You removed dynamic queue, and seemingly are punishing us for choosing solo/duo with autofill

You aren't replying to posts about the subject, there has been no real reason but "wait time". if i had to wait another 10 minutes for a game to make sure i didnt get support, or one of the players on my TEAM wouldnt say "im not going to support" and then pick ap nunu and buy tears... you're ruining the ranked experience RIGHT AFTER WE GOT WHAT WE WANTED. we don't want autofill, i don't see one post on the boards THANKFUL that you have done it, but hundreds of complaints.

For a company with almost no visibility you're doing a hell of a job keeping your customers. and i really don't see why. every season it's a different disappointment from your company. season 4/5 was absolutely great, except when you said you wanted to change the jungle to make it available to more champions you did exactly the opposite. we have the same 4/5 junglers every game, same meta champions. you give us solo/duo, we are grateful. but are rewarded with autofill you give us replays and sandbox, which actually was a surprise after seasons of you saying you wouldn't do it and then you manage to do the same recycled crap year after year and get away with it.

You have to understand that autofill is not helping us, it is creating more toxic environments where people who didnt want the role can troll, afk and feed just for the fun of it because they think there is no consequence. and where is that tribunal you've been working on for the last year? For a company with a lot of resources it seems like a year is a long time for you to be working on a system that gives us the choice to justify some player behavior & moderation.

Thats all for my rant, but eventually one of you is going to have to speak up, and just like you did with dynamic queue you'll probably say "people are really happy with low wait times and autofilling support isnt that bad" but at the end of the season it will be another "WE MADE A HUGE MISTAKE, HERES STUFF TO MAKE UP FOR IT". instead of doing that, be visible

thats all i want.

They did not remove DynamicQ they simply renamed it to FlexQ

What i'm saying is there has to be another solution, players are showing they aren't interested in autofill and would rather dodge. would you not be inclined to do something when players autofill? like an extra lp or something. winning a role you're not good at because you had no choice but to play it... there just has to be a better way

it's because they didn't remove dynamic queue

we have auto-fill because we have ranked flex

if they get rid of ranked flex it will be all perfect then

To add on to this. As mentioned before me. Queue times are so high because of FlexQ exisisting. Riot has already stated that if FlexQ interefered with other queue they would remove it for good and thats exactly whats happening. Flex and Solo simply cannot co-exist yet Riot does not want to admit Lyte's failed system is a problem so they are trying desperatly to make both queues work with autofill feature and its backfiring big time on them.

For whatever reason Riot has a massive boner for Lytes completely bonkers queue system and i cant see them actually following through with that promise to remove it sadly.
