The first problem is that I have been getting my second pick more than my first. Now people on my team are banning people chosen on our team. So, if I say I am going to pick Nocturne, somebody from my team bans Nocturne to be funny.
This shit has gotta get fixed. We did not have these problems with Teambuilder.
TeemoJenkins1 votesThe "Intent champ" is a weird screen right now... I've just been putting Teemo regardless of my lane assignment... then I pick my actual champ.
gottrjr1 votesI am going start to doing the same thing. Just so my intent champ doesn't get banned by my own team.
Arkainmon1 votesI too have experienced this problem, basically anyone who has third-fifth pick can hold the champion you want to play for ransom, and say "give me this champ or I'll ban that champ". Which really leaves you with two options, waste thirty minutes of your time or more playing match with a toxic player, then report them for grieving under unsportsmanlike conduct, or dodging, the queue allowing the offender to go unpunished whilst your are the one suffering the five minute delay.

Five minutes if you only dodge once but I have had to dodge multiple times. This ish is broken.
Dukues1 votesEh I usually don't early pick my champion becuase wtf the point. If its ranked I might show who I am going to be but otherwise its w/e. Played a norms last night where I was second ban and had panth highlighted. My 1st ban teammate banned panth.... now its norms and I am in group with 2 other guys so when it got to my ban I was just like "meh f this guy" and banned Alistar (who he had selected).
I guess panth is played a good amount but figured there was an chance he was trolling. Either way me and my buds had a good laugh while my teammate was mad. He was going to go Alistar mid though... so fuck em. Just shake it off man... that was the first time I had seen anyone do that and I literally laughed my ass off. I can see other people doing it to be dicks... so just don't highlight the champ you want to play. If its Yas, Rengar, lee, other super popular champs right now then yea... they will probably be banned. If not then you should be fine.

I would understand if this was the first time it happened but it has happened multiple times. I am just going to leave it blank.
Arkainmon1 votesThat is actually a good tip, to leave it blank if are second or first pick to leave it blank, and then select whom you want when it's your turn to prevent people from holding the champ you want to play for ransom. I shall remember that in the future.
