Well I think i don't need to explain why people smurfs and why it's an issue. I like the soloQ, but most high elo player just smurf to keep duo-trio stack and avoid any restriction.

And on top of that, getting drafted with bronze peoples (like, they are literally bronze) when facing ppl avoiding the new system and likely a 3 stacks of GM and legends are just painful. Especially if you don't play an SS tier hunter for ranked.

I like the soloQ, but only if it's fair for everyone, rn it's far from being the case.

Smurfs will always be an issue tbb. It sucks but that's just how it is. Honestly not much tc can really do about it. It's really difficult to punish smurfs due to how hard it is to prove that that person is smurfing.

Then the restrictions can't just get removed due to how much coordinated play beats non coordinated play.

The mmr issue is true tho. I for some reason only got silver and bronze players on my games 3 hours ago. And I was facing players with the skill of legends who were duo stacking. And then the game feels like it's trying to force you to play specific hunters due to just how much it favors them in ranked.

And honestly the community is toxic so no matter what it'll be hard to get them not to smurf, even if it's to play with friends smurfing is honestly jist really bad. For very clear reasons.

And we know why that is. People just dont want to play solo Q on their mains because of inplace restrictions for masters and legend+

The solution is a Trios (Solo-Only) queue. The game will never be successful without this. Come on TC just do it

not enough players to support that

not enough players because lack of support

of a solo queue feature

Nah the solution is not to just completely remove people's ability to play with each other

Oh I mean that would be ideal except we don't have the playerbase for it right now

#

Atm it would be terrible. But it's a good idea for a possible future where there's lots of players

i'm pretty sure they've said they have no plans of doing it. which imo even with more players i don't think it'd be that good of a thing

It's a Queue Fragmentation vs. Player Retention dilemma

Just let people play with their friends

Current system is fine. GM/Legend needs to be entirely a solo queue thing, below that it matters less.
