I don't mind having to wait 5 or 10 minutes to get into a game, I just want to play my primary role

Whats the point of selecting a primary and secondary role when the matchmaking doesnt distinguish between the two? I just wanna be able to play jungle and I'm wiling to wait longer queues if it means tuning the system to give your primary role more weight.

I pick Jungle/Support and still get jungle 90% of the time.

So before it was a crapshoot to get any role, where you would end up sometimes as last pick, getting whatever role wasnt chosen, and now you're complaining because when you're guaranteed to get one of 2 roles, you don't get your number one choice as often as you would like? Sounds like whining to me.....

If they allowed players to wait for there one role than plat + would rarely see any games

For me it's more annoying how fill pretty much means support. I don't mind playing support the majority of the time, but right now it locks in support 90-95% of the time which is pretty boring.

This. I am a jungle main. I haven't spent the last 3 years learning how to lane, I've been in the jungle learning clear paths, objective control, and good gank times. I can barely play support because it doesn't require me to cs and the other half of laning.

This is what I hate most about LoL. People who are too lazy to learn the game. You will never understand or be decent at the game if you only know one role.

The only good thing about team builder is that it separated the worst players from those people that actually enjoy playing the game.

I loved 5th pick in the draft. It allowed me to either counter pick some awful enemy early picks I.e. first pick Kat or first pick Blitz. Last pick also allowed me to strengthen my own team when no one picked a tank or champ with hard cc.

I wish people would try harder instead of complaining to Riot or asking for things that actively make the player base worse off.

This system was made for support mains like me. Everyone gets their best roles because i queue as support. No one is tilted from getting support for the 10th time even though they are mid mains.

I love supporting but i get why people think its boring and cant stand doing it every game. I've gone weeks of playing only support and no other role, cant get enough.

This x10000.

I don't mind supporting every now and then, hell its my secondary. Buy being forced to support trash adc after trash adc while the guy who got mid feeds..

I'm a support main, so this struggle doesn't really apply to me, but I pick mid as my secondary because it's the most popular role-- so I'm bound to get my desired roll, right?

I made a post about this (or commented about it, I don't remember) and got downvoted for some reason.

If im not mistaken, mid is the most popular role, so if you chose mid as your secondary you might have better luck landing that jungle slot. You could also suggest trading the secondary role you end up with for another, as the player that gets jungle might be in a similar situation to yourself. It never hurts to ask!
