Picking champions in the wrong role.

Too Fresh··2 votes·409 views

I understand most players would like to have fun playing league of legends as a majority. Otherwise competitive players of all elo's such as myself (Bronze 2 dont flame) might find this interesting. I've found as playing and legitimately trying to leave the torment of bronze , players tend to lose games when playing champions in lanes they shouldn't be in. This goes only for ranked , i'll leave draft for the feeders and people who want to main shaco top. Playing ranked and trying to climb is frustrating , especially at lower elo's. What im trying to propose an idea about is , limiting the champion select pool you have to being role specific. For instance , not playing ziggsZiggs adc or lee sinLeeSin support. On the simple fact that these champions are made for their specific lane superiority. I understand there are champions that have "categories" marksman/tank etc. But i know we've all seen a bard jungle main go 3/17/0 and found it rather distasteful. All in all in my opinion i would like to see a change to the champion select pool you have to be role specific, instead of Marksman/tank categories there could be Mid/top/jg/adc/support. Now this would only be in ranked , even limiting it to lower elos such as bronze-silver. I understand this may recieve alot of criticism by the Twitch jungle mains and whatever creativity you bring to a role based on you're champion selection. I personally would like to queue up for bot/mid and not have to worry about getting a support playing malzaharMalzahar or velkozVelkoz . Personally it just grinds my gears; hopefully some players can relate and make this a popular topic, otherwise i just felt the need to throw this out there to see the feedback it would get. I think this would grease the wheels of climbing. I would also like to introduce an automatic summoner 11 Smite summoner selection based opposite you're flashsummoner 4 or ghostsummoner 6 . Make it mandatorily locked for you and unchangeable , this would result in a jungler never forgetting smite , and dying to krugs after blue or what have you. I feel like this post might actually gain some backing by some players and would hope eventually riot would take this into consideration! Thanks for reading!

not just about adc's , all lanes in general :P just my opinion.

and op champs can go anywhere, as long as they're decently mobile or ranged

lee can go any lane because he's fast and shits on nearly everyone

gp can go any lane if he doesn't care about stacks because he's fast and shits on nearly everyone

etc

I just feel like the restriction would be more competitive with having to actually play ur role

you do know that naut support became a thing because people started using him as a support champion instead of a top lane champion right? Trundle support is a thing even though he is designed to be a top laner. Quinn was designed to be an ADC and she sees more success everywhere but in the ADC role. Just because a champion was designed to be in a specific role does no mean that they cannot be used in other roles. There are times that the other role is actually even better than the one they were designed for. Hell TF was an ADC for a while before he became a mid mage. Corki is a viable mid and ADC but he was designed as an ADC not a mid caster
