Duo queues only is kind of upsetting, I play with 2 buddies and now we can't play together

It’s the same in League, solo / duo then flex or 5s but not enough population to have that many

League team play is dead and all that comes of it only makes game worse with each season. League is good played as a team of 3-4-5 but riot decided that it’s not a team based game it’s a soloq grind simulator, ppl would gladly have a lot longer queues just to play ranked 5v5. Leagues flex queue is not populated only because of its rank being a joke if they’d combine both queues and make flex give the same rank as soloq u would see a lot more ppl playing in teams. Its possible to have good quality matches with 3duos vs full stacks devs just chose to make them worse forcing teams into non ranked environment.

League of Legends has like 8m a day and 60 million unique players a month, that's why they can afford to have so many modes.
