What's with all of the Auto-Locking ?!
Auto locking should be a ban-able offense. I am tired of toxic, stubborn players poorly balancing teams, or not respecting people who fairly calla role first.
I understand that they made teambuilder to help those who want to play a specific champ, but this leaves those wanting to play popular roles such as top or mid waiting several minutes at a time. TB could even offer bonus IP to those who play as the low supply roles. This increased incentive would help balance the market. These roles, would get 4/3 the amount of IP if they win the game. This gives them a bigger incentive to play as best as they can, while helping to make a role seem more attractive. Personally, I find that it takes too long to set up teambuilder because we're waiting on a role that nobody really wants because it is thankless or just generally unattractive.
Am I missing something, or should these stubborn players at least receive some sort of warning? I am in a queue with someone who bullies roles about every 3 games I play. I know this might be trivial, because people could manage. I would just appreciate a discussion.
========================
Player 1: top Player 1: top Player 2: top [auto locks riven] Player 1: I called it fairly Player 2: too bad
=========================
Player 1: top Player 1: top Player 2: top Player 1: I called it fairly Player 2: I know, but I'm really trying to learn her. I could jungle instead, but I don't know her as well. Player 1: I haven't really played other roles too much. Player 3: P1 got top, by the way Player 2: Ok, fine, I'll try to jungle instead
in this case people come to a decision together and fairly...
==========================
Because I'm a civil, level headed human being, I end up balancing the team to try to help us win, not really doing the role that I'd like.
Thoughts/comments? Does my proposed system for TB sound ok? Has anyone else had bad experiences? Do you Auto lock? Why?
