Remove trading from soloq/draft pick

Seriously, its literally only used to piss people off or the rare case when someone actually cares about getting a champion before the enemy team, or otherwise with a duo queue or premade.

I was in a draft pick a second ago(pretty much why I'm raging about this) and 3rd pick says "adc pref," then last pick says "adc pref," and during the champion bans 3rd pick pissed off first so he goes and grabs the ADC last pick wants and trades with her. In the end, first pick didn't say what he wanted fast enough, last pick locked in Blitzcrank even though there was already a support, and so they went Blitz mid pretty much dooming us to lose from the start. So I dodged.

Now I have to wait and lose LP all because this guy got pissed and realized you could trade. So why is it even there? Its almost never used EXCEPT for that. Just remove it from soloqueue because there's almost no reason for it to be there. Team ranked? Yeah, you use it a lot. LCS? Yep, almost every pick is in order of what will probably be taken by the enemy team first. Soloqueue or draft? Nope, pretty much just used by trolls and duo'ers.

There's a lot of duo's and a lot of uses for it in soloqueue. But of course, it's less useful in lower tiers. Because a lot of people just don't care to be helpful for their teams.

FunFact: Blitz mid is viable as APCrank

The trading isn't what ruined your team comp there. There was a lack of communication and the guy who didn't realize there was already a support picking Blitz.

you don't even describe it as him trolling you, just him messing up. It's not due to trading being a thing. That can happen in blind pick too where there is no trading, but people just don't pay attention to what has already been called, or picked.

Really? It's only used to piss people off? You got mad and went to complain about this one time affair on the boards... demanding trading be banned forever. What's wrong with using it for duo'ers anyways? Nothing. And trading isn't the problem here, it's immature ragers. Trading has saved me many times where we messed up selections.

Things are applicable in different ways at higher levels of play than yours.
