Season 1 definitely had an impact on it. I noticed a HUGE change.
Before Season 1, I found myself at a decent Elo in normal games. People warded, not many trash talkers, and coordination was extraordinary between me and 4 strangers. Teams would never be 5 carries/supports/tanks, it would always be balanced.
When Season 1 hit, all the good players moved over to ranked. Now, I find myself in normal queue with idiots who have absolutely no clue what they're talking about, no clue how to play, and trash talk like it's their job. My W/L has gone up a tiny bit, but it doesn't feel like my Elo even changes.
If I go in a ranked game, I find myself being stuck with people who still rush Mejai's as their first item 21 minutes into the game after going 0-9-2 from being in mid lane.
Not having Elo carry over to rank just punishes a lot of decent players. Many of the players I used to see in normal queue are now probably stuck in Elo Hell, trying to dig their way out.
