Autofill leads to horrible match quality

rtbf30982911··3 votes·232 views

Just started my ranked games for the day.

First game: Had to dodge due to our autofill support picking Kled in an attempt to get someone to dodge.

Second game: Our autofill support picks Blitz with 0 knowledge of the champ. Game extended to 36 minutes, 30 minutes into the game the Blitz has build Hextech Protobelt and no sighstone. Enemy (non autofill) Janna has Ardent Censer, Redemption, and sighstone. Meaning our team have zero utility from our support while their team has great utility.

The NUMBER ONE reason for match quality being worse than ever is autofill. I'd rather wait 5 minutes extra to get a proper support player than to play with autofill supports that have no clue how to play and don't even try to build any kind of supporting items. I'm pretty sure the fact that so many games are lopsided stomps is due to autofill.

Please revise this or add report option specifically for people who don't even try to play the role properly.

This is so true.

Autofill was the step backward after role selection was improved. Its whatever if its fill in norms, but in rank it creates bad experiences

Suggestion: Play support yourself to reduce the chance of having an autofill on your team, as well as to reduce your chance of getting autofilled as well.
