Does anyone remember New Coke?

Years ago, Coca-Cola had what they thought was a brilliant product to replace their already successful delicious beverage. However, much to their dismay the public was extremely displeased with the new Coke. Everyone thought it was horrible! It was a terrible flavour and left a horrible after taste. Customers were crying bloody murder and berating the company for their lack of foresight.

They didn't let this little miss step get them down though. You know what they did? They went RIGHT back to their own formula, ditched the terrible new formula and branded it "Coca-Cola Classic". Everyone showered Cocacola with praise.

Don't worry, eventually riot will admit to their folley of removing solo queue and give us "Classic Queue".

You realize that was a marketing ploy, right? The intention was to generate media attention to increase sales.
