Featured Game Modes need to use normal game MMR

Call me an asshole, but playing them is next to 0 fun if you only ever get to play with Bronze 1 through 5 people, with the occasional silver. I don't care if I have to wait more than 5 seconds currently to find a match if the game quality is going to be higher. Getting flamed for picking the undoubtedly strongest champ Yasuo in Onslaught difficulty (you block every huge damage attack and you can perma cc entire groups of enemies + long invulnerability and low cooldowns) and having people ragequit because they try to 1v5 mobs that hit them for 50% of their HP is impossible to deal with.

"It's not that serious it's just a fun mode", but if you want to beat higher difficulties you need some kind of idea of what you are doing. Being at the mercy of 4 other people is never fun.

"Just ask 4 of your friends to join" Yeah, I could do that. But it's still a shame that I HAVE to, just to escape from people who don't even bother equipping augments or bother reading what they do in the first place.

You do know this game-mode is tough for everyone, some people in lower elo will be better then people in higher elo in this game-mode as its PVE based and not pve based.

Yeah, let's deny there are very obvious skill differences between a bronze player and anybody above that. You go!

I'm not denying the mode is hard, but I'M not delusional to insinuate that Bronze players can be as good as Diamond players. I play with and against Diamond players in most of my normals, I want the same to apply to fun modes.

A diamond player will have a way stronger grasp on the mechanics and champions they are playing than a bronze player. You can have 2k games on a certain champ, doesn't make you remotely good at it and a Diamond player will still be better than you if you're stuck in Bronze
