I don't think I am the only one that won't play normals if draft is removed

Blind pick is cancer, and with my connection I cannot call a role and lock in. And I am not ever letting Yasuo ever be played in my games, it's just not happening. All my friends are kind of worn out from this game as it is, this may just be the change to push me to only play aram occasionally, and I don't really like aram that much as it is.

I don't play rank, nor do I want to.

I'm the only one who thinks blindpick isn't that bad? I mean even when I play on my toaster PC I still get to play the role i want most of the time

I play Normal draft more then anything else in this game. High queue times are annoying sometimes but I would almost always chose higher queue time with option to select position i want to play before low queue time and to have to fight for the position i want or to get stuck with something i do not enjoy playing or even worse to get people trolling because they didn't get what they wanted. Normal draft needs to stay! Make it work RIot! Better remove blind and keep draft!

you play on NA so why are you complaining about it? you know that you will still have access to draft pick?

Normal Draft will be retired at the start of preseason for all regions except North America, Europe West, and Brazil. Our goal is to offer the fewest number of queues that give unique experiences (so we can keep queues healthy) while keeping disruption low, and in all regions except NA/EUW/BR, normal draft had very low participation. In an ideal world, we’d like to retire normal draft in all regions.

They are removing it from specific regions where the time till game is in the realm of 20 minutes or more. NA is not one of those regions

The removal of draft mode will guarantee me playing less League of Legends, I don't need to even think about it, I know this is true.

Leave then, I get tired of watching you people whine about everything Riot does.

Agreed... I play LOTS of blind pick, but I still think draft is better. I just kinda don't play it because people either lock in MY ROLE, or me or someone else costs us the entire game. Ya. I don't play much draft cu I'm afraid I'll make others lose.... Kinda sucks, cuz I was looking forward to playing lots of ranked this next season...

yeah, blind pick isn't an option

if not normal it means testing your roles in ranked when you are relatively safe to be demoted

remove them and more people will play ranked meaning less queue time wait.
