Riot, it's fucking time to do something about champ select trolls

chipndip1··9 votes·563 views

Game from yesterday: I'm in promos. My jungler picks WW. My top picks Amumu when my jungler CLEARLY states he doesn't want to switch roles. My WW goes top. My Amumu decides to int feed, then we talk him out of it, then my TOP DECIDES TO INT BECAUSE MY JG DIDN'T INT.

Today: A fucking duo decides to troll our game and force a dodge because I banned a champ he didn't pick intent (Lucian...someone that's very well worth a ban too).

I can't even go through the effort to screen cap and report these guys manually because Riot tells me I have to lose lp and then use the fucking report button. So if I can't dodge and report, give us an option to better deal with champ select trolls. I'm absolutely tired of your match making just deciding I have to lose by giving me people that want nothing more in a ranked environment than to sink my lp over petty shit. It's not fair that decent players are always victims to toxic ones.

I think this is a reasonable complaint, and I'm certain Riot is very aware and frustrated with Champ select trolls, but I think the problem is how do you stop champion select trolls?

You can report after game, but this requires some games before its acknowledged that this person is a troll, so they have some games where they can troll.

Maybe if the troll is obnoxious enough they can be reported some games but not enough so that they avoid being caught but continue to troll.

If an option existed to report before game, I'd imagine its possible for this to be abused by the troll or maybe someone would report an off meta pick before the game begins as trolling.

I think this is one of those cases where a problem is big but (at least I think) there isn't a very great way to bypass problems. If someone has an idea, I'm curious on what it is.

There's also the possibility I'm wrong and Riot hasn't looked into this at all. Or there's an easy solution that I'm not aware of. This post hopefully deals with that case?

Then we have people like this lol. Literally has this as a macro and was spamming it. Oh yeah this is after he inted and left the game prior.

But of course, he won't get punished. Godbless.

Assassins shouldn't be able to just 1v2 freely. Stop asking for it.

If you frame champ balance like this, stop talking about champ balance

Honestly: "Scaling into being unstoppable" isn't an acceptable game play niche
