If you've played League of Legends for any period of time whatsoever, you will have seen people talk about "loser's queue".
For the most part, it's people who are really ,tilted raging about how bad their team is, and how good and coordinated the enemy team is. People will often make jokes about loser's queue too.
But sometimes you see even the most tilt proof players cry "loser's queue" when they're getting destroyed in a game.
So what exactly is this "loser's queue" they speak of?
Well, the theory goes that League's matchmaking system is much more complex than Riot actually lets on, and it fixes matches to make you more likely to lose in certain games. But is this even possible? Why would a company do this?
