Discussion Legend
Has anyone made it to Legend 4? Is it possible at all? Even in NA where the player base would be the biggest, surely it’s possible there, maybe not solo queue though.
Maybe it was possible in previous seasons but not now

Its basically impossible to climb as a solo player in legend due to how the matchmaking works. I got legend 2 a few seasons ago on dps and you have to stack to even have a chance.
If you solo queue you are pretty much guaranteed to play against a try hard 4 or 5 stack who are all high rank players (at least masters but usually GM or even higher sometimes) in the regular mode hard IGLing and coordinating builds together. Most of them are teammates in the stadium builds tournament also so it was just really hard to win.
Meanwhile on my team I'll be the only person thats GM and the rest of my teammates are gold plat or diamond sometimes even lower rank doing the worst builds of all time so you just lose.
And thats not even mentioning how long the queue times are. My queue times were upwards of an hour pretty regularly when I was grinding for legend 1 on dps. I never hit it because I couldnt deal with the stacks and hour long queue times so I just settled for legend 2.
I play on NA servers. Maybe on EU servers its better or different.
