riot, please change the fact that you have to lock in your pick. Honestly, it doesn't make sense.

Change the fact that you have to lock in your pick. Honestly, it's a ridiculous rule that doesn't make any sense. I don't want to be forced to lock in a pick. Let me run down the clock. Let me consider my champion choices. Let me weigh a champion versus another, and then let the clock run down and have it automatically lock for me at zero, NOT DODGE. This has happened to me twice today - the first time I was doing my masteries, and second time I just forgot you have to fucking lock it in because it doesn't make any damn sense.

Honestly, what is the negative? What is this rule trying to accomplish? If they picked a champion they're obvious here, and playing. If they haven't and the clock hits zero they're probably AFK, so yeah, auto dodge them. Otherwise just lock the damn pick in. The only thing I can think of is to drop the time it takes for champion select to end, and if that's the case you should simply drop the time it takes to pick champion to something like 20-25 seconds instead of 40, since you clearly don't care about giving people the time to actually consider their choice.

Sorry if this seems accusatory or rude, but I'm fairly aggravated. I don't like losing LP for no reason and now I'm locked out of queues for 30 minutes. 30. Not 10. Not 15. Not 25. Half an hour.

Fuck.
