How to fix autofill for 2017
Hey guys.
Personally I have no problem with autofill I feel like it's a similar way to draft as we had in season 5 and earlier just the client debates positions for you instead of us having to do it in draft.
The way to fix it is to get more support players! It's rather easy although not intuitive on how riot does this. Most people will say "Make supports great again!" Or something blaming itemization, warding, ect. That doesn't need to be fixed. The change that needs to be made is not actually in the game. It's in the LCS broadcast.
Currently people don't play support since they can't carry, it's not rewarding, you are overlooked. In every LCS broadcast, or league commentary they start talking about support players making plays, winning games, being mvp. Doing replays of supports initiating teamfights instead of mid players cleaning up after the support does the work.
BAM. Peoples opinions about support will begin to change and so the culture around the game about supports will change and people will naturally start gravitating towards it since it will be looked on in a more positive light than it is now.
