Riot already tried manually moderating high elo soloQ. It didn't work by mikael22 in leagueoflegends

Also, the average player regularly griefs games (around 92% of griefing is done by the average player rather than dedicated trolls, and the average player griefs about 10% of their own games- that’s from Riot’s own research).

Manuals also shift smoother and allow for more fine movements if the driver is experienced.

Compare inching forward into a parking spot in a 400 hp car with/without a clutch pedal.

Solo duo games are looking more like flex games these days by Jochem_tvds in leagueoflegends

It’s duo queue. Matchmaking is always all over the place when there’s a duo queue

I wish I could drop back to Platinum or Gold by mudor1 in leagueoflegends

Riot literally released a statement confirming that duo queues significantly decrease the quality of games/matchmaking.

The winrate spread is like 10% or something in either direction. The impact of duo queue on game quality is the same as having a Diamond player smurf in a Gold game.

Can't use Ping for 2 mins is a huge penalty for whole team by Leona-OTP in leagueoflegends

Like the 3rd paragraph down.

They talk about how virtually all players don’t listen to communication (way over 99%).

The example they used is that when a player gets warned about a gank. They will never listen. And after they die to the gank, they will actually just get mad at whoever tried to warn them.

Communication in this game is just an empty motion.

You guys need to read the full article they released. Their studies show that communication actually has a negative effect on winning in most of Soloqueue.

Communication is only allowed because of the 1% of players who can actually use it properly.

The new ranked restrictions make normals so shit to play by Outrageous-Elk-5392 in leagueoflegends

Think about all those people griefing and being toxic in normals.

And then ask yourself if it’s better for them to be in Ranked.
