Potential League voice chat?

I heard about this sometime last year from a riot employee that they were considering implementing a voice chat into league (sort of like the one they have in overwatch right now) However, the idea seemed to just have dissolved. Can a riot member confirm that the idea is dead or is it still being considered?

I feel like a voice chat would be a lot better with REDUCING toxicity. (Often times i think people are less aggressive and more modest when speaking with their voice) Furthermore, a voice chat enhances communication and team macro which intrinsically makes the game easier to play as teammates are able to connect more efficently. I do feel that toxicity may potentially become more potent, but i think people are more willing to mute a voice chat rather than a text chat.

I find myself often inviting my team to a discord chat in my ranked games and sometimes that gets a little bit mundane, if League were to have an in-game chat, definitely help with making the game more enjoyable. Thanks for reading!

IIRC they confirmed that it's coming, but...

only for premades.

Meaning you still won't be able to communicate with your team over voice in solo queue :(
