ability to play in party in ranked and adding 2v2 and 3v3 game modes

4 stacking ranked would be miserable for other players, it should be like faceit where its a max of 2 people per party, also 2v2 and 3v3 modes might kill ranked q, perhaps this feature is best for LTMs

Why should this make 4v4 miserable for players? If there are two people in a group, that's not bad, in principle, but why can't you assemble a whole team of four at once, even if you consider that there's some gap in their ratings? 2 vs. 2 and 3 vs. 3 are unlikely to kill the ranked queue. Yes, they might even be empty. Most likely, 3v3 will be the most empty, but 2v2 is something like a flash match. There are a lot of 2v2 flash tournaments at ranked ds servers. If they do them, it means there's demand for them. They don't often do 1v1 or 3v3, mostly if it's a small flash tournament, it's 2v2, if it's a larger one, it's 4v4. If they add these modes for a limited time, then they can understand their effectiveness. At the very least, they can conduct such an experiment, and, depending on the result, draw further conclusions about introducing these modes. But I think it’s worth trying, at least for 1 ranked season.

And the fact you said that you know what you're talking about means that you are an idiot

#

Hence why I called you an idiot

# cold coyote You obviously are not a pro player and neither am I but I don't logically see ho...

First, read what was said, it was about pro players can make a party of 4 players and smash all the lobby, of course not on their main accounts, at the beginning they play against noobs, and here it is about why they humiliate themselves with these noobs? And not about the fact that they just humiliate themselves because they play well, isn't it clear who plays on anranged acs? Either this alt belongs to pro and he smurfs, or a beginner, or something in between

I could stack with 3 other tier 1s and literally win every game

#

you obviously don't know how the game works

T1 should play with players at their own level, not with noobs. You probably won't be assigned to T1 players if you're not playing at the same level, and if they're using alt accounts, it's a violation. For example, you could get banned on KPC for this. Therefore, it's important to consider this, such as reporting player due smurfing

# wary willow how exactly is it humiliating for pros when they end up 10king

You might not understand what I'm talking about, but I'm saying that if pro players want to make a full team of four players and dominate every game, they'll still face resistance in their rankings, and it's not guaranteed that they'll win every game. If they want to create alt accounts and do it this way, it'll be humiliating for them to play against beginners who are new to ranked games.

There is a reason tier 1 nack/kpc get zero games when it's tier 1 only

You say its easy but whats your answer then

i like the idea of 2v2 2 stack queues

#

just would be hard to implement considering the low player numbers and taking elo into consideration

quasi zodiac
#

Just add report to player due smurfing

cold coyote
#

yeah that's smart

I wonder what's so funny about this? If this practice is truly feasible. If you record your games, or at least record a few moments where you can see a player isn't playing at their level, send the link to the video to kpcg, and wait a bit, then that person will be banned, and the problem will be solved.

I'm not sure about the state of ranked as i havent played in a while, but top players used to get like one game an hour max since their ratings were too high

#

Playing on an alt was the only option if you wanted to enjoy some ranked gameplay

If you're now able to get games fast even as a high ranked player, then that's really good

#

some people just want to play ranked games, not wait for ages for a single game

#

Which is why some people were " smurfing "

cold coyote
#

Queues take less time now but the matchmaking is awful

#

Still takes about 10 minutes when there’s different people playing not just the same lobby requeuing into each other

cold coyote
#

So “smurfing” means nothing

#

Smurfing is when you manipulate the elo system with new accounts to put you into easy lobbies, but the lobby is the same even if you’re on a master account vs a silver one

Perhaps the developers did this on purpose to keep this mode alive.

#

u and another player gets 2 npcs while other team gets 2 players 2 smurfs or 2 players 1 smurf 1 npc

#

smurfing in ranked just affects the ranked experience negatively and should be banable

#

or the match maker should work on number of kills/death of everyones last 5 games

cold coyote
#

so it makes no difference

#

the player is the same

#

but in NA its literally just higher rank NA people playing on silver-gold NA accounts

#

dont get many asia/eu ppl in our games

#

but yea ur right but at the same time a master can get in the same lobby as a silver-gold player

#

so smurfing doesnt do anything

hushed trellis
#

maybe for na

#

not for asia

#

it ruins soo many games in asia

#

so smurfing should be banable

#

it not being banable coz it doesnt affect 10 games played in a region doesnt make sense when its ruining 50 games in other region
