I agree with this. I cant play draft because everyone there is:

Me: Can I play top or jg please? Random Guy: lol stfu noob youre last pick, youre supp Me: This is draft, Im good at those roles and Im 3rd pick... Random Other Guy: Hey! This isnt blink pick, youre supp or dodge!

That's annoying. I enjoyed Team Builder because i was able to pick my lane, my champ and wait for who would accept me. The waiting for me was no problem.

The horrible news is that Team Builder is not just disabled. Riot had deleted Team Builder so we can have it anymore. I didn't know what Team builder was until a month ago. You can pick your own roles and play that very champion. However, dynamic queue and regular queue is just not the same. The game just doesn't feel right when you don't get what you want.

Im a casual player and team builder was perfect. i try out other roles here and there, but usually i stick with 2. Now that dynamic is down, i just played normal draft and guess what i call bot adc but first pick ignores and picks an adc instead. this is why i liked team builder. it took the non sense of calling lanes out of the picture, and you could wait and eventually get the role you wanted. guess im not playing tonight....

BRING BACK TEAM BUILDER!!!

Thank you.

4 lobbies dodged at the last second, then I get hit with a penalty because someone usurped my role (called) and I was forced to dodge. Now I'm here, go figure.

Hotfix your dynamic mess all you want Rito, but at least give us back Teambuilder in its place while you do.

This is two whole steps backwards and its pissing people off.

LazaraelJan 23, 20165 votes

Agreed. Honestly things like dynamic queue and TB cut back so much on unnecessary rudeness and toxicity, and helped make the game a lot more enjoyable, all flaws aside. Right now I don't really want to bother with league. I can play any role alright enough, but its just not worth the potential headaches.

And yes I know this is the way league used to be, I was there.

DrTeathJan 23, 20161 votes

True, unfortunately , it only cuts back, doesn't eliminate.

Well I personally have decided not to give riot any more of my money till they impliment team builder again. Might not do a lick of good, but hey considering how much I've spent in the past I'll be able to buy a ton of new games this year from the money I saved.

High5Jan 22, 20163 votes

They should make a separate queue again. One trick ponies are lazy players who wreck the current system. It's not hard to learn and become competent at all the roles.

I hate seeing people complain about having to pick two roles. Congrats on feeding because you can only top.

RaoulJan 22, 201623 votes

Some people just play like 1 or 2 games a day, they play one role, maybe even just one or two champions, because they liek them. They dont want to play competive, they want to pick their champ and have a quick game.

Exactly. I may play a game or two, and I want to spend it playing the champ I like in the role I want to play. I could not care less about bans and draft. Don't force this 1 playstyle on everyone. More choices = a better game.

CarameI FrappeJan 23, 20163 votes

When you play Ranked, sometimes it is best to do the one trick pony if it helps your team win. Just because i'm alright with ADC doesn't mean I want to be forced into it whnever people want their roles. If I want to mid as Ahri because I can really make a difference then by all means i'll be taking my One Trick Pony medal now please lol.

JanjamojaJan 23, 20166 votes

One issue I have is that, in certain circumstances, you need more than two roles. I play ADC and support. The person I play with most frequently plays support and ADC. Well, one of us has to get cozy with a new role because between the two of us we need to pick three different roles.

We can argue that people should know more roles -- but my question is why. Even when I see professional teams built, they have a player focused on each role, and learning the various champions that can fit into that role. I would prefer to encourage people to play more CHAMPIONS than more roles, and some of the hextech crafting will address that. So.. why, in all seriousness -- not trying to pick a fight -- are we arguing that people need to play more roles? What about being able to play mid makes me a better support, jungler, top, etc?

My experience so far is that people who play more lanes tend to be more toxic. Because they "know" how to play that role, they seem more frustrated when someone else is having trouble in their lane. Which while I understand that.. I'm getting worn out on all the bickering. Quite honestly, I'd rather play with bad friendly players than fantastic argumentative players. Team builder seemed to have mostly like-minded people. It isn't just a system difference, it's a mentality difference that's bothering me in making the switch to the normal queue.

TheHiddenEyeJan 23, 20161 votes

that just happened to me rage all game calls everyone bronze wile he farms jungle till 25 none of our lanes lost but he still rages

warmcorntortillaJan 23, 20162 votes

It takes time to master a role. Having basic competence at everything means having mastery at nothing.

3PowerJan 24, 20161 votes

There's a difference between being unable to play more than one champ and being unable to queue up as the champ you want.

Learn it.

LorelaiLeeJan 23, 20163 votes

Please, please, please give us team builder back.

YoloMcSwagginitoJan 23, 20163 votes

To those suggesting it shouldnt temporarily be brough back: you don't have to play it

InUrKitchenJan 23, 20163 votes

PLEASE RITO - bring back team builder. The new (old) champion select is ruining league.

