Please stop asking to remove Blind Pick just because normal draft is being removed.

A lot of you are just throwing a tantrum over your draft pick but do not realize Blind pick is the last essence of what the game is. A game. Not a militarian controlled hive mind set were people have to play predetermined roles. You can double jungle, double mid w/e. you don't know who you are fighting against. That's whatever, you don't have to deal with 5 minutes of people taking their turns picking a champion for in the end someone dodges. + the queue time for someone to finally decide to go support. Blind pick is named wrongly. After years of league Blind pick should be renamed, I just wanna play a game with whatever happens, I just wanna do me. Blind pick should be renamed to Play.

Dealing with the Bans and taking turns picking it's dreadful as shit. Do not remove our baby it's what has kept us going in league. I feel Blind pick is the real SR league of legends, everything else is just catering to eSports or metas. The countless streamers that only play blind pick trolling or trying new things it has also helped the community grow exponentially.

they do it because normal draft pick is the superior mode blind had to be removed long ago to make draft popular

this will not speed up queue times by much. The reason it's so long is because people don't want to support. Maybe they should make changes to support role to make it more fun or exciting for people to wanna play it. That would speed up the queue's a lot more than forcing a single game mode.

with the old draft you didn't queue for a role and ended support if you were unlucky and got the last pick or if you weren't assertive enough against last pick callers

btw back then supports were that unfun so riot was afraid to make new support champions since people didn't want to waste 6300 ip on them

so? people go into blind pick knowing what they're going through. Maybe there'd be 2 adc or double jungle. Shit i'ved played blind pick games with 3 junglers. I don't see that happening in Draft pick with hur dur meta mentality.

Normal Draft will be retired at the start of preseason for all regions except North America, Europe West, and Brazil. Our goal is to offer the fewest number of queues that give unique experiences (so we can keep queues healthy) while keeping disruption low, and in all regions except NA/EUW/BR, normal draft had very low participation. In an ideal world, we’d like to retire normal draft in all regions.

IT IS NOT BEING REMOVED IN NORTH AMERICA , EUW OR BRAZIL

IN THE REGIONS IT IS BEING REMOVED IT ISNT PLAYED AND BLIND PICK AND RANK IS PLAYED MORE THEN NORMAL DRAFT MODE queues for extended periods of times... the server space and etc it takes to run it would be streamed lined for those regions removing it...

as far as " In an ideal world, we’d like to retire normal draft in all regions "

basically they want to people either do blind pick ( for those who cant rank low level /not enough champs etc or those who dont care to rank ) or for everyone to do rank... to boost their rank #s...

making the queues in ranks less by making you either play rank... or blind pick
