    But the reason they praise it is because "it's against trolling". That was my point.
    People who play unconventional champs get flamed to shit already the moment they pick their champ and confirm their lane anyway.
    Yes, but now they can at least wait 25 min extra in queue because people don't want to play with them. Isn't. It. Great? ☜(⌒▽⌒)*

    I just hate these kind of systems in general, it hurts a game more than it helps.

    Honestly, if we start making so that every new feature is "bad" because of possibility of trolling and such then no new feature ever should be added because people will always find a way to be dicks.

    I think the new queue is interesting, it's in itself, which means it won't replace blind or draft so if you don't want to play it you aren't exactly forced to. If it will have the issues you are pointing out then they will never make it the way to go for ranked like Draft is now. And even if it was popular and well-received I doubt they would change ranked anyway...

    What really worries me about this being implemented is that it means they've completely given up on finding some way to "fix" champ select

    The toxicity they've been trying to fix with the player behaviour team for ages? :P

    Been playing AD thresh today. Why isn't he played as AD more? Not necessarily ADC, but like AD top lane or something. I can chunk an ADC down to less than half in one swing.

    You mean Riot thinks they can fix player behavior? It's a competitive game, make it so everyone wins or give them "Good Effort" regardless of who wins or loses at the end of a game. Your team wins the game then so does the enemy team.

    That solution above is satirical, making a point.

    Every time you say the word "noob" in a game or any variant of it, you get banned for an hour per time you use it effective immediately after the game. We here at Riot want players to be more passive aggressive and actually use their minds when it comes to insulting their own teammates. Most of our playerbase is borderline retarded so passive aggression doesn't exactly follow through with them and they will probably take a lot of what is said as a compliment.

    You can't fix people, but you can manipulate them with punishments and incentives. Which is (albeit less forwardly) what they've been trying to do all along. Also, you two didn't even know about the player behaviour team? :P

    Had 1 against us yesterday. Completely destroyed Lee toplane (even though I got Lee first Blood AND second kill in like 2 minutes time). He did more then 1/3rd of my health (playing Shaco) in 1 autoattack.

    I used to play Thresh toplane when he came out, was hilariously fun actually. Though since no one and their mother plays him toplane I kinda gave up I guess.

    I've seen him top lane and he's good, he seems more like a mid pick or something with lack of escapes but seriously thresh is quite good in a solo lane. I'd bet my life on it that if a pro player played him in a solo lane he would be played there in solo queue.

    And now raids are a whole lot bigger because they can justify spending ridiculous money on them because everyone can see them.

    On Topic: Team Builder for Ranked would be pretty good as it's there where teamwork is critical as you have your rating on the line.

    A good incentive to play other roles, a criticism from someone else said you shouldn't be able to just spam your favourite lane and champion.

    That's four easy reports, and you can do that in ranked now, I don't see the difference.

    Clearly you'd just play whatever had the shortest queue (Support/Jungle).

    It's better not get in a game with a champion that the rest of the team doesn't want, than you call your lane, pick your champion and then force someone to dodge.

    You can only provide a good environment, one that attempts to minimise the amount of trolling.

    No... it just means you have to wait a little longer for your team to fill.

    what i mean by forcing to meta is that if you would like to play something not normal
    lets say wukong mid or something, then you will instantly get raged on and reported for not playing true mid

    also forced to have top / jungle / mid / 2 bot since anything else will take years to get into
