I don't deserve to be flamed because I duo

I regularly duo with my brother, we enjoy gaming together and League has been our main game for 2-3 years now. In that time, I have never been flamed as much for duo-ing as I have this season. The second either of us has a bad game (or both, because you know, it happens) we are often told stuff like "shit duo trolling" or "dodge next time you get this duo".

Look, everyone is frustrated in some way with the state of the game this season, but not all solo players are the innocent victims of the big bad monster that is DQ. In fact, in my experience this season, solo players have often been the most toxic. I've played with and against premades and have found them to not be nearly as toxic. I've also found that people flame me a lot less when I solo queue as opposed to duo-ing, so why the hate? I actually got chat restricted for starting to talk back to these people because I was sick of it - and sure I can mute, but then I can't actually communicate with teammates, which creates the problem solo players complain about that premades ignore them

So something to keep in mind for solo players out there - you aren't entitled to flame just because you have a problem with the system. People who enjoy playing with friends/siblings are not your punching bag for "supporting" said system. Maybe consider that if you're so toxic with premades, you might actually be the one who is ruining the experience for them, not the other way around

I expect people will downvote, but I got tired of being bitched at basically for playing with my bro, so that's my 2 cents. I see posts daily on boards about how people are matched with 4 man teams every second game and how it ruins the game. Maybe it's time you considered the other side of things
