Autofill

I mean tell me how its fair to be filled into a position that you have no idea how to play. I am not saying that autofill is a terrible thing, i think in lower elo where people like myself are still trying to learn the game bronze,silver,gold. i would rather wait extra time so i dont get autofilled so i can play something i am familar with, sorry i havent been playing since season 1. I think if there is an autfill that you should be filled into a postion that you relatively have experience with. so lets say you pick jg #1 Top#2 and your 3rd most played postion is mid think i think you should have more probability to get placed into a role you decently know how to play. ANYONE play evlove before? 1>2>3>4>5 choose your roles in which youd like to play, then you would at least or very rarely get your 5th picked role. Thoughts?

I got in a game where i queued for support or mid and someone else got support. I got something else and they didnt even queue support. Was weird.

Yeah, I've seen that happen a lot. It unnecessarily auto fills people, I would be in a 4 man group and two people would Q support, buthe a guy who didn't got the role.

You know, you could just learn every role. Just learn one or two champions per role you can survive on, and accept that you don't have to carry that game. Take Vladimir mid, for example. Don't play mid but get autofilled in it? With him you at least can survive.

Too bad the only reliable way to climb is to hard carry and you cant do that as support.

All you need to do when you get autofilled is to survive, if you are forced into a role you dont know how to carry reliably on. It's better to just play safe and still be able to cc the enemy team for your team, than to try and hard carry, only to feed and get the enemy fed.

But the thing is when you get placed from autofill in your worst out of the 5 roles when the probability of someone else on your team being better at that particular role than yourself why are we being forced to play in positions we are not wanting to play in a ranked queue? we should choose role priority like best-worst, at least this way it'd be easier to find 5 people per team that all have relatively decent knowledge on what they are playing. OR OR OR, why fix something that is not broken? Queueing in season 6 almost all season was fine for most people. For instance you say you dont have to do well in your role, but that isnt true. Lets say you have the 4 people on your team all playing roles they are decent at, and all 5 players on the opposite team get the main role, you now have a 5v4 with one person trying to play their best without getting flamed by their team for playing poorly. All i am saying is this shouldnt be an issue and there should be a better alternative.
