Give Blind Pick role selection

The entire point of Blind Pick is so that you can pick whatever you want without the champ you want to play getting banned or getting directly counterpicked when the enemy sees what you picked.

What Blind Pick isn't about? "I called mid first!"

Remove that element and it's perfect.

You don't need to change how Blind Pick champ select works or anything, I'm just saying toss a big text on top of their name that says what role they were assigned. That's it.

No more first to lock in or first to call in chat.

I swear Riot were meant to do this when they updated champion select but didn't bother.

or since they are happy to rip ideas off of dota

just do what dota does for it's allpick mode

where there's a map and you can just click and drag where you want to lane. No shouting in chat. no people spamming chat with copy pastes of how "I said mid first look my copy paste shows it"

But that isn't the "entire point of Blind Pick"

The point of Blind Pick is to make Matchmade PVP games available to players that don't have more than 21 champions, because any less than that and they could potentially have all of their champions picked or banned away from them.

For the most part, this means you're likely dealing with players that have less experience with the game in general. Which only adds to the problem of role selection.

I think with people hating autofill already, doubt they would want in blind as well, but meph since it is already like you get auto filled anyway?

This would solve a lot of problems. I say let people queue for a role AND pick their champion before queuing, THAT would be a blind mode where everyone gets what they want,, and new players are encouraged to pick a role, because we all know the roles are now set in stone.

blind pick is faster without ban the champion. However, most of the toxic player in a blind pick when I click top for example. They go fuck you bitch, I am top. Then get into the game they go fed for the whole game. It is not even a bronze player like that, sometime you will see Gold player act like that too. WTF????
