Create a solo queue only, so sick of getting stuck with squads where all they do is flame and throw.
Also is constantly abused where you get carries and smurfs and unbalanced games due to the trash matchmaking associated with it.

So you want even longer queue times as the community is split for a third time?
Smurfs try to decieve the matchmaking, how is that the fault of the matchaker?
Honestly solo queue won’t fix any of the player behavior, only removes stacks.
Solo players can also flame and throw, same goes for smurfs and unbalanced games.
Apart from that, yea long queue times.
Solo queue will limit player behavior. It’s much easier to overcome 1 person being garbage than it is 2 or more.
Honestly it would take more DPS out of the system and that’s fine. If anything it will improve playtimes for DPS as the people who abuse the tank and support fast queue get shuffled back into either QP, OQ, or Arcade.
If you want to play with your friends you can do that in Quickplay or Arcade. Those modes are MADE specifically for casual play.
Get them out of Competitive where everyone DESERVES to be on equal footing.
I’ve been saying this from day 1. “Removing stacks from Comp would be best for the game.”

Stacks still have individual players, it’s not the most common case that if one person in the stack is bad that everyone in that stack is bad.
It’s more likely that if one person in a stack gets tilted and starts yelling that their friends are going to back them up due to tribal behavior.
Not everyone is bad around bad apples, I understand that, but when you’re trying to limit bad behavior in general it’s best to put everything into its own separate box. We want players to be on equal footing and stacks are inherently not equal, even if the matchmaker thinks they are.

It’s the fault of the matchmaker in that it allows uneven duos/groups to get lower SR matches where the diamond or whatever in that group can seal club the oposition. If the high players are boosted/having a bad day or is not in a critical role the silver in that same stack (impossible i know) is often WAY out of his depth and will throw games not even knowing he does.
Groups back eachother up and often joke around and are toxic together - People behave differently when not in a group.
Couldn’t agree with this post more. Gets very old seeing “We’re not stacked” teams with low progression levels whilst there names are

Clearly, not stacked.
Just nerf the SR gain from 6 stacking, and STOP LETTING SOLO QUEUERS LOSE FULL SR FROM SOLO QUEUEING INTO STACKS.
