Yes there's an entire spectrum of it and Riot and Lyte account for literally zero of it.

Then you should be the first to not generalize your disabilities with those of others. What about bipolar? Antisocial personality disorder? Histrionic? Borderline? Schizophrenics? You can't assume that everyone with a mental illness is going to be exactly like you. Fully 50% of the US population suffers from some kind of mental disorder. There are just as many of them as there are of the ideal, mature gamer that Riot is building systems for.
These people often use gaming as a last refuge from massive real life issues and for Riot to punish them for things they are not capable of changing is cruel and inhumane.

-Every single one of their paychecks could be replaced by the mute button, which already exists.
-Punished players only create new accounts, foisting toxicity off onto new players just starting the game.
-There used to be something called The Tribunal that involved the community in judging such cases, and it worked a lot better than this robot overlord system.
-What about mental illness? Ruthlessly punishing people for chemical imbalances that they have no control over, further damaging their psyches. This will not change behavior, and is a clear mark against Riot from the psychology standpoint.
-Punishment of people who react to trolls verbally rather than the root cause of toxicity in games. Look at the poor bastard a few posts down that got trolled by a silent intentional feeder in his promos and subsequently banned. This seems to be the standard.
-Every decision and change made by Lyte has been to the detriment of the game. Nepotism ruining the most popular game in the world for years straight is not reasonable and it's plain to see: Riot has lost control of this aspect of League.
-Why do they even need a team? Do you see GMs patrolling live games and making reasonable decisions on player behavior? They need to use some of that billion dollars to enact actually *just* oversight in games.
-Create an in-game report system which will alert a GM to toxic behavior; GM enters game and acts according to the situation. Each one is different. Simple, but Riot doesn't want to spend the $$$ to make their game better, they want arbitrary computer programs which gives them superficial moral authority and deniability.
-Fire Lyte. Enact progressive, human GM systems. Unjust punishment only fosters resentment in the punished.

Tahm Kench was at 49% win rate when they started nerfing him in 6.1 (and 3 big nerfs in a row now)
His WR now sits at 44% and he's basically out of the game because he's so weak. It's pretty apparent that the left hand doesn't know what the right is doing now. Riot is just too big anymore.

Patch 6.2 notes
50 champions with higher win rates than Tahm Kench, but he gets the biggest nerf. He's not even pick/ban anymore in Korea, but you see Alistar literally every single game of professional play. Rito pls. The Kench has been benched.
His counters are very strong and they are the ones you always see in this meta. Ryze, Gnar, Trundle, Gangplank, Fiora... champions with meta counters need benign neglect, not extremely heavy-handed nerfs.
7s stack duration was fully needed in the longer toplane. His ultimate passive damage was the only thing that gave him power in trades (what other champion's ultimate damage have you ever nerfed by 50%?). He's now unviable in both bot and top, which is really too bad, considering how awesome of a champ design he is.
For those of you wondering what Tahm Kench is, he's a demon. Not a frog, not a catfish, a demon. Frogs and catfish do not bargain for the souls of men.

The word "shifting" does indeed imply taking the rewards from one queue and bestowing them on another. When you shift from 3rd to 4th gear, you are no longer in 3rd gear. When you use shift on your keyboard, you are using the alternate to that key. When you arcane shift, you move forward into the enemy team and die.

Your Dynamic Queue rank will not affect your Solo Queue rank. That queue will be inviolate and pure, a true and accurate rating of your skill at League of Legends.

Removing rewards from Solo Queue seems punitive and petty. Look at you, getting off on being withholding.
For clarity, I believe that Solo Queue and its corresponding ladder is a greater reward than those which are being removed. But still! C'mawn.

Will we ever be able to poop again during champ select? Add a box-checking option where your intended champion can automatically lock in after the countdown and you will see all complaints about the new mode disappear. How about an Intended Ban checkbox as well, that will automatically ban a champ after your counter ticks down? Champion select taking so long wouldn't be as big an issue if we could get up and stretch and grab some food.
Bravo on Solo Queue. I am very excited to play it, and I expect games will be far more competitive and interesting.
