Please let us queue with our friends in CC

[Xel]

I don't want to queue with my friends for any other reason than the overpowering desire to join forces with those who aren't clearly sniffing glue.

Would it result in more wins? Most likely.
Would it make others feel weak and powerless? Absolutely, ergo it will never happen.

I don't really agree. If you get to queue with your friends and be at the same time, that should mean the same for the other team that also gives them just as much of an upper hand. I've also queued by doing the countdown with friends, landed on the same team, and still lost. Also, in casual it shouldn't matter who wins or loses, just have fun.

Sure, there may be downfalls to this but at least we can play with our friends and enjoy PvP with them.

Just change CC to be pre-made teams for ranked, and casual CC is for random teams.


Fixed.

I think people want it the other way around

For casual;
People don't want to have casual taken seriously so joining with friends makes sense.

For rank;
I've had a few talk where not everyone wants to premake a team in rank and want to solo but some want to be able to make a team for rank. So several(including myself) have mention two different ranks. One for solo queue only and another that allows you join with a team. I think solo should be included to the premade team option to help fill empty spaces. I've had PvP games where we had 5v5, had one random help us fill in a spot and manage to get win while also fairly losing to some. Just a choice whether you want to go with a full team or gamble having a random.


Honestly, I feel these three things would help make everyone happy

Honestly, what I would like to see is either:

1. In Casual and Ranked you can queue however you want between 1-5 players. Teams can be made however the matchmaking puts them together. Just restrict it so that parties will never go against a team of 5 solo players.

Or

2. Split it between Solo, Duos/Trios or Team (full 5) queues. Each option would have a different ladder for Ranked. They can restrict the rewards to your highest rank between the options for all I care, I just want to queue with friends. Some of my friends won't even touch pvp unless they can group and I imagine they aren't alone.
