Team Vote to Dodge a Game in Champ Select?

Last night in champ select our adc wouldn't give his role to the 3 man premade so one locked in soraka top, saying she was quote "gonna have fun giving away our lp" while the others started nonstop flaming the adc and myself even for some reason lol, so I dodged the game. Obviously not wanting to deal with 20+ minutes of trolls (i.e. just wanting to play a semi-normal game.)

Today, I que'd up in the almost same situation. I accepted the match, ran to let the dog out, and came back to a pure s**tfest lol. The supp just spamming "wow ok" "wow ok" over and over again while locking in mf supp, the adc had locked rengar with ghost tp and was aggressively flaming our top and jg, our top was typing like a legitimate 6 year old and was already threatening to afk, SO, I DODGED.

30 MINUTE PENALY :/

I was just placed silver V and am gaining 26 lp a game. I believe if you deserve to climb your games will even out, BUT... I do not have time to play many games between schoolwork, work, social obligations, and trying to teach a friend to play. I do not have time to play a troll game, especially when it's the only game I could play that day in a specific timeslot.

What do you guys/galls think about ** A TEAM VOTE TO DODGE THE GAME**, almost like ff in champ select if there is already a horrible disagreement or known troll in your match? Just dissolves the Que and no one is penalized.

Yes it would be abused by people not wanting to play against yasuo and other FotM picks. Yes it would be abused by people not wanting to play with the plat in their diamond 1 games, but that is a matchmaking problem anyway. That is also a tiny minority that wouldn't succeed in most rational ques, AND those people seem like the ones that would afk or "gg" when the other team gets 2 kills early or something else stupid. Que times are long but I'd rather "waste" my time for a good game then be "wasting" 40 minutes of my day in a troll game.

I think leave the Q times long anf allow us to vote to Dodge, The wait time alone for Dodging should prevent people from abusing it and only use it when they need to, It wouild also be nice if they showed Players Ping when they enter champ select

Cool idea, but would be heavily abusable by premades and off meta picks might never happen. for instance a premade could troll by just constantly voting to dodge or keep rotating through until they force someone to pick the champion they want. If someone mains something kinda off meta (like pre rework yorick) then people might just vote dodge becasue they want someone better in their games.
