Possible fix to trolling in champ select (For Rank Solo/Duo)

Cratus··1 votes·292 views

I see that a lot of people have been having trouble with trolls in champ select, and right now the only two options are to take the loss of the game and lose 15+ lp or to dodge and lose 3 lp and take the 5 minute queue timer, and both of these options are rather unfair. What I think a viable solution would be, in the cases for Ranked Solo/Duo only, is to allow report/vote to kick system inside champ select, and if a certain number of people report/vote to kick the person that is trolling champ select, the queue will be disbanded and the person that was reported/kicked will lose some lp, be given a timer and be given how ever many reports he got in champ select to his account, and every one else is just in another queue. This will very rarely abused, as if it's only in Solo/Duo and you need 3 or 4 reports to get the person kicked, that means even if a Duo tries to abuse the system to get a free dodge, they will have to get one or two randoms to also want to kick the person. What can also be added is if the person felt like they were wrongly kicked, they can start a support ticket and argue it. This is just a thought and would need fleshing out, but I thought can at least be somewhat viable and I would prefer this to the current system.

It sounds good on paper but here is the problem.

People would use it to essentially control picks of team mates. Top picks a split pusher instead of a heavy tank. Report. Support doing something off meta. Report. Someone trying to play a new champ that got pass the ban phase? Report.

Unless someone clearly states they are going to troll, then there will be a lot of contesting and man power to try and deal with this. If the chat is what tips it, people may just stay silent and pick whatever they want. Potentially getting voted and then contesting it, even though they meant to troll.

Well I mean what if it had to be all 4 of the other teammates to report him, wouldn't that make it to where almost always the person getting reported is actually trolling in order to get all 4 to report?

But if your the only one who starts the kick/report, nothing should happen because the other 3 would have to also say yeah kick the guy. But I do see your point, I just really want a better system than now.

And that is fair, I would love one too. Lets build on his example.

You looked him up and know this. Would you really not tell your team mates this? They would either verify or believe you.

I've decided to play Teemo in the top lane.

"Gets kicked and lose points."

What the fuck, Rito?

My point is that there's potential in the concept, but I feel that the cons will outweigh the pros. Particularly if the rest of your team are the dinks.
