That's just ranked. It goes 5 minutes then 25 minutes after first one. For normal the progression is slightly slower.

thaats unfair this is why people want a report in champion select because we are at the mercy of trolls who take over the select and hold the game hostage and god forbid we dodge to escape an terrible match.

So having a get out of jail free card that doesn't cost you any MMR is a bad thing in terms of dealing with lobby trolls?

Back in seasons 1 and 2 it used to also cost you MMR to dodge... In other words, it cost you ranking to dodge a match. They changed this partially to assist players with dealing with precisely that type of scenario. Its not ideal... but its way better than what was in place the first 2 seasons. Use your dodges, they cost nothing but time.

Well for most people, Riot or Tencent figures that anyone who dodges a queue is obviously trolling and has no one in real life tying them down.
