About Role Ranked

I dislike role-ranked. I have had games where people do not get a role that they care about (say a Jungler gets placed top) and they just decide to not try anymore. There is basically nothing stopping them from throwing, as they only get -3 LP to the lane they care about if they lose the game. Furthermore, I prefer having an overall rank, as I believe my skill level is based on my ability to play in ANY role, not having to specifically rank up each individual lane. I think the old system of having just one overall rank would be much better in the long run.

Furthermore, you have people such as HuzzyGames that does the "Iron to Diamond" series, and if role ranked were a thing in EUWest, then that video idea would be shot, as he would have to specifically play one lane and the videos would get stale. It basically cuts down on my overall enjoyment of A) Watching videos for entertainment, B) Playing ranked in general as I feel forced into playing the same game over and over to climb, and C) Dealing with toxic players who feel they have no punishment if they decide to throw.

The idea sounds good in theory, but I don't think the playerbase of League of Legends is really built for the idea of specialization in a specific role, especially at lower ranks. Overall, I think role ranked has a severely negative impact on the game, at least in my personal enjoyment.
