@Riot Can we have a dodge allowance?

I generally don't like to dodge, I could probably count my dodges on one hand for all seasons. However, I just dodged a game with my team queueing up as Alistar jungle, Shaco mid, and Teemo top. I know Teemo top is niche meta, but they are prone to tilt and be worthless (when they're on my team of course, when they're on the opposing team they're prone to one-shot me with shrooms. But I digress.)

You could make an argument of some cool off meta Alistar jungle that some streamer tried once, or Shaco mid is actually hidden OP, but everyone in chat was already bitching and saying GG. This is a game that I don't want to play.

Would it be wholly unreasonable if we got 3 dodges (or 2) per day (below Challenger, where they can usually tell by their friends list who they're queued against) where we are not given a time or LP penalty? It just feels bad, and it feels like a major oversight that Riot forces me into "participate in this miserable clown fiesta with probable racial slurs and essays in all chat or we dock you."

Just had to dodge a game where I was going to play support, simply because I had a Caitlin who wanted me to ban Annie.

Yep, would have lost that one. So bump. Bump bump bump.

Half an hour dodge penalty for dodging Quinn support. So mother fucking bump please rito stop.

Go directly to hell. Do not pass Go, do not collect $200. People like you cause Pandas to become sterile. I love ARAM and when people dodge ARAM because they didn't get what they wanted counters the whole point of it. When ARAM was first invented players would honorably stick by their choices. Now all the dodgers ruin it. Do you know how many times I lost out on playing Ziggs in ARAM because some douche dodged on the other side?

In fact I am officially here to encourage stricter penalties for dodging in all ques except for ranked. ( Mostly because Trolls warrant dodging in ranked. )

However if you dodge in ARAM, 48 hour ban timer, maybe that will discourage people from queing up for it without consideration.

What the fuck. You told me to go to hell then agreed with me. Put the crack pipe down.
