@Riot - When are you going to fix Support queues?

Rezandra··2 votes·547 views

Lets face it. It's currently unacceptable that if you put support as your secondary role, you will be support. End of story. Every time I queue with jungle as my primary and support as my secondary, I'm support. Every time. Every...... time.

It's gotten so bad that I've been putting mid as my secondary in the hopes of getting jungle, and just because Riot has a sense of humor and loves to see people suffer, my last two queues were instant, and they were both mid. I'm bad at mid. I don't want to mid. I want to jungle.

Why can't we just have a system that lets you queue as what you want, when you want. Then people could consistently practice a champ or role.

Oh yeah, it was called Team Builder...

How about a point system specifically for when you put support or fill as your secondary. Whenever you get that secondary role, you accumulate some points. And once you earn a certain amount, you can spend them to get a guaranteed primary role in your next queue. Kinda like using rolls in ARAM.

As a support main that places Support as primary and Fill as secondary, I don't see the problem.

Then obviously this issue does not apply to you. Why are you even posting here?

Well, basically to d*ck around.

But on a more serious note: why are you complaining about getting Support for placing that role (or Fill) as your secondary?

And why complain about getting mid and being bad at it if you place that as your secondary? Why complain in the first place about doing something and getting one of the expected results because fo your choice? It's like deciding between killing Person A or Person B, decided on killing Person B, sent to jail and then complaining because killing someone got you in trouble.

Complaining about your own choice is just silly.

Dude, what part do you not understand? There is next to zero supply for supports compared to every other role. THAT is why you get nothing but support if you have support or fill in either two selected roles.

By the way, Team Builder failed miserably because of exactly the problem with Dynamic Queue right now, and it isn't because of anything on Riot's behalf. Simply put, there are no supports. No supports means a game can't be started, and Team Builder was apparently a thousand times worse because of that.

What's your point? secondary should NEVER be more than 49.9% of your queues.

ADC is comparably low demand. When I've filled I've been given a lot of ADC and Support, a few jungle, mid once, no top yet.

Team Builder failed because people couldn't adapt to what was best for the team. You've got a Yasuo mid on your team, but you can't swap to a knock up champion. You have a Support that would do better with that ADC, but you can't change to them. Old Team Builder punished players who wanted to do what's best for the team (mostly Supports and Junglers in my opinion) and as a result people who liked to play those roles didn't play Team Builder. Players that wanted to fill didn't play Team Builder either.

Yes. I have had exactly that problem... it forced me to start playing Jungle/ADC or Jungle/Mid because I would basically never get jungle if I went Jungle/Support.
