make 5 stacks queue in normal queue instead of a seperate queue to improve queue time for 5 stacks and prevent boosting (until the game has a high enough playercount to find matches in 5 stacks)

right now if you 5 stack literally every game will be against the same team

#

usually nk players

#

id rather face a 5 stack as a solo queue than queue for 40 minutes as a 5 stack to fight the same people i fought 40 minutes ago

#

and currently most of the top players are fairly equal in skill so if you open 5 stacks to normal queue they wouldnt just dominate every match

I feel like they definitely need to widen the matchmaking, because especially in higher and lower elo it just contributes to extremely long waiting times. I don’t think 5 stacks should be allows to play solo queues though. Maybe have 5 stacks, 3 stacks and 2 stacks all in the same pool, so a 5 stack can load in against a trio and duo that queues. Then again, the issue that one team will just have a communicative and coordinated advantage which is probably why it’s not right now. Still, I feel like it would make it more enjoyable than just being stuck in queue

That’s a good suggestion too

#

From my experience 5 stacking many of my matches have been against diamonds and platinums meanwhile I’m punk master, so opening the queue will make the matches more fair even if they’re not fighting another 5 stack they’re still fighting people closer to their rank and skill level

Rather than only searching for other 5 stacks and finding a bunch of mediocre players…
