Queue Dodge After Selecting Character

I keep running into a bug during Nexus Blitz where I select my character and it shows as I have selected (but not locked in) and then when the timer runs out the game cancels and I get the 6 minute dodge timer. I had selected a character and banned but still run into this. Repro Steps:

  1. Start a game and select intended character
  2. Ban a character
  3. On character select screen wait for time to expire At this point the game shows as though you have selected a character but unless you lock in, you will be kicked and forced to wait for the queue dodge timer. The UX is inconsistent in that it shows you have selected a character but the game does not register that you have. A fix would be to clear the intended character selection after the ban phase, or simply consider the first stage (step 1) a character selection.

This is intentional.

Step 1 is meant for strategizing. You are indicating who you INTEND to pick, but you are by no means committed to that. Step 2 is banning. Then in step 3 you have to select your champion and lock it in. They changed it some time ago that if you fail to lock in your champ, it considers it dodging.

I don't entirely agree with it, but it is absolutely not a bug.
