I've been trying to get into a game for almost 45 minutes now. Auto-fill needs to be made optional.

After seven dodged lobbies, I finally got into a game with a 4-man premade. They wanted Kai'sa, but the enemy team first picked her, so one of them left as soon as the game started to allow a remake, and switched accounts.

Three dodged lobbies later, I finally get into the next, and I'm auto-filled to support. Which I don't want to play in a normal. So I dodge, and now I'm waiting 5 more minutes until I can queue up again, 45 minutes after I sat down and decided 'I want to practice my Cassiopeia.'

This system has zero value. Forcing it in normals provides absolutely no benefit; anyone who doesn't want to play an auto-filled role (ergo would opt out of it if possible) will just dodge at the end of the lobby, wasting everyone's time.

I see your complaints, but if autofill was optional it would be pointless because literally no one would use it lmao

So instead, since everyone is forced to use it, what is it accomplishing?

It's accomplishing tolerable queue times. Naturally, there're probably less people queueing for supp than all other roles, and because of this some people may have to wait in queue for literally hours to wait until someone queues for supp to get into their game.
