New Champion Select

Doctor Ricecake·May 6, 2016·1 votes·439 views

I don't know other people also have this problem or not, but for me, I can never play adc in this "excellent" brand new champion select system. I chose adc as primary and support for secondary, your "excellent" system will 100% give me support! With no doubt! Riot, is this your way you serve your custom? By screwing our playing experience? Why can't you just give us the role we want!!!!! Are you guys thinking by ruining our experience can make us play longer so we can finally play the role we want if we are lucky, then with more time we play, you have a bigger chance to sell some stuff to us? You are wrong! I'm going back to Blizzard. Good bye, "brilliant" riot designer!

Do you understand how the new system is working? It looks for groups of people that aren't playing your roles to match you with as quickly as possible. The thing is, the % number of people that do not like (or queue for) support is far greater than the number that do.

By putting support down as an option (or even fill since that says you don't really mind what you get) you are drastically increasing your chances of getting a match quickly, but also drastically increasing the chance you will play support. It would be nice if the algorithm looked at the number of times in the last X number of games you got your primary vs your secondary, and allowed for longer queue times to get you your primary in these cases.

But for now, if you want adc, learn top, mid, or jungle and put that as your secondary. Bottom line, putting support in your options usually means you will get suppose simply because, again, there is a fewer number of support players in the game; each one is valuable.

Pretty sure you are trolling at this point.

Don't turn it around. Don't put support or fill as either of your selected roles. If support is selected, you are GOING to get it. And if you pick fill, that is almost the same as picking support.

Don't lock in support as secondary lock in mid and you will always get adc

Wow, that's a very good idea,is this some sort of Bug?

No, it's just that Mid's the most popular role right now, so if you have Mid selected, you're getting your other role by default.

This is a large problem that is hard to fix. Especially while rolling out major updates. If you don't want to get support, then pick a different secondary, on days you want to support, then put support.
