Dear Riot Games,

Since I first started playing League of Legends about 3 years ago, I've been attached to the sense of teamwork the game offers, in SoloQ but even more so in the atmosphere of playing with friends. So, when me and a few friends finally hit level 30, we couldn't wait to jump into a Team 5v5 to test our teamwork and communication against other like-minded players. It was our little break from the grind of SoloQ, where we could feel comfortable but competitive, grow as friends and as a team. When it was announced that this environment would be removed with the new 'Dynamic Que', the shortcomings began to show. There was no more separation between your SoloQ rank and Team rank, alongside the removal of the more casual side of Ranked 5s.

I fear that it will no longer be a casual team environment; everyone will want to protect their SoloQ ranking, and many aren't comfortable with that.

So I urge you, Riot Games, please keep Ranked Team 5v5 separate from Solo Que, or find a new way to create a distincition between the two.

Sincerely,

The League of Legends player base.
