Riot, seriously, can we please increase dodge timers for random matches?

We all have those instances where we finally got Sona/Lux/Xerath in ARAM, and...someone dodges.

And we all know why people dodge in ARAM. Not because they got matched with a troll, but because they got a champion they didn't want, and they didn't want to use a reroll, or didn't have one.

I'm not talking about blinds, drafts, or RGMs (except those that are also random, such as ARURF). Just for ARAM and any other similar queue.

Please, Riot.

Shouldn't they just fix their matchmaking and champion balancing, also for Aram?

You can do all the matchmaking and balance fixes you want. You can make the game 100% perfectly balanced in every single tier, in every single mode, from the tutorial to URF to 1fA to LCS.

It won't stop people from dodging in ARAM. Because they'll just get a champion they don't want, and then, being out of rerolls, just dodge. Increasing dodge penalties for random matches is the only way to stop that from happening.

They don't want weak champions :) I mean, it's unlikely that someone dodges because he didn't get, idk, "Kled" (to say a fun champ but not really used in Aram).
