Are we ever getting a solo queue option back?
Lyte said it would take weeks, it's been months now, solo players are completely dumped on with the changes dynamic queue brings, and it's like a civil war within this game, a lot of people actually really hate that they can't play ranked without a group of 3 or more and actually expect a good outcome
I hate it for the fact that it basically encourages people who have no business playing ranked to queue up in large quantities and to decimate the integrity of bronze/silver/gold making them all actually start to mesh into one rank at this point.
Dynamic queue has really degraded the quality of ranked play and matchmaking in general, the teams are more interested in having fun than actually winning, and I know some of you will be very very very VERY triggered by this point, but ranked is not just for having fun, it's supposed to be to test your skill and to get an accurate idea of where you match up in the ladder, so these casuals are actually making this much less accurate by flooding the ladder and lowering the standard of play below platinum.
I also received my primary role maybe 60% or more of the time i joined in solo queue as people had the expectation that they would fill if they couldn't get their role, and people would work together to make the team decent at least(in most cases, I know there's trolls who just join games to be a piece of crap) but in dynamic i almost never get my role, maybe 10% of the time or less, and people who did get their role are highly unlikely to work with the team and trade if someone gets stuck in a bad spot, they'd rather get their way and lose, because again, they do NOT care about ranked, they are just on to play a video game with their friends in the ONLY competitive game mode, made for testing your skill, because they're able to do this without any repercussions to them, and this to me says matchmaking failure, so on top of having poor players who don't actually care about their rank in ranked, I also can't play a role that I can do well on in almost all situations and am forced to learn another one on the fly, kind of like C9 Hai had to do when switched to jungle and went from high challenger to almost falling out of master into diamond, now imagine a normal player with normal skill having to do this constantly, there's no chance of them reaching their old rank again without having a constant flow of quality reliable players online to play with
I get that this works fine in silver, but I don't have 2-4 other friends on in high gold to high plat at all times when I want to play, so i've literally just not been playing ranked at all, I want to play again, please bring back a viable queue for solo players, because Dynamic is not viable for us currently, the match making is too awful, and you won't allow us to queue as one role(which would fix this entirely, but you're Riot, so fuck us.)
