It seems that the new champ select hasn't made it any easier to actually get into a game, as my friends and I are on our 8th attempt at getting into a game. Has this been the case for others as well? Wasn't this supposed to cut down the number of dropped lobbies? What does it take to actually get into a game now?
It's because the new queue doesn't automatically lock in champs for you. You HAVE to lock in manually, or otherwise everyone gets shoved back into matchmaking and it's treated exactly like a queue dodge. A lot of people are used to champs getting locked in for them after the timer expires, so they don't expect the whole lobby being terminated. It's kind of dumb tbh, I have no idea why it got implemented.