InUrKitchenJan 23, 20163 votes

I am posting in the middle of an extremely frustrating game. We ended up with two junglers, an adc as mid and a solo bot lane. Guess what? Everyone raged within the first five minutes of the game, people turned into trolls and we are just waiting to surrender at 20 minutes. PLEASE RIOT BRING BACK TEAM-BUILDER! I would be much happier waiting to get into a game where everyone plays the position they want. I work a lot and don't get to play league very often, so I am not interested in mastering every position. This champion select creates a poisonous environment and frankly, its just not worth my time (let alone my money).

DoYouHaveDiscordJan 23, 20163 votes

I truly agree man. When I first discovered team builder, it was the most beautiful thing ever XD...lol I am serious...everyone on my team (including me) became less and less salty...everyone got their main roles...it was awesome...I even used to go on winning strike w/z teambuilder...plz riot listen to him...plus I don't like draft mode that much..because there is that one guy that gets the last pick and he is like "mid or feed" or "mid or afk"....or that one guys that is forced to play a role he cant and no one feels bad for him. All I mean is its unfair...Riot you either put Dynamic queue or team builder. I mean I play both of them and I feel your pain!

BlazinChronicJan 22, 20162 votes

Please bring it back and keep it. I like to play the position i want to play not some postion im not good at or dont like. thanks BlazinChronic

UnderworldvisitoJan 23, 20162 votes

Don't bring it back. Absolutely loved old queues, just more fun in general. Plus, I seem to win more...

"I dont want to be forced into roles I dont like..."

Which is every role other than the one you main? Jeez. I wish it were that easy. POOF! Team-builder is back boys! Go ahead and have the time of your lives! Please, stop being delusional. It's unhealthy.

RaoulJan 23, 20166 votes

You do realise not everyone aims to play the game at a competive level, some just play one game a day or even less to have some fun?

SnoMan206Jan 23, 20162 votes

I am not a fan of being forced into the draft system. I am not good at mid or top really. So when this happens.....

Me: JG Random: JG Random: JG Randon: JG Random: I have Jungle!!!! Random: Sup Random ADC

Yea its kind of frustrating. It forces me into roles I'm not good at and then people complain and report. Or I get a leave buster for either not picking champion or trying to figure out what lane I will be. Fix it please!!

I came across this yesterday or the day before when me and 3 other randoms on my team figured out where we will be going, I was going mid which I got, top was called and the one other random who said nothing went lissandra top... After we talked about this going where etc.

After last night I might just play some aram games or some bots. Ever since team builder was disabled I'm not having as much fun anymore. I seem to get last pick all the time and forced into the support role which I'm not good at.

allonyourfaceJan 24, 20161 votes

no, it's more like this:

Me: top random summoner joins the room Me: top random: Top random: Top Me: Uhh,, I got top? ^random instalocks garen as this is being typed^ random: NOPE! I called first Me: copy paste chat random: lalalala nope you didn't even call it

Splinter ChorizoJan 23, 20162 votes

we are 2016 and it feels like playing league in 2012 with new champs, team builder was a good alternative for playing the role you wanted without having to fight for it. It was a buffer for toxicity, now with the 3 regular game modes blind/draft normal and draft ranked it sucks having fight for a position and if you get it, you might risk someone else flaming the team for not getting what they wanted... RIOT PLEASE [zombie-nunu-bummed]

allonyourfaceJan 23, 20162 votes

I haven't played LoL let alone logged on since the queue have gone down. not gonna fight for a role in normal and not going to risk my ranking by getting a role I'm not good at.

PsalmsJan 24, 20162 votes

I have not played a game all week since losing team builder. The game is simply more frustrating than fun in its current state. You've taken a game I enjoyed and turned it into something stressful. Congrats. Bring Back Team Builder #BBTB

Well at the moment they arent getting any feedback since dynamic has been taken down...so in the meantime why not go back to team builder until they actually fix dynamic?

Why not just learn the game and stop complaining about Team Builder? Team Builder is for lazy people who can't be bothered with being decent team mates in a competitive game.

Team Builder isn't LoL. Learning the map, the 5 lanes and how to build a decent team comp is LoL.

WordseJan 24, 20161 votes

I am bad at video games and am probably as good at LoL as I am going to get I am what you call stupid and slow fingered Not everyone can learn to git gud. Some don't want to some literally are just going to be worse. I am glad you are good at the game I am not and will not ever be so playing a low stakes game is fun for me + I don't have to ruin your time be being terrible at the game if I am in a different Quene I think everyone wold be down with longer wait times if the teams you play with are on the same page of similar skill level. And able to perform.

haseothepkkerJan 24, 20161 votes

Now I love playing me some support Taric, but can we at least please stop shoving incompetent, and unwilling people into support positions? I feel like support is one of the few roles where the person has to know, and give a shit about what their doing. When top fails only one person gets behind on your team, and only one gets ahead on their team. But when a support fails two people on your team are behind, and two people on their team are ahead. Allowing this to happen is literally catastrophic for the game.
