The old Queue viewed from the new
(fake rant to show people why the new Queue is awesome from the perspective of someone who had it and is receiving the old one)
This queue system(old) riot is giving us is absolute BS. There is no reason to implement it! It creates so many problems that our current system(new) doesn't even have.
-
It looks horrid. the visuals are stupid with minimal sound effects and visuals. This is just such a plain downgrade from our current(new) queue
-
The removal of dynamic queue. The ability to queue up with multiple friends is a necessity, and without it we can't play with friends or try new strategies like 5 mid. The replacement, duo queue is utterly ridiculous and has no reason for replacing our current(new) system.
-
Taking away our ability to choose roles. The incoming(old) champion removes our ability to choose roles and makes our role determination based on the random chance of getting first pick or last. It also gives us less time for creating strategy and team comp when everyone has no idea what they are going to play beforehand.
-
Pick intent removal. By removing this feature Riot has made it easier for an unintentional ban of a champion someone wanted to play.
-
Ban distribution. By making the player with first pick have the bans, it creates a troll heavy system where they can ruin a team on their own with taking away roles and/or champions others want to play.
This new(old) champion select Riot is giving us pales in comparison to our old(new) one and should have never even made it past the drawing boards.
