new que system has many failings
The new que system is utter trash compared to team builder.
This is why:
- you arent guaranteed to play the role you wish to play (in my experience i get my primary role half the time)
- people can ban your champion
- people can counterpick your champion
- if someone else on the opposing team picks your champion you are prevented from using it
- que times take significantly longer for support and adc than in team builder (2 minutes now compared to 10 seconds before)
- it is a lot easier for the lobby process to fail due to requiring 6 people to both ban a champion and lock in (vs simply readying in teambuilder)
- the lobby process takes significantly longer (due to champion banning)
Reasons 2 and 4 can be generalized into it not guaranteeing that you play your preferred champion, that along with reason 1 is very concerning. Being bale to select your role and champion were hallmarks of why teambuilder was so successful and this new que system removes that and instead provides players with a system that not only wastes significant amounts of time but may cause them to be in game with a champion that they do not want to play in a role they also do not want to play. I find myself wondering why I should even play anymore when this que system potentially prevents players from having any fun.
