Riot, please just share anything about the Solo Queue
We need to work out a few implementation details, especially for smaller servers before we can roll out the revamped Solo Ranked alongside its Dynamic sibling. Because Dynamic Ranked is an indisputably better experience for playing with friends, the Ranked Teams queue skips the 2016 season while we begin work to integrate the full team experience into Dynamic Ranked. Expect more details about improved organized play later in the year. To be clear, ranked queues for the 2016 season are:
- Dynamic Ranked
- A few weeks after season start: Solo Ranked
This post was made about a month ago. Within the thread, Lyte was very informative and even answered questions about MMR and placements when the new queue appears. I was actually excited for the new season, after the preseason's discouragement to us solo utility players. I started playing more games, practicing normals, gearing up for the soloqueue...
But here we are now, a few weeks after season start, getting nothing but radio silence to the threads asking about the Solo Queue.
Please, just say anything. Say that it's still in progress. Say that it's coming soon. Say that it'll take a few more weeks. Say that initial testing didn't pan out so you need to reorder some schematics. Tell us some bull that will keep us engaged, but please don't keep giving us nothing.
As a solo player, the number one worst experience in League has always been getting stuck with a premade team of four. Now, I can't even queue up for ranked League without the risk of that nightmare. I'm not interested in that. Please say something to keep me interested in Season 6 of League, because I really want to play some competitive League but I am genuinely losing interest.
And I think other solo players are too.
