Autofill tuning in preseason @Riot @ghostcrawler
I am wondering if you have any thoughts about the current autofill tuning. I get autofilled into a role outside my selections about every six games or so, which seems pretty reasonable, doesn't bother me.
But my first choice role is usually bot lane adc, and a very high % of the games where I get adc, my support is complaining in champ select about being autofilled, particularly in ranked. This has lead to increased dodges and increased troll pick supports. Personally, I like playing as and with off meta supports. But not when the person playing the off meta support is just playing a champ they like from their preferred role with no intention of fulfilling the support function (or perhaps no clue how to do so).
Personally, I would much rather wait a few more minutes to have someone that knows how and, more importantly, wants to play support. And so far this preseason it feels like the worst of both worlds because the increased number of dodges is increasing my time to get into games and I still end up with an unhappy support on a knife's edge of tiliting at the slightest thing.
Have you noticed any trends along these lines? Is it maybe obsevation bias or bad luck in a small sample size? Anyone else noticing the same in their games?
