Waiting 15 Minutes for Dodging.......

Why should I be punished 15 minutes for dodging in champion select? If I have to dodge 2 out of 3 champion selects there is an issue and it is not myself. What is wrong with people? Why are you flaming each other in champion select? Im sorry but if I see people fighting on my own team in champion select, I am dodging. There is no chance I will spend upwards of 20 minutes trying to play with these guys, its ridiculous I would have to be punished at all for this. The dodging penatlies are what keep people in lobbies that they shouldn't stay in. It creates a "gg" attitude before the game has even started. I for one will take the penalty, but its ridiculous that I am now being punished 15 minutes everytime I dodge.

Next to flamers in champion select is the babies who play draft. Look. If you play draft you better have champs ready for each role. EVERYTIME the last 2 people will be whining that they have to supp or jung or whatever, they refuse to communicate and then just when you think they dodged..... nope, they click the most random champ they have that in no way covers the role they were suppose to play. So I dodge obviously. This is getting ridiculous. I am being punished because I am the only one responsible enough to dodge toxic lobbies.

Consider removing this dodging penalty, because just like often happens in league, you are punishing everyone but the trolls. Will dodging be abused? Possibly. I guarantee though that this will only temporarily be the case. Eventually people are going to start using their heads in champion select, if they are being an idiot and people keep dodging their lobbies than eventually they will calm down so they can actually play the game.

Last note: DONT QUE IF YOU DONT HAVE 45 MINS - 1 HOUR AVAILABLE "ff im hungry" IS UNACCEPTABLE. DONT QUE IN DRAFT OR RANKED IF YOU ARENT UP FOR ANY ROLE. COMMUNICATE

I'm one of those babies.

The people in the top 3 picks have now shown me they have no intention of working as a team, because they just took the 3 roles I told them I can play well. I mean, what sort of logic is this? You are mad that last pick can't fill a role, yet you willingly took the role he can play because your selfishness is more important than working as a team and trying to win the match. You'd rather get your comfort pick than win the match. That's what it boils down to. It's a hard pill to swallow, but it's the truth.

I dislike this mindset that you "BETTER HAVE CHAMPS READY FOR EACH ROLE" like we all have thousands of hours to dedicate to learning each role proficiently. Because this aggressive mindset comes from the same people who will lock in the champ that last pick says is his best role, just out of principle.

You. (YES YOU, OP) are one of the people who will lock your own comfort pick champ, and leave last pick stuck with support... when they JUST said they are absolute trash with it. Where is your logic for this? You have just doomed your team. You'd rather prove a point than win the match. It's CONVENIENT for you... because now you can try to do well on your comfort pick and if you win, you can claim you carried. If you lose, you can put all the blame on the last pick who got stuck in a role they can't play and admitted they couldn't play. But at least you were "right" about last pick needed to know all roles.

The only reason last pick needs to know all roles is because you're too selfish to bite the bullet and play something other than your comfort pick in order to help your team out.

Ya players, I'll dodge and make you requeue on a whim, but damnit you'll do what I SAY or ELSE!

Dodging penalties suck, especially when you get troll teammates in ranked.

Update: I typed that up while I was waiting out a 15 minute penalty, que up again... EXACT SAME THING HAPPENS.

PEOPLE, SUPPORT IS AN IMPORTANT ROLE AND ALWAYS WILL BE, LEARN IT.. YOU WILL HAVE TO PLAY IT SOMEDAY. Its getting really old watching people act like babies over having to play support.

Update #2: Waited 15 minutes again, now im in a lobby and 3 people are flaming each other right from the start. Apparently they played together earlier and feel the other is toxic....

3/3 lobbies today have been flamers/people who troll pick because they only know one lane.

(Is this where I ask if you're in low priority queue for afk'ing?) I've never had consecutive troll / flamers games. I guess I'm just blessed by the Riot Deities.
