I'm casual. I don't play ranked. I don't want to have to wait for other people to make decisions in order to get into a match of League. I don't want to deal with "I want [role] or I'll troll". At the very least, I want to read Cracked articles or browse Facebook, but I can't even do that because of the broken AFK detector. Why did you change this? Why? [zombie-brand-facepalm]
you're not alone 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.
I quite approve of our S6 Draft Overlords. I'd rather have Team Builder in Draft than Teem Builder and shit draft. Or rather...I'd rather have what we have now, than to have to deal with having Bot Lane Teemo all the goddamn time.
