As a flex player, it's pretty bogus how I can essentially only queue as 2 roles

I play all 5 roles, and I enjoy the diversity

This season I either put 2 specified roles and suffer really long queue times (sometimes 12+mins??) Or I put fill which is basically support

I just want to play all 5 roles at approximately the same frequency, Rito pls

Edit: Clarification Of course I could just randomly pick my roles, that's what I'm doing right now but when I only put 2 roles the matchmaking time is way longer. I was in queue for 14 minutes as Top/Bot before I decided to make this post.

What I would like there to be is a 'equal-fill' option where the match-maker will trend towards an even distribution of roles, but will find a reasonable equilibrium between queue time vs role assignment.

My guess is this option would work really well since I imagine there are a lot of players out there who might opt for this choice, so the matchmaker would have an easy time evenly distributing roles as opposed to now where the 'fill' population isn't nearly as large as the population of players who are actually willing to play all 5 positions.

Then first queue up as top/mid, then mid/jungle, then jungle/adc, then adc/support, then support/top, and then the cycle repeats.

Buy a 6-faces die online.

Roll it to get your first role :

1 Top 2 Mid 3 Jungle 4 Adc 5 Support 6 Fill

Do the same for the second dice and reroll if it gets the same result of the first dice; and this is your second role.

Congratulations, you now can play all 5 roles with approximately the same frequency, with true random.

That is not wrong.

Fill is doing exactly what it is supposed to... it is putting you into what is highest demand... conversely if you put jungle/support, you get primary support and secondary jungle (For some insane reason). There is no parallel, fill is working perfectly fine.
