@RIOT A Possible Solution To A Problem That The Forums Brings Up About Dynamic Queue.

One of the problem people have been talking about DQ is being matched with a premade of 4 when they are a solo queuer.

My solution is if a solo player is queued in and is matched with a pre-made of 4 on their team. Notify the player when the game is found and tell them they will be matched with a premade of 4, giving them an option to accept or deny being matched with the premade.

Example:

Match found!

You will be matched with a premade of 4. Do you accept? Yes/No

Additionally, give them a reward for playing with said premade if they accept.

LP bonus for winning ( 5 Bonus LP.)
LP reduced for losing ( take only 75% of LP Loss.)

The LP solution is one that will never work, your LP gains are determined by your winrate and the mmr of your/enemy team. giving less or more will create situations where you will climb regardless of winrate.

You could however dish out bonus ip.

How would it create situations where you will climb regardless of winrate? If you keep loosing all the time your LP gain would be 10 and less and having a bonus of 5 won't help the loss of having 20+ LP loss (18-20ish with the 75% reduction.)

Let's say you're at the perfect level. 1 win for every 1 loss against teams with the exact same mmr. But if they were a solo queue in your system, they would start rising up the ranks until your bonus is offset by an increased loss ratio.

The result would be an elo that the solo queue doesn't deserve.

Its not like queue up with a premade of 4 happens often. They can't abuse it if its rare lol.

with the amount of games being played, it happens VERY often.

my last 2 solo games were with a premade duo vs a trio and one vs a trio+duo. where do you draw the line?

Are people seriously not readying the post? I only talked about being forced to play with 4 people who queued together when you are a solo queuer.

So a premade duo and trio is irrelevant to this post.
