Fundamental Flaw of Dynamic Queue: Solo's and Premades on the same ladder.

You can't put them on the same ranking ladder, that just doesn't work. A Diamond V who climbed to it by premade 5's is MUCH different the a Solo player climbing to Diamond V. They got there completely differently in completely different circumstances.

Whether ones better or not is up for debate, but thats besides the point. You cannot have two different groups of players playing on the same ladder, it doesn't work and it undermines the value of everyones rank. No amount of irrative (Idk how to spell the word) improvements can fix that. You can't have two different types of groups competing on the same ladder.

I wonder how many more months It'll be before Riot even addresses this.

Riot will likely not address it, they think dynamic Q is perfect, and just needs tuning here and there, and they justify it by saying "your the same rank, so there for the same skill level" completely looking past that if a solo queue player goes against a premade of 3 or more people on voice chat, they will surely lose unless the premade is playing to troll and have fun, but most of the time they are playing to win and to abuse the power they hold over solo queue players.

You can tell Riot is turning this game into the next social WoW, you get rewards for being in a party, vs being solo queue not getting anything at all. Next you will see "post your win's with your champions selfie on twitter and get bonus IP boosts!" Just like blizzard did in WoW with stupid ass selfie cams....

At this point, i doubt they will ever do anything, they already basically said they can't release solo queue alongside dynamic queue, and all they said on the Q&A was "we are aware of the issues and radio silence is unacceptable, be patient we are working it out" and here we are months later still getting shitted on by this unfair as match making system.

I think dynamic Q is a cool idea champ select, banning, and maybe even lane picking wise, but the actual match making tied into it is just not fair. And it's not like Riot can just undo dynamic Q at this point, even though that's what they need to do till they can figure out how to have a solo queue players only and premades only without completely shitting on queue times.

I always find it funny that they got rid of team builder, where you got the EXACT lane, champion, and role you wanted, with a 1-10 minute queue. Now we have dynamic queue where it is 50/50 chance, you can't ever duo with anyone because you don't know the lane you will get, and no one ever wants to trade lanes or roles EVER, because this is obviously the most caring community ( SARCASM ALERT).

Ranked is such a joke now, i don't even bother playing it, i will stick to normals where i don't have to suffer loss of rank because i went against a 4 man premade on voice chat against my completely random team of solo queue players.
