Fellow summoners! This POST is for those who want team builder game mode BACK!!!!. Riot, we are not happy with being forced to use the new champion select, when all we want is to play ONE roll and ONE Champion. All this did was make building a game way too long because of dodgers. Now, don't get me wrong because the new champion select looks BOSS, But It just does not replace team builder.

So Summoners! If you want Team builder back then please post here and let riot know!

Just another point: I think that a lot of gamers just might drop their favorite game because of the long wait time just to get into game. Riot your player base just might drop a shit load.

HEY RIOT REMEMBER THIS VIDEO...........https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kOMLGVvzYuY

BTW: the new champion select is great, I just think that dodgers could be avoided in it if team builder was still an option.

[slayer-pantheon-thumbs] You go breh, we NEED teambuilder back, it gave us the option of playing certain roles and filling others. not this we are forced to play draft crap. honestly if everyone wanted to play draft they wouldn't have blind, but blind is just a free for all on lanes and positions Upvoted to get riots attention

Im a casual player and Teambuilder was what i liked best about this game. You took away my faveorite game mode for another option that is not even close. I tried to be optimistic, but the first two times i used it I did'nt get the role I wanted. Would have been 100% success rate in Teambuilder. Sucks to be a casual player I guess :(

This new queue system is by far the most rage inducing thing I have ever tried. The worst part is after 40 min of waiting then finally saying fuck it and going to normal non draft mode, i find out that everyone else on my team did the exact same thing and then we all were fighting over our positions. The funny thing is usually in that scenario we would all rage and the game would be horrible; but everyone in that game came to the consensus that we were not mad at each-other actually. We were mad at Riot. In the beginning of the game I would have expected all of us to report each-other. In the end we all wish we could have reported riot for the terrible experience.

As someone who has played both blind pick and team build i loved team builder. i pretty much played only blind till i got to around level 25. pretty much all my time playing blind was with toxic people and for the most part the toxic players would make me feel terrible (as someone who suffers depression this really made my time playing any game in blind pick miserable) once i found out about team builder i really started to have fun. i got to play pretty much the very few characters i am decent/good with which is all support characters. i got along with pretty much all my teammates and even had enjoyable conversations while playing. most of the time if i was on the losing side of a the match i was still able to have a good time with my team. wining wasn't the main focus. it was having fun.

blind and draft forces me to play with the people who made league of legends a terrible experience for me. also being more of a casual playing myself team builder was just a much more enjoyable experience for me. i do not have all the time to learn to play handfuls of characters, and with team builder it allowed me to play exactly what i wanted. if i am just playing 1-2 games a day it was nice to play exactly what i wanted. the queue time was never an issue with me, and if my teammates and i had a long wait time we normally just talked or i would just use the wait time to get other things done.

it doesn't bother me if riot wants to test out the new character selection with blind and draft pick. do what ever you want, go crazy with it haha. but i don't see why riot had to get rid of team builder altogether. team builder was never hurting anyone to my knowledge but to my knowledge i think the player base for team builder was quite strong. there isn't any reason the new character selection and team builder cant co-exists i think, but like i said before, i think its unreasonable to get ride of team builder altogether.

It's too bad riot is too proud to admit when they make game breaking mistakes

RyoHakuron1/16/2016, 6:04:16 AM10 votes

Legit, I'm not playing Summoner's Rift unless I have a five man team of friends... and even then, not gonna use the new champ select because banning and all that junk takes forever and you get hardly any time at all to decide what champ to play.

Guess I'll stick to ARAMs and customs from now on...

Bring Team builder Back Riot! I did not spend hundreds of dollars on skins and wards and IP buffs just for you to have "your way" There was nothing wrong with the Team builder mode! who ever told you there is/was are total fools!

Bring back old draft and team builder, this new stuff is crap!

JakubixX1/27/2016, 8:59:54 PM6 votes

Yes, give us Team builder back. The new one is good if you wanna make champ select more strategical and balanced. Will be fine for ranked games. But it is really slow to go through all the parts of this new select... First getting team - even with sup/bot i still wait 1-2 minutes for game (in Teambuilder it was ussually 5-30 seconds cause everybody needed sup and adc) and then 30 secs for showing preferences, then ban, then choose one by one... And all these animations... It is really annoying... In team builder i just chose champion and position i wanted and got in game, which started rather fast...And it was simplier... I usually dont play ranked but only fast games for relax with TB (or i haved played) so i am dissapointed a lot now :/ I hope riot will bring teambuilder back...

