"its a role that no one likes and should be looked at being changed because no one likes to play it"

Wrong. I love to play support, and so do many people who play the game without going on and on about their KDA and other metrics. When I play the game, I play to win, not go 27/0/0. If my play saves the team from getting absolutely fucked up by an MF ult because of my Braum shield and ult, then I played good. I don't need to CS or constantly all-in to have fun, I protect my ADC while they CS. I ward. ward ward ward. because it wins games and plebs dont understand this.

I laugh about how people get mad at being autofilled, yet its still better than being last pick in the old system. That was the "autofill" or they just trolled and hoped someone dodged. Riot just made the positions visible to make it easier on people.

And support being a bad role?? Right now is the best its ever been. Could you imagine the outrage if current game queue and autofill existed in season 1/2??? Doing nothing but rushing Heart of Gold. Philosophers Stone and boots, but after that the only thing you ever bought were wards. You were a ward bot. You finished a 30 minute game having made 4000 gold. There were no support masteries, no support items, and ambient gold was lower.

So get off your high horse about how shitty autofill is that you don't like to play support because you NEED to be the carry. If autofill disappears, the complaints wont because queue times will skyrocket as games bottleneck because of the lack of supports.

I don't like having to focus so much on those little automotons to get $$$$ dawg. Support Main 4 lyfe... until I want to climb anyway or master brand or zyra.

Remove autofill and reduce it to only one queue again, and I don't see any reason why queue times would be much different from how they were in s6. Even if they just changed autofill to only being active with long queue times it would make more sense. Having it permanently on does more harm than good.

Yes, there were worse systems than autofill in the past. That doesn't mean you have to stick with autofill. S6, aside from the complaints about dynamic queue, was pretty much perfect.

People still fail to understand the concept of bottlenecking.

It wasn't much of a problem in season 6, so I don't see why it would suddenly be a problem now. The only reason it would be, is there are two queue types, making there less players in each, theoretically increasing the time in queue for both.

Support has always been a less played role, but for a vast majority of players, queues were never very long even with the smaller number of support players.

Ratio is the problem, not numbers. Unless Flex is drawing off a disproportionate amount of supports(Which it could be, but only Rito has the data), it wouldn't fix the problem.

Doesn't matter how many you have as long as the ratio is still shit.

My problem isn't that I want to be the carry. It's that I hate everyone one so I go toplane leave me to my island
