Auto Fill is Ruining Ranked Games

Sulivahn·Jan 12, 2017·3 votes·630 views

Hello everyone

Auto fill is ruining ranked games. People get auto filled as support and all of a sudden they think they are challengers and can outplay the entire enemy team by picking Yasuo support or Elise support. becase they don't want to play traditional supports since they didn't get their main role and choose to "troll" instead.

Riot we like league of legends and we would like to keep on playing it to have fun. But auto fill has been nothing but headache for me personally and the people that get trolled by other players, because auto fill has put them in the situation to do so. Long queue times you say? I'd rather wait 5 minutes for a game than to waste 20 minutes and take a loss.

Please fix this.

Thank you for your time.

I think people are quick to forget, or maybe are just not aware how far this game has come. from having to fight for your role every single time to getting your top 2 preferred roles majority of the time. auto fill may not be ideal but riot is working on solutions. give it time, this game is always changing and evolving.

personally dont mind auto fill Im used to play different roles. and bad players are going to be bad, trolls are gonna troll.

I'm not underestimating what Riot has done. It's easy to see that they care deeply about the health of the game. However the auto fill feature is very new. Before that you could CHOOSE to be auto filled in for bonus rewards. That was great. You can even bump up the bonus so that people would play roles that are in shortage more. But as it stands the system chooses for you and it makes for unhealthy champ select environment.

I don't mind if I get auto fill for any role, but it is other people that ruin the experience just because they didn't get their main role.

Please remove auto fill and bump up the reward for **choosing **to be filled in.

What are you talking about? Auto-fill has always been a mandatory thing that was turned on when queue timers needed it to not grow to crazy lengths. The only reward that has ever been in the game for filling was introduced this season where you temporarily become immune to autofill after filling in a game.

What you said has nothing to do with the original problem. Please keep it about the OP. not only that but Auto fill has ALWAYS been here? pretty sure it was introduced in S6.
