1v1 Queue is necessary and GOOD for the 5v5 Queue.

Riot has said that "1v1 is not wanted by the community" and "new queues will split up the community and increase queue times"

But realisitically, 1v1 queue is necessary. I don't particularly want to play it, but I know that a butt-load of people do. How do I know?

What do you see in champ select every time you queue up for a Normal 5v5?

TOP TOP TOP MID TOP MID TOP MID

And what do you know, most people DO NOT want to play the Duo lane, or if t hey do it's with their carry champion because they didn't call Top or Mid fast enough.

Isn't it strange how these solo lanes are all the rage? I wonder what all of these people rushing to get Top or Mid are actually looking forward to when they get into game?

We need to get rid of these people, get them off the Rift and into 1V1 QUEUES which is what they want to play. Less Yasuos going Support because they couldn't call Top fast enough. Less 20/0/0 Master Yi's throwing the game because they think two items make sthem unkillable and start feeding their advantage to the enemy. Less "I'ma carry this" self-important idiots who inevitably become toxic mid-game because they failed or their team made mistakes.

THIS IS IMPORTANT to the health of 5v5. PLEASE finish Magma Chamber and give these kids the edgy and so epic 1v1 experience they want, without all that annoying "teamwork" and "map awareness".

AT THE VERY LEAST, please bring it in as a Featured Game Mode and test what impact it has!

they did have a 1v1 featured gamemode, and most people who want top/mid are calling it because they want to try and "carry" the game. Solo lanes like mid (more then not) can carry if they get ahead. Top can become unkillable due to there tanky nature. I prefer mid lane but that DOESN'T mean i want to 1v1 que? i play mid because i like the champions in the role?

Showdown was 1v1 and, as expected, nobody played it.
