What the hell is the point of removal of Normal Draft?

Hi, as many of you know, Normal Draft was removed from many servers including my EUNE. What was the reason? Riot said there is not too many players for both draft and blind pick.

And my question is: Why the hell do we have two identical Ranked Queues?! I - and I bet many would agree - would MUCH MORE rather have only one ranked and blind + draft normal! To be honest, I even use Flex Q as a Normal Draft just because!

They removed the wrong Queue. If anything, they should've removed blind pick. Why blind pick exists makes no sense. The lobby experience sucks, there's no bans and you have the potential for mirror picks. Not to mention you go in not knowing what position you'll be playing. Kill blind pick and bring pack normal draft.

why does ranked matter when you're talking about normals?

what the hell does one have to do with the other?...

on the actual topic of normals though, i agree that there's no reason whatsoever why there can't be draft and blind... or if anything, GET THE FUCK RID OF BLIND PICK.

Rito said if there are both, queue times are longer, obviously. But that's the problem of having two identical ranked systems.

  1. The title of this thread, YOUR thread, is "What the hell is the point of removal of Normal Draft?" What the hell does ranked have to do with that?

  2. What in gods fucking name does ranked have to do with normal draft?

  3. The ranked systems are NOT IDENTICAL. It would however, be a lot better if they went back to solo/duo only and then had team 5s, like it used to be.

But again WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK DOES NORMAL DRAFT HAVE TO DO WITH THAT?

lol

Ok, I get you're little bit slower so I try to explain again...

Draft + Blind pick ---> Rito said NO NO, way too few people, they wait ---> We make only one ---> Noone waits Solo + Flex ---> For a solo player LITERALLY identical ---> Some play Solo, some play Flex ---> The probem not solved ---> Flex used instead of Normal Draft ---> Toxicity

What is the point od removing Normal draft for reducing queue timers, if there is another queue that behaves the same way, but ks marked as ranked and leads to some people taking it seriously and thus increasing toxicity?

If you don't get it right now, not my problem, wasting my time talking to retards won't help anything so I give up.

Talking about toxicity when you are toxic yourself. I agree with your points, but you can tell him that politely.

No I couldn't. He's not polite and he mentally exhausted me, so no, I stand for what I said.

Identical? LOL. Ranked solo/duo is well solo/duo. Ranked Flex you can queue as Solo/Duo/Trio or 5. There's a difference there.
