The new champion select system is the crappiest of them all [RANT]

Here's how my night started.

[warning: lots of swearing ahead due to being slightly (greatly) frustrated. Don't report me now.]

I come back from work, open League of Legends as usual, there's an update (yay!), I come to know that the new champion select system is in place. Awesome, I'm excited. Except.. it's actually really shitty. And here's why.

It's distracting. All those fancy animations and sounds and shiny shit you put it in is not nice. It takes forever to get into a game, and I don't know about you guys, but I usually get into a lobby then go grab something quickly. With this system, I can't do that. Since now the last 3 ban (wtf? why?) anyways, I'm picking my champion, still debating on what champion to play, I pick a champion before the timer runs out... But I get put back into queue.. I was like "wtf happened?" So I queue up again, and it tells me I have dodged? What do you mean, I totally selected a champion!! Anyways, I get back in after 6 minutes, and the same thing happens. And it's weird.. like, what's going on?

Then I ask people, and they tell me I need to click the lock in button... So now, now (thanks Riot!!) if you're on the verge on who to play, you have to have flash speed to be able to select the champ then QUICKLY lock in or you'll get dodged. Because for some reason, they decided to remove auto-lock in after the timer runs out. Honestly, whoever was in charge of designing this system should be moved to another department. Probably one where they have nothing to do with the game. Anyways. Long story short, I dropped from all the 6 points I had to -7 points.

Thanks Riot. Somehow you always manage to fuck up everything. Guess what? They probably won't even return my points back. Because fuck that, let's fuck up the matchmaking system then basically flip everybody off. There isn't even a grace period so people can get used to this system without being penalized? What??? What kind of operation are you guys running? Overhauling the system... then expecting people to get used to it in an instant. I said it before and I'll say it again,

why the fuck is the auto-lock in feature removed after the time runs out and a champ has been selected? I don't get it. Instead of kicking people out of the game... how about lock them in? I am slowly starting to hate league of legends. The way they do things now... I can't.

There was no need to do all this shit. It was working JUST FINE. If it's not broken... DON'T CHANGE/FIX IT! Please. That saying didn't just come out of someone's ass.

On a side note though.. If a riot staff member is reading this, I want my points back (like I actually do)

Left a poll below, tell me what YOU think.
