POLL: Can we please have a few more seconds after last lock in before the match?

##My Story## Queuing up for the one game I had time for before work today, and my one trick Orianna gets counterpicked. Nautilus Last enemy locks in and I realize "hang on, that's a Nautilus support." No problem, I created a rune page specifically for countering Nautilus support last time I got wrecked by one. I go to switch to it and my phone starts ringing. "That could be work! Better answer that first in case I need to dodge!" It's a car warranty scam robocall. I hang up in disgust. I look back at the game and... too late. It's starting. Not only have I taken the wrong runes into my champion's counter, but I also took Heal when my carry also has Heal. That scammer wasted maybe five seconds of my time, and that was enough to prevent me from picking the correct runes and summoner spells.

#The point of the thread#

It's time to extend the time after last lock in before the game starts, Riot. There's more stuff than before that has to be managed after seeing what your opponents have picked, so we need time after they pick to manage it. Please, i'm all for reducing the lobby time as much as we can, but we really need just a few more seconds to select counterbuilds and spells. The time was reduced like, ten seconds a while back... can't we have just 5 seconds back?
