A possible add to "fill"?

The Green Guy·May 30, 2019·6 votes·4,963 views

Hey everyone! A few days ago, I sent to the player support a question about the current state of the "fill" role in the game. I got a response saying that it was a pretty good idea, and that I needed to send it here. So here is my idea and how I came to think like that.

When I play with a premade group of five of my friends, we usually all pick fill, then jump in a game and we play the role that we are given. The only thing is, that in the current state of the game, I HATE jungling, like really much. I would (almost) always find someone to take my role and get onto one of the lanes.

So I got this idea : Would it be possible to add a button, that makes that you can "take out" one of the lanes when you fill?

Have a great time The Green Guy

Or everyone puts in something, and everyone gets what they put in.

When queuing with 4 more premades I don't see a reason why not.

When queuing for ranked/draft it would be a good idea but with the prerequisite that you can't "deselect" support. For obvious reasons.

vetoing a role made almost everyone veto support

almost being key word

this increased queue times and decreased matchmaking quality

you can google this topic and you will find 100s of threads and as many answers from riot stating why it was a good idea in theory but a terrible idea in practice

Did they even try doing it without enabling the "veto support" option though?

why would that be an option? what if in 1 year adc becomes the least played and desired role will riot have to change the veto limits again? ask for a trade with someone or just tell them that if you get w/e role you like you would like to swap with someone instead

adc for sure jungle is still highly sought after because beside mid and top it has the 3rd highest agency and it also decides mid and top soo

in diamond i get secondary every 10 games when i queue for jungle i don't queue for adc but my other roles are once in 20-30 games

probably because you play in dia, jungle is considerably less popular the lower MMR you go so for the total league population it is the least popular role currently.

that may indeed be the case being the teams punching bag isn't the most desirable role even if it's one of the most impactful

don't think it has much to do with being the teams punching bag, the entire jungle got reworked making everyone have to pretty much relearn it and it was also made way less interactive and restrictive which is why I for example stopped playing it.

Let me change that. So I got this idea : Would it be possible, when in a premade group of five, to add a button that you can "Take out" one of the lanes when you fill?
