This is coming from experience, a bad experience.

I think the matchmaking is broken. More than half of all the matches I've been in for the past week or two has been my solo queue team getting matched against premades (4+ people in clans, 3+ in siege). And of course, most of these same matches are matches I've lost horribly to.

Its safe to say I'm a bit miffed at this. Its completely unfair for solo queue teams to be matched against coordinated groups of players, because the premades have the advantage of voice communication to better coordinate their actions whereas solo queue players only have VGS commands.

Also, a small note: I play casual and only casual.

and you don't play conquest (or they changed the 3 person max from conquest, becauxse as far as I know you need to go into premade conquest if you want more (playing with 4 persons is impossibruu))

Yes, that is correct, I do not play conquest. I play everything, but conquest. The meta there is much too rigid for me to enjoy playing it and I made the mistake of not playing conquest when I was level 1-29. Add to the new conquest in the PTS and everything I learned up to that point is possibly gonna get tossed out the window.

Regardless, that doesn't change the fact that everything except conquest has me and my solo-queue team matched against better coordinated teams. I don't think I should have to trade fun for not getting stomped by premades.

conquest is too stressful 5 me.

I hate when you're doing okay, but one lane (usually duo, since it requires teamwork from the very beginning) screws up, and you're done.

I played a match yesterday after centuries of not playing conquest for said reason, and this Apollo and Aphrodite duo lane was so (insert not-so-polite word here) bad.

Initially we said nothing and just told them stuff like, "Aphro you're support, remember to ward." and "Apollo, go split push because you're Apollo." But guess what we got in return? Total number of wards put down in duo lane: 0.

The worst part is, the Apollo bm-ed three of us so hard with his bad English that I will not stress, and kept saying he had top player damage, which is so surprising since he is Apollo.

We weren't even saying anything about the Aphrodite who fed. 0-12, I think. We never complained, or called her a feeder, or said she was bad. That Apollo, on the other hand, lel. I don't know why I didn't report him, to be honest.

Who would want to keep playing conquest after encountering people like that?

That's a reason why I play more assault nowadays.

The worst players is Bm-ing (also have a good mage and the adc won't be the person having top player damage)
