Can a box be added to searching for games to tick if you prefer picking early [position 1-2] than later [position 3-5] ?
It would NOT be used for matchmaking, so queue time would be identical
It would only be used to order the players in the player list so that players who ticked the box get placed higher in the list and players that did not tick it get placed lower
Among the people who did tick or did not tick the ordering is random
I think we should just be able to swap positions. It's such a hassle when you're trying to pick for your teammates and they're like "but uhh... I don't have this champ, do you have that champ?" You just waste so much time talking about your champ pool rather than strategies for the game.
Why tho?
Randomness is balanced for this specific instance
the thing is it would affect queue times, if most people rather be 1st or 2nd pick then guess what? it'll become the same issue that teambuilder had when not enough people queued for support. It'll raise queue times for no reason whatsoever
It would be kind of nice to have, but since they are probably adding 5 bans per team next season, it won't be as useful then.
(To me, being able to ban is much more valuable than being a higher pick, since my picks are rarely contested.)
