
Having been away most of my friends either deleted me or simply have improved beyond my tier. An solo queing has become a nightmare... It mainly become a who has the better or more partied members. From 3-4 man ganks babysitting one lane, generally top or mid. Or even toxic teams of partied groups just blaming those who aren't with them, all the while refusing to communicate possible plays. An if you decide to try an call for a play, you just get ganged up on saying it's wrong or other insults.
I really hope Solo que returns because despite my near even win loss ratio... it's become so unenjoyable because of this... I miss the actual competitive aspect.. knowing that you either carried the team, or provided so much that it helped keep things going for your team. It doesn't even seem like your own skill can do much now vs teams who just push one lane over and over an wreck that laner at 7 mins by 3-4 man diving them, all the while no one on that team will leave lane to try an counter the endless push...
I can tell when games are without parties, because I seemingly do so much better. Im not a type to go purely for kills, i like glorified supps and Massive tanks. I love knowing that my builds and plays will determine the outcome of team fights. An when neither team is 3-4 man partied it's just so much more enjoyable.. the games are closer, not stomps. Neither team seems to rage, besides when AFker or DC's happen. However I've noticed what should be obvious by now, when teams are partied, they just focus a lane and hard camp it. resulting in tilt, rage and blame.
The whole Que system itself doesn't even seem to try an pair groups with other groups... I've check countless times and it's either one team have 3 an another has 0, or one team has 4 and the other has a dou. It's very rarely ever been an even 3 to 3 or 4 to 4.
If i had one other complaint that wouldn't be dynamic que.. it's the Devour jungle item... it causes 0 activity from the jungler, least at silver/gold tiers. An from what I've seen, they are the extremely cocky type of player. The "just play safe till I get devour, ill carry" then make horrible plays... I remember the days of Feral Flare, but atleast back then you saw people still gank... now it's just 4 vs 5 till 20 mins. anyhow this ends my rant about this ranked season.. i really hope solo que makes it's return and that we can once again have competitive skill based play rather than who has the better group of friends...
