if someone were to ask me, what do you think ranked is about?

ill tell him straight up, luck. if you dont believe this, its mostly because you are the ones dragging down your team or you are the luckiest person in the ranked system. knowing im going to start up a agme and get a 7-14 top and a vayne that is suiciding constantly just makes me confident that this game is more about the team that riot hands to you than you actually having skill.

match me with teammates, not people i have to carry.

The problem I think they have is that queing with YOUR OWN ranked team does not further your personal ranking at all... If they simply changed it so that if you were playing with your 5 man premade group, that it would also give you LP for your personal ranking for solo and such, then you wouldn't have to make the excuse of having a terrible team (because honestly it happens way too much to act like it's just a myth or that it's not the real problem).

I rather them not have a "solo queue" rank (which mind you a lot of end season rewards are based off of) or a team rank, but rather a Personal Ranking, and your Team Ranking. Queuing up with your 4 friends and pwning all the teams you come up against should definitely contribute to your own personal ranking, but solo queue can still be an option for people who don't want to get a team together or don't know a lot of people who play league. Duoing and solo queues would be much better fitted for those people, but the only real loss they are getting is the potential for some bad teammates or they will miss out on end of season team rewards. Hey, promoting people to act more like a community instead of being paired up with people you don't know nor will probably play much with again could do the community some overall good. It could also help in establishing the need to work with teammates if they learn how important it is to help their friends and they might apply it to games with people they don't necessarily know.
