The enjoyment of LoL , lost before game starts!

I THINK Playing League, and dealing with que times is the biggest turnoff ATM, Game has just been getting "too complicated" to get started playing!

Im not talking about toxic players, people not knowing their roles, champs or all the problems with DC and internet lags !

no, let me show you some MATH, that hits EVERYBODY in EVERY game, some a little less, but most ppl actually had et even "worse" than my observations:

So .. you want to have a game of fun, logs in to LoL and want to play for ½-1 hour and try to gain a few LP. I know average games takes 40 min ( Riots own information), so you should be set.

this is based on 10 random consecutive games in LOW SILVER (where 70-80% of gamers are)

You chose your roles and hit SEARCH.. ok Game says **Estimated 2:45 **.. fair enough (with a pool of 80% of players in my ELO, matching should be in seconds??, especially since autofill is permalocked!) Ok on an average the Que repeat / que dodge happens 1-2x each search for me in 10 games, so ACTUAL MATCHING TAKES 4:25 min

ok , champ select. .. cant take that long, ppl knw their role and counter to ban ? AN AVERAGE OF 3:20 min for champ select, it might take longer (15 sec preselect + 30x10 champ select+ skin select etc) but this is my actual average based on 10 games

FINNALLY game loads.. ye.. in 2017 the GAME HAS TO LOAD!, just like waiting for the Commodore 64 tape drive, the games has not started, On an average i got 2.15 min load time

So. from when i started "to play" (by pressing "find Match") 'till i actually have a game running i waited AN AVERAGE of 10 MINUTES! in a game estimated to last 30-40 min!.

IM NOT taking into account the many games that had people dodging in champ select, GAME REMAKES etc, but in 10 games i had 1-2 dodging and 1 remake

lets just for the fun of it take 1 dodge (in champ select) and 1 REMAKE after game has started

1 Dodge half way into champ select would cost you an extra 7.20 minutes 1 remake = 10 min (as described above) +** 3 min**(before you can remake) + 1 min for game report screen etc

adding that to any of 2:10 games makes the "play time" and Play enjoyment completely LOST!

PS..

i have played since season 3, are current in silver ELO and plays for FUN and Leasure, and think i represent 50-70% of all LoL gamers