Flipndip1/26/2016, 11:06:02 AM6 votes

We really need TB back. I see many reports in my future because i use blind pick as my team builder. Im not trying to troll just spending my time the way i want.

ScuffedJayz2/19/2016, 6:59:24 PM4 votes

Yeah i want tb back, not only because of dodgers. Here is a story. Okay i spent 1 week getting enough ip to buy elise so when i finaly got her i took jg as primary role cause i didnt want any other lanes to start with first time elise. SO I FCKING FIND A MATCH OH LOOK TOP! And not only that THEY BANNED ELISE. Well Dodged that sht. OH LOOK TOP AGAIN. Like this is bullshiit. I want to play the champion i want to play in the role i want. ill rather wait 10 mins to find a match on the champ i want than waiting 20 mins to get the pick orders and banning done and the dodgers.

I know i typed alot of sht wrong, but u understand what i mean :) Elise

Yes, I'm with everyone who wants Team Builder back.

KanyeWezreal1/17/2016, 2:49:45 PM3 votes

I agree with KillZmurf on almost every point. The dodgers and trolls are terrible, the times are awful, and the other game modes are feeling the strain. I want one champ, one role, and that's it. I would play draft if I wanted draft, but I want to get into a match as quickly as possible. Bring Team Builder back. Rito, ask us (don't tell us) how we want to play.

Thilough1/27/2016, 5:17:26 PM3 votes

Yes, bring team builder back. I enjoy playing solo queue off meta, and team builder was perfect for that, as everyone agreed to what was coming. Now if I want to keep playing like I enjoy, most of the time I expercience high toxicity during the draft phase. It's ruining the game every game.

HateDumbNames1/25/2016, 9:44:13 PM2 votes

So i actually stopped playing blind pick when teambuilder was released and therefore forgot how different blind/draft pick queue is from the teambuilder one. I experienced less arguments and found more people wanting to improve specific aspects of their play-style or simply wanting to try new things. It didn't come as a shock to anyone when someone tried an unconventional build or champion in an certain role. Everything was mapped out in a neat way before the queuing even started. My experience now in blind/draft pick is that when people don't get the role or champ they want, it leads to them either leaving queue or starting an argument. This often leads to them trolling instead of working with the team. I often thought teambuilder's biggest problem was the time it took to set up a team and start a game. However i recently found out that blind/draft pick actually can take much longer time than teambuilder. I consistently get people leaving champ-select and restarting the entire process, simply because they didn't get the role or champ they wanted. I also found huge differences in the community of the different queues. This is just my personal experience and I am not sure how valid it is. I found that teambuilder had a much better community, than the one blind/draft pick has. I didn't get nearly as much raging and trolling when I was playing in the teambuilder queue as i do now. I've been playing lol along time and I used to play the game alot. Recently however I am playing the game less and less because most of my experiences with blind/draft pick are frustrating and bad ones. So Riot PLEASE BRING BACK TEAMBUILDER

Ever since Team Builder has gone LOL has been a terrible experience for me a casual player. It has been a toxic cesspool and I have always been an honorable member of the community have had multiple ribbons across multiple seasons. Either this will result in two things, I stop playing or I became as toxic and poisonous as this community is known for. Riot take your pick.

LaZboy Marksman2/1/2016, 9:11:53 PM2 votes

I agree completely team builder eliminated every problem I had with the game and allowed me to enjoy it. Now I never get the role or champ I wanted because someone else is choosing them in lanes they don't even belong in. The marksmen class to be specific.

I DONT WANT TEAMBUILD BACK,THIS NEW MACHMAKING IS AWESOME PLS RIOT DONT TAKE IT FROM ME !

Lord Xantosh3/25/2016, 9:38:48 PM2 votes

yeah their new draft sucks, had 3 games yesterday, i choose jungle/top, get in, and the support and mid are crying about how they wanted to jungle and it is their 1st choice, so they proceeded to pick champs that could jungle and also choose smite and locked out my 2 champs Vi/Rammus, and similar happened for the 2 other games, honestly team builder was perfect, granted the wait for support champs could take a while, but people joined into croup content with the champ/role they wanted to play. ohh and don't get me started with blind pick!

and also the otherday 30mins in draft mode waiting for a queue pop, ummmmm it said average wait time 2 mins! yeah Rito, good one on the better draft mode XD i'm at item 3091 with their "improvements" it's time to ARAM till they bring back team builder
