So SoloQ won't always be dynamic? Thank god... Wish there was a solo queue with no duos, that would be amazing. Where can I read up on the ladder/queue system?
The new soloq absolutely fucking sucks. So many people are dodging and i dont understand why. The actual pick ban phase is twice as long and when you add on the dodges its down right insane. I've had over 30 minute timers to get into a game several times. It's a running joke in skype chats recently. Everyone I've asked has experienced the same thing. My record so far is 9 games dodged and a 37 minute timer.
I'm pretty pissed off that ranked teams are removed. Me and a couple of buddies from Gold 1 to Diamond 4 worked together to get a team to plat last season. We'd find time and play together and it would be a big thing for us, slowly making progress as a team through the ladder. Yes, we can play DQ now but a) we can't play with diamonds+golds on the same team, and b) the sense of being a team is totally lost, which brought us so close last season.
I don't mind it cause you now get to play with users who typically know what they're doing in the role they're playing. Not so often you get 3 jungle mains in a queue and the 2 that don't get jungle have no idea what they're doing and end up feeding. However, I miss the element of showcasing your ability as a LoL player. What I mean by that is being able to adapt to the role you play. Having to learn other roles/champs to be able to be viable. Not so much anymore.
There are more dodges because people get booted if they don't "lock in" their picks as well as their bans. You can't just click a champ and leave the client, it WILL kick you. It's so annoying.
Dynamic Que is amazing, i love the fact that you usually always get your role, it's just the first month that not everyone is understanding that you actually have to lock in or ban someone or it dodges, it'll take time to learn but i think it's overall better
