Just shared your (roughly 1100) replies with various teams, again with most going to Anticheat or our specialized inting review pod. Apologies for not being able to reply to each one individually. Please know that they're getting looked at, actioned (where appropriate), and - for the inting flags - feeding into a larger modeling process that will make our inting detections better over time.
Thank you all for caring enough to share your feedback, for replying here and making it easier for me to organize and channel that feedback to the team, and for giving us a constant perspective on how we're doing. Now as ever, please flag any issues you have below and I'll make sure they get to the right folks.

Just shared your (roughly 1200) replies with various teams, with most of them going to Anticheat or to our specialized inting review pod. It's a delight to get to work for a community of players who care this deeply about us getting things right. All of us are out of office for the next week, but I'll be tuning into various streams tonight and this weekend to watch folks play Ranked Fives. If you have something you want the team to see, now as ever, the replies to this tweet is the best place to put it.

Hello! Since you've quote-replied to a dozen of my tweets with this, I'll just quote this instead of replying to any single one of them. Here's what you did at 1x speed. For context, three of your four teammates reported you in this game.
The reason this was a 30 day ban is because this isn't your first time doing this kind of thing. Going back through the history: you did this exact thing on May 20th in game 5564350978, you hit the 0/6 into sell your entire inventory Yasuo combo on April 28th in game 5548923059, you did this on March 12 in game 5510891251, again on March 2nd in game 5504125689, and again on February 19th in game 5495208283.
If anything, we have been too willing to give you opportunities to reform. Feel free to quit. Your penalty is well placed and will not be lifted.

@drewlevin So what did I do that warranted a 30 day ban out of no where?

@drewlevin Hello Drew, thank you for your consistent prescence and dialogue with the community.
I feel that Ranked has evolved into an optimisation problem. It is now time to treat it as an incentive design problem instead.

Reflecting on a number of matchmaking frustrations that people have shared with me over the last few months, I’ve heard a few common frustrations. I’d appreciate it if folks who have felt the pain in this space let me know if this captures their major concerns:
1. Some people believe that offering personal performance-based loss mitigation is mostly doomed, because it creates selfish incentives that pulls a player away from exclusively focusing on helping their team maximize win expectancy.
2. Some people are frustrated with duo queue in Master not having returned. Concerns about duo queue competitive integrity largely sit in two spaces: (a) boosting people from outside/low master into GM+, and (b) the difficulty of balancing games with GM+/GM+ duos, as different duos will contribute different win expectancies in ways that feel like you’re either smashing lobbies or being forced to 2v8.
3. Master+ players feel that there is room to increase queue times if it means narrowing the within-team skill range.
4. Some players do not understand that some accounts in climbing states (e.g. high Diamond MMR, Emerald rank) are being appropriately placed in their respective lobbies on the basis of skill evaluation. This contributes to - but is not the sole or primary driver of - frustration with (3).
How does that read for y’all as “here’s what’s frustrating about matchmaking right now”?
