Can I please have support as secondary again?

I'm tired of picking bottom, support, and then getting someone that is losing the game on purpose as my support for the team. I want to bring back the secondary position instead of always getting my primary 'just because'. I don't want to get stuck with some random top lane 0/10/0 for life player [an exaggeration but I'm seriously tired of this BS where someone refuses to actually play the game] as my support ally please.

I want to play anything that isn't support without feeling like I'm forcing someone else to play support. I'd rather play support and have the joy of teamwork than get stuck playing the slot I want to at the moment but also on a team that doesn't function from minute zero.

I'm confused. What exactly are you trying to say? Supposedly, if people are to be believed, autofill is less prevalent now. If you got a bad support, at the very least, the support actually queued support primary. I'm a support main, but sometimes queue bot/support or top/support and usually get my primary.

Getting the role you want most (your primary) isn't a bad thing. :Tc

Maybe you got matched with a premade that queued without a bot, but the support's role was already taken within the premade (say they wanted mid, maybe)? It's a fringe case, still.

I'd rather deal with whatever we have now and actually get people getting what they want than have support be unnecessarily weighted heavier.

Maybe it wouldn't make a difference for toxicity's sake but I dislike the existence of secondary now because it might as well not even exist with how irrelevant it is. Also I had someone say they chose middle, top or was it top, middle and got bottom anyway. And yes, he was inting that game. So no, I don't think autofill is happening less often. It's probably happening more often. It just happens to more consistently be happening to the support.
