I would appreciate when u are duo Queing that there are basically two ways to be match maked, First: U are first one and duo mate last one or u are 4th and ur duo mate last one. That´s kinda ****, I was with my duo differented about 7 elo, but we never been first and second or first and third. Dunno why, may be unlucky, but we did about 20 games and always were in that setup that I already wrote.

1) What is your Summoner name?
Tekno Link
2) What was the game mode? (Normal, Normal Draft, Ranked)
Ranked
3) What was the map? (Summoner’s Rift, Dominion, Twisted Treeline)
SR
4) Were you queuing with a friend?
a. If yes, how many friends? (1, 2, 3, 4?)
b. If yes, and ranked, what were you and your friends’ Elo(s)?
c. If yes, and normal mode or normal draft, what was the Level and win/loss of you and your friends?
no


5) If you are below Level 30, do you have a Level 30 account?
no

6) Any specific reason(s) you felt the game was unbalanced?
The reason was that our lowest pick was at least 50 ELO lower than the other's lowest pick, and our highest pick was 10 ELO lower than the other team's highest pick. This is after I added 24 ELO to all champs to negate the elo loss/gain.

7) A screenshot of the end-game score
Sorry, don't have.

Leavers should lose the elo of the whole team and the teams elo should stay where it was, this prevents people more from leaving and if they do the people that stays won't get punished for it.
Saying that it will be "abused" by some people leaving because people rage at them so much to leave isn't a valid argument, There is both an ignore button and everyone knows that humankind will get mad over someone not doing what they should do etc.
Doing this would also result in those that leave just because someone tells them that it's better to get Banshee's veil then Randuin's omen because we got perma AoE slow and they don't have any AD champions (very uncommon but just an example) will maybe actually start to evolve their gameplay and listen to the other players and stay in the game to do that, instead of just plainly leaving and not really losing anything on it.

Sorry for the wall of text.

Here is an example, me and my friend Wabo went into ranked and we got matched with three people that did not chat, teamwork or have skill beyond that of lv20 players. Very obviously a 'match-made lose'. Even though we totally dominated our lanes we couldn't do anything other than to watch our team-mates jump in and get themselves killed one by one every single time.

EDITED ::: Saved the screenshot, thank you!

THANK YOU for this! Fantastic to see actual work in progress and to be asked for input.

I'll start collecting data.

Generally, I would expect to have to play over a 1000 games in Normal before I reach my true hidden ELO (which for a casual player like myself is very high and rather offputting!). The community experience in Normals has scared me off even trying ranked yet.

I won't lie. The highest elo I have had is 1248. My experience with ranked games is probably all of 20 games actually played. That includes season 1 & 2. I have played games where I have gone 12/1/6 as an example but as stated earlier it is hard for one person to carry a whole team. Especially if you have a lane that's really fed. Like one that springs to mind is a Kennen mid on 1/12/0. Sure we all tried to help him, we even were nice and told him to stop over extending. He didn't listen at all. I am not sure why if I end up with a better score personally than anyone on the losing & winning team why I should lose elo. Should I lose it because I couldn't carry 4 people hard enough?

I agree that the system is currently rather flawed. I will do my absolute best to participate in improving it and will share some data sooner or later. However, I have one concern... A lot of people seem to blame it on the DUO-QUE. While I am aware it makes the system messed up, I can't imagine playing without it. Whatever you do, please do not remove the feature to que with your mates, it makes the game A LOT more entertaining. So yeah, edit it as you want, but can you please assure us that you won't remove duo que?
