What happened to the Omit option for choosing roles?

When the new client first got released for the PBE there was an option to omit a role just in case of auto fill. Why was that never implemented. It gets annoying when people get auto filled to a role they least desire and end up doing terribly because of that. I feel like riot did it to "shorten queue times" but im sure if we are playing ranked we would rather have a longer queue time and a quality game rather than a short queue time a players getting auto filled.

They "tried it" on small servers with very few people, and it "didn't help queue times".

What a great sample size to make a conclusion.

It is undoubtly because support would be the number one omittion, therefore defeating the purpose.

The necessity of auto fill happened.

Also probably everyone just put support.

I understand this in normal games but no one wants a low quality ranked game where things are supposed to be serious and you are supposed to play the best of your ability.

It's a sad day in league history when we even need autofill to be honest.
