Pug Sc queue

I just wanted to say after intense testing this afternoon, I really love the new solo queue. Not only had I a whole lot more wins, but, and thats way more important, I had a hell lot of fun and really good fights. There was not one sc I was in, where we or the other side would have ben just stomped out of existence. And I cant remember one occasion today, where one side did not get at least one emblem. So for me, so far, the solo queue is a great success and I am gratefull that it was implemented.

Aside from some bad comps it's been good. Like OP said, no stomps even with bad comps. But I'm gonna rack that up to the sort of PvE nature of KE or at least it discourages blobing.
I know a lot of people hate heavily objective based/PvE scenarios but I think they are perfect for the pug only SC as they allow teams that may have gotten a bad hand a chance to outplay the other team through other means.
Another huge factor to not getting stomped is lack of overall coordination or coherent comp that a premade would usually bring as well. Leveled playing field and all.
Also glad to see duo queing made it in, so you can at least que up with one friend to make it less of a lonely experience.

Glad to hear it, it seems the overall response so far has been a good one, many people seem to be enjoying this

I played some myself before with a DoK/Chosen duo and it was the most fun I have had in any scenario for a long time.

The real test will be during NA time and see what happens then.

I enjoy the current implementation as is but I guess I will see come 3-4 hours how it impacts NA time.
Should also do a decent job of keeping the causals off the forums to complain about premades too.

I wonder how many actually know about it, and how many are still just hitting Queue all...
We'll see how it works. I'm just annoyed, KE is my fav SC! I wonder if we will get a group able KE and swap pug to another every few weeks... Meh.
GL solo/duos!
