I think Dynamic Q needs to go @RIOT
So currently I'm Gold 4. I'm not a perfect player and I know no one is. But I do think it's fair to match people up against the same elo, in other words, people with the same mindsets. I recently won a game where I found out the enemy Kennen (I was the mid laner this game) was in his PLACEMENTS and had never played Ranked before. I think this is only only unfair for me, but also for that Kennen. I don't play ranked to play against people who clearly don't understand the game well, let alone the champion they're playing. I'm also tired of having Silvers on my team. I know there's some who are pretty good, but there's also some who don't get anything that's going on. In that same game with the Kennen, we had a Gold 2 on our team. Riot doesn't seem to understand that they're pretty much putting 5th graders in with 12th graders. I mean that's the idea isn't it? I think most people can agree that MOST of the time, between Bronze-Gold there's different mindsets. And not only having different mindsets but different levels of skill. And that's only half the problem. I don't enjoy being forced into picking my premade team or being put with a premade team. I was always a solo player and enjoyed solo ranked before this. (I'd play with friends in norms, but just myself in ranked.) I know Riot tried making ranked better, but being forced into playing ranked Teams isn't very fun and doesn't show the individual skill of a player.
