The champion select anonimity is very bad for low ELO with the INSANE amount of bots that you have there. Honestly if you make it even harder to not play with bots, I might just abandon the game. I am already play less and if I can't know if the yuumi, taric, zilean, zoraka or janna is a real human behind the account then I might not play ever again.

I don't get why you focus so much on so many non problems. Sure there are dicks in champion select that will lookup teammates to talk trash but this is like 1% of matches in bottom ELO, on the other hand you have bots every third game.

It always feels that you target expression of anger instead of the issues of why people get so frustrated playing your game

How do you plan on curbing the high-elo betting issue that has been running rampant on tyler1s stream for months now?

Hello! Is there any chance to have a permanent fast paced mode where you can chose you champion? When URF or ultimate spellbook are available I'm literally spamming them.

I like playing ranked, but on some champs I'd just like a quicker / easier difficulty version of league.

Hey there, thanks for answering questions! Will we have the option to disable the loadout recommendations?

If someone is playing like a wintrader and banned as a "false positive", they should have been banned anyways for griefing, why are they in the elo where they are and still playing so bad that they trigger the wintrade (auto) ban?

That's such a bad argument lol, even in perfectly balanced matchups with 10 people on main role with identical MMR after 100 total games you would probably see stomps.
Nobody plays at the same exact skill level, some games people overperform, others they underperform; that's just natural variance. x10 that and you end up with some games being stomps.

Would you rather fight 1 sett sized teemo or 100 teemo sized setts?

Ok I’ll ask (and probably get ignored because this is a touchy issue). in my elo bracket there are known accounts that massively decrease game integrity. Honestly they could be any one of the following 1) are boosted 2) win trading 3) acc share 4) known griefers. Dodging these lobbies is my only defense against playing out these low quality games. Why take that away? These players are not punished because usually it’s a non detectable soft disruption of the game that the system can’t pick up.

On top of that, certain players have beef with other players where they just grief each other on sight. Idk, also the fact that matchmaking is optimized for things like engagement and retention and purposefully gives you manipulated lobbies to manage your rank and prevent climbing. I will admit that if there was one singular way to eliminate dodging except for champion select hostage situations this would be it but this just means I have to play more lower quality games over all which...

Any shot we'll have some adjustments to smurf queue? I keep getting into smurf queue on my 11 year old main account because I don't play enough ranked - and coinflipping 40-50 games to get out of there isn't very enjoyable so I just play normals instead.

Will the new loadout recommendations also be available for ARAM? The rune recommendation sounds great for when you play a champion you are not familiar with.

One other question: will the suggested runes be dynamic and update as the meta changes, or will there be a set template created by rioters?

Basically, how are the rune pages being created?

I was trolled more for picking a champ that im "not familar with" (meanwhile im m7 on a different account)

Honestly it would be nice if Riot focused on getting rid of smurfs (including me)

Botted accounts would be so easy to detect... You dont curb stomp gold elo after int feeding with yuumi in intro bot games

A lot of the changes looks great.

Still cant understand why duos having a competitive place to play is more important then solos having the most competitive environment possible. Surely there are a lot more solo players then duos?

Also, its always felt weird to me that you guys at riot have admitted duos make the soloq experience unfair for solo players (you removed duos at the top of the ladder) but seem to not care about it for the vast majority of your playerbase?

Any chance you could elaborate on the thought process behind these things?

Solo Only Mode: We’re not currently planning to separate solo and duo parties in Ranked. While we still believe in the logic for why this could be a good idea, we first need to make sure that duo players have another place for a compelling competitive experience. Flex queue doesn’t currently meet that bar.

What do you think flex queue needs in order to become a good competitive experience? The way I see it, with LoL being a team game and all, the party queue should be taken just as seriously as the solo queue (if not more so). It also just conceptually feels strange to split the queues into "1-2" and "more than that" instead of "solo play" and "team play".

Finally here :). I'll be around today to answer any questions on this article or anything else in our scope.

Can you expand on goals for filling a similar space to Blind and Normal Draft modes? Does this take the form of new modes/modifications to the normal ruleset?

RNG would've been better off with like any other adc pick

If I remember, he didn't play them cause they were perma banned against him, right?
