Dynamic Queue brings out the hypocrisy in this community
First, people complained that Solo Queue was toxic and that it wasn't a good indicator of true skill.
Now people are saying that Solo Queue is the ONLY indicator of true skill and that individual skill trumps team-based play (which is the entire premise of this game), even though the meta has been constantly shifting TOWARDS teamfighting and teamwork and AWAY from solo carrying.
This is not Call of Duty. You can climb to Gold alone in solo queue by communicating well with your team and being a team player.
I like Riot's move. I will probably never use the 5 man option but will probably be queuing up with 3 or so of my friends to play.
Furthermore, they have STRESSED that 5 man premades will almost EXCLUSIVELY be matched with other 5 man premades. Yet people KEEP citing the TSM game vs Diamond 1s, which will once again, only happen frequently in a place of league where players are already sparse as it is. This isn't a problem of the Dynamic Queue System as it is a population problem.
I do agree that stuff like cs-count and warding and maybe other metrics should be incorporated into determining player skill, but this has been an issue since before Dynamic Queue.
This game is all about cooperation, and has never been about the individual. Its the reason why the Nasus with 1000 stacks who always stays top lane wont win a game. If you want to play solo queue, you will play against other solo queue players. You will get those 2 games out of a 100 where you are matched with a premade of 4, and you can easily join them on voice chat if communication is that much of an issue to you.
"BUT I'LL GET REPORTED BY THEM AND TROLLED"
As if this isn't also a possibility in Normals, right?
Anyway, just my two cents.
Downvote me to oblivion.
