Odyssey Onlsaught missions total failure

The augment restriction missions are the most contra-productive execution of all the missions so far. Most games end in an instant surrender because one person has more than the requested amount of augments. On the other hand, you're not allowed to try out a full 5 augments build because in every champ select, at least one person will request for a 2 or 3 augments setup and will most likely troll/afk if they don't get it.

Both players who want to complete the missions and those who don't are screwed by it. These missions can't be allowed in a soloQ matchmaking. While limiting it to premade 5 is also not ideal, it at least reliefs one group of people (those who just want to play the gamemode). Ideally, custom games should be promoted to be the gametype of choice over matchmaking when it comes to completing missions like this. Going to the boards to find people willing to play with you is a hazard. We need a way in-client to find other players. Custom games can already work, but people are not enough aware of it's existence and utilities. A newspost promoting it would help greatly. Missions that specifically require you to play a custom game would help even more. Allowing us to play RGMs in customs and complete PvE missions would be amazing (so we don't have to cancel the custom game to invite everyone to 'queue' with 5 people who were already in the custom game).

On a sidenote, where the f*** are public chat rooms???

Aye, it does not feel very good, but I can wholeheartedly recommend the LoL subreddit Discord to find a group for the missions. It's easy as they've got LFG rooms where you just say which mission you want to do and your IGN, then someone will pick you up shortly.

I too was incredibly frustrated by the missions, but it went smooth as butter once I played with folks from the Discord.
