Autofill, Fill me in guys.

I have some questions on autofill functionality, does anybody know how many games you get protected after playing support or fill? I know its at least 2 but I don't have an exact number. Also when you get forced to auto fill do you get the role protection enabled after or does that only happen when you intentionally pick support or fill? Is the number of protected games set in stone or change due circumstances like users online, what role you took, if you got forced to fill, etc? Reason I'm asking is it seems logical to intentionally play a game as support when your LP is 70 ish if would net you 3 or more games of protection, should give you a solid buffer of main roles until promos where you get your main roles at a lower risk of being forced into something you cant play.

I'm actually unsure on the number of autofill protected games you get, but for it being enabled yes it does happen even if you are autofilled.

Also, you cannot be autofilled in your promos, so don't worry about setting up protection for that!

It should give you a solid buffer of main roles until promos where you get your main role

Anyhow if its 3 or more games them your looking at being able to get in 2-8 games of fill protection for the last legs of a promotion which might be a valuable thing for ladder players who have roles they cant play. That being said I don't know and couldent find the information online so takeing it to the boards for help.
