Length of Pick/Ban Phase/Champ Select and not being able to start games
Hey there guys,
Just thought I would address an issue I am sure many of us are experiencing. With the new champ select, it seems that I cannot start a game to save my life. I will shuffle back and forth between Pick and Ban Phase, then get kicked back to queue because someone either dodged or forgot to lock their pick in, then back into the pick and ban phase and eventually make it to champ select, where I only meet my fate once again to be put back in queue. Maybe this is a temporary issue due to people not being used to having to lock in their picks, but I am unable to start games as promptly as I have before this. Could a harsher punishment for queue dodging be implemented? Possibly loss of more lp when dodging or maybe forcing the player to play a normal game before returning to ranked? I hope this problem can be taken care of in the near future, because I would rather not wait 20-30 minutes just to start up a game. If you guys have an suggestions on this topic let me know here!
