Just want to point out yet another flaw in the dynamic Queue.

Elo boosting. High Elo players go on smurfs and carry low elo players really high. How do I know this is happening?

Well mostly because I have done it. 2 of my plat friends and I have been carrying our bronze friend out of bronze. He is currently silver 2. the problem with this is that my bronze friend is still bronze skill and can't win a single ranked game without us.

Isn't elo boosting against the rules? Punishment for both the booster & the boosted or something?

Only if you pay for it. Queueing with friends is not against the rules, neither is having more than one account.

Yah no shit, the problem is we are going to be finding players in high gold maybe even plat but un- likely who have been carried there by friends on smurf accounts.

Elo boosting is actually when a higher skilled player plays on a lower ranked account to boost it. This is just two friends carrying another. Not necessarily a major problem, more like a small loophole

Nope this is legal elo boosting.

Since you can que with players within 2 divisions of yourself in dynamic que, they're not elo boosting.
