Ranked "Fill" Option Needs Removed

I'm not a fan of the fill option, I've seen many posts that comment saying you want to make the game times faster and the queue times lower, but it doesn't make it very competitive to have to "fill" positions randomly that people don't normally play. It causes most low elo players to just play something they're comfortable with that might not necessarily fit that role and it's costing a lot of people games. I don't know about everyone else (except I kind of do because there's a large portion of the population that feel this way) but I'd much rather have longer queue times and have someone in a position that they're more comfortable playing, than have faster games and lose because they were in a position they don't know how to play properly, takes the competitiveness away and really makes it so that you have to rely on luck that you get a team that got what they queue'd for.

Agreed i get learning how roles work etc. I understand how they are work does not mean i'll be good at playing them.That being said ranked is not the place to learn roles or be thrown into roles you can't play well.

Then don't play until you know how to play all roles at a decent level.

Trolls are out i swear say something constructive or move on. I can play support decent and keep my adc alive i didn't say i could not. That being said it's still not the point that the fact of the matter is competitive play(IE ranked) is meant for you to shine playing one of your best TWO roles they let you pick from. I know the seasons before did not have team builder i get it but why add it now just to go back to the same crap it was without it? Honestly my waits have not changed a bit the amount of dodges have seen to that. the quality of the games have went down hill more now then they where in the past.

I agree. Fuck this "auto fill" bullshit even more. The last four supports I've had as an ADC have ALL been auto fill supports that do shit all. I would rather have longer queues or just occasionally support myself (which I do anyway) than get auto fill supports.

And honestly, I really dislike players who WILL NOT support. Means they don't care about winning.

I actually like filling from time to time. But it surely needs a freaking 1 role ban. I can't stand playing ADC for sure, but at other roles i'm not 100% losing guy for my team.
