(IDEA) Improvement to Solo Queue (Normals)
Normal Dynamic Queue take forever. At times it count take you 8+ minutes to start the match (with a high chance of someone NOT LOCKING IN and restarting the tedious process).
I Miss the Old Draft Normal Queue system. Jumping into the game screen, 2 leaders pick 6 bans, and everyone jumps into the game in minutes. The current Normal 5v5 system lacks Bans, however, there is a way to improve the speed at which we jump into the rounds (VS the current Normal Dynamic Queue). Currently, at least for me, in Normal 5v5 there is not much fun to have. If your team wants to practice ANYTHING BUT OVERPOWERED champions it would mean pain and headache. Without the Bans, the game creates an unrealistic environment if they are to have a competitive Ranked Experience.
My suggestion for the NEW 5v5 NORMAL DRAFT:
- You and your teammates jump into Champion Select
- Two Leaders Ban - AT THE SAME TIME - Because realistically, people tend to ban what is extremely unplayable against, rather than counter bans. Let's be real, we are not facing a Pro Team where we are aware of their strongest champions.
- Bans take 60 seconds TOTAL (without Time Reset after each ban. You either ban all 6 within 60 seconds, or have some bans left out)
- Post-Ban Stage - every individual picks their champion (AT THE SAME TIME w/ 60 second timer) and** LOCKS IN** (the mandatory LOCK IN will act as an AFK check)
- Once every person LOCKS IN the 10 second countdown begins towards the match
This Process should fly by quickly under 2m30s. Faster games = More Practice = More FUN!
Thoughts?
