Which do you prefer? Recently I have been playing alot of Solo queue, and seem to be going 3:2 W/L, but I was just interested if you guys have any preference and if you prefer the duo queue, what two lanes do you guys prefer? When I was playing with friends it was AD/Sup, but I know some challenger friends that play Jungle/Top, all preference I guess.

Also I'm looking for a good OCE player that I can form a strong static duo, any lane but preferable Support.

Thanks!
 
Duo queue with certain people, I never do premade bot lane, honestly it's just horrible.

I prefer jungler / mid premade. Makes life a lot easier when both are playing carries, especially at low levels, very easy to have games over and done with in the 20 minutes, especially when boosting low levels.

I enjoy solo queue, I normally just mess about with it and play some of the more underrated champs but it's easy enough done.
 
I have a friend i duo queue with a lot. We honestly play any role... We are both good at all, but my worst is mid and his worst is top so between the two of us we always get our role.

We definitely avoid duo bot because the impact we can both make is minimal. Since he's best at adc and I'm best at support, we almost always get fed as fuck in lane (4+ kills by 16 min) but it's just not a good idea to focus on one lane.

Statistically... If two lanes do well and shut down the opponent, you win. So duo queue with whoever you know is good, but avoid duo bot.

I personally prefer SoloQ, although it's more fun with a friend. Rarely will I DuoQ, unless the person is smurfing or just better than the elo I'm in currently. When I DuoQ with a friend, it's nearly a granted lost, because we troll. :P
 
I prefer duoqing botlane, makes life a hell of a lot easier.

Duo bot is fine, however DuoQ is only worthwhile if both you and your duo, or if either of you are significantly better than the ELO you're playing in - as you'll be matched with more skilled (higher mmr) opponents, and get lower/average skilled opponents yourself (unless the other team has a DuoQ aswell).

I love going botlane as a DuoQ. If you're both significantly better, duoQ'ing botlane allows for impacting games as much as mid and jungle. Carrying games as a DuoQ botlane is more reliant on your game knowledge and how to essentially 2v5, aswell as being mechanically sound with whom you're playing.

I personally DuoQ when both myself and my Duo are far far above the skill level of our and the enemy team. Otherwise you're just disadvantaging yourself. I'll also DuoQ with an average/bad/whatever player if I'm personally far superior than all the other players.

I just like duoing because its more fun.
 
If I'm trying to actually climb, I'll never duo queue, no matter how good my friend is. Especially near the beginning of the season, duoing in higher tiers tends to attract the trolls whose MMR is low, and yesterday it resulted in me losing 6 in a row (5 games with an intentional feeder/leaver). In lower tiers, duo is the best way to go if you have a friend who's actually better than the people you're playing with/against.
 
IMO DuoQ just means one less player with downsyndrome on your team.
 
I only duo with a couple of people, most of which are good friends who are very capable ADC's. Other than that it's all solo

I play most duo with my best friend, he's a great supp and I'm a nice adc, but sometimes I like to play solo on other lanes with some great music.

Ive had the best win-rates doing duo with jungle + support, you're support can ensure bot lane wins and the jungle controls the game, combo that with the support and jungle making plays + engaging it works really well
 
I still think that mid and adc are the easiest roles to play, yet so many people disagree with me ..
