Dear RIOT, Stop giving me Jungle.

The whole point of preferred roles is to be able to queue for a specific role, I enjoy playing Mid/Support, I DO NOT ENJOY JUNGLE. I have never once put Jungle as a preferred role option, and yet I find myself forced into this role rather than any other lane when for whatever reason you decide to autofill me.

I dislike Jungle so much, that I would rather dodge the game than be forced to play a role I am not comfortable with and do not enjoy playing, because I know my odds of losing that game go up dramatically. Please, Stop giving me Jungle. I am fine with longer Queue times, let me play the roles I want to play and not be forced into other roles I know I will perform poorly in.

Man you are queuing with Support as an option and still getting Jungler? That's rough. Jungling has gotten so hard that people like it even less than Support. :( On the bright side I queue Jungle/Mid and get my Jungle every time!

I am all for playing jungle any time it comes up as long as it is on Nexus Blitz.

its not that jungling is hard, its more or less that jungling is a diceroll and a prayer that your mid laner wins/has priority, or else you(the jungler) doesnt get to play the game.

its really stupid to have a entire role gated behind the success of another role.

and also its not to say that your mid laner is bad for losing or never having priority. Some matchups are a default loss. Some mid lane champs never have priority. But boy oh boy does it impact the jungler severely.

If your jungler picked Elise or Lee, you can get away with playing whatever you want mid. But any other jungler is gonna be dependent on the mid laner winning or having good lane control, so, something to keep in mind when u pick ur mid lane champ.
