Can we apply for some % duo penalty exemption if you have played say 200+ games with someone?
Because the penalty is now +400 we're just queuing into top 5 players on the regular with limited chances to win
The penalty has reached a point where we will now just lose most games as a duo -> rating decreases which mean you win gain it back in solo queue -> but my partner doesn't play solo which means his rating will only ever decline 😂
It's probably not that common but its getting a little comical for our situation ...

The duo benefit in reality is probably somewhere between 0-50 elo max and its a shame smurfers forced the change to make the penalties extreme if your elo is not similar. Hurts people doing it legatimately

Would be nice to revist this, the amount of legends we queue into is a little much xD

I really wish this would be looked at ! Appreciate it's niche but does enjoyment of the game greatly. Why we queue with +400 elo added on really reduces our game quality. Mechanisms that incentivize you to not team with friends should be carefully implemented and this one is too catch-all

At the start of the season when all players are low elo it's OK but the last half of the season is brutal.
