Team Builder Feedback

Hi, I just want to give my feedback on the Team Builder system, not like Riot care, even though Riot should.

I don't know how to put this without sounding like I'm flaming, but I'm not, I'm just trying to be honest and give my feedback.

First, when I heard about a Team Building system being implemented, I was happy and I thought it would be so much more different and simple. I thought it would just be role pick first, then champion select, regardless of what you are playing(blind pick, draft pick, ranked), since I believe this is the main issue, that players want to play the same role as each other.

So why make things so complicated and give no freedom whatsoever? You pick role, champion and runes and then everything is locked up, you can't counter pick, you can't choose team composition, since everyone is stuck with his champion from the very beginning.

It is very nice that Riot is trying to fix these issues, but I don't think this is how it will be accomplished.

I think role picking before champ select with current game modes is the way to go. Let's say I want to queue in Solo Ranked Queue, I do just like we do it at the moment, but before going to champion select, a window pops up asking my role, I go into queue, wait for team to complete, then regular champion select, and there, aside my name in parenthesis will be my role "My Name(my role)".

And I don't think I need to explain the whole logic for every mode, like if in party, if any of your teammates chose the same role as you, you can't go into queue until everyone in the party has selected a different role(obviously), and stuff like that.

I think this is what most players were expecting, team builder just for roles, if you want to jungle, team builder parties you with the other 4 roles.

Team Builder uses the blind pick structure.... how are you expecting to counter-pick in blind pick? The premise of this live beta is to test the general structure and format of Team Builder, it isn't finished and they're still working on it. Did you even try to look up information and posts about Team Builder before making this?

I did read, but as they mentioned in the FAQ on the question "Why is Team Builder not available for ranked?" they say "we’re not quite sure yet how these would fit into Team Builder", I'm trying to give some constructive feedback and suggest how to fit Team Builder into every game mode, while you are just trying to be a douche.

Reading just the flat QA doesn't give you any information. They are already 6-8 threads that have gone through the forums on Dev Tracker explaining that they would never implement this in ranked without adjusting it to allow for a pick and ban phase that would keep banning strategies and counter picking intact. They've already said this will absolutely not replace any other queue format and that even if it goes to ranked there will still be a standard ranked queue like already exists. They've already said that this is being worked on and have addressed literally everything you've said weeks ago.

Learn how to research on your own. Part of being a member of a forum community is being responsible for your own research and information and being informed. It's just like participating in a political forum, it's your responsibility to be a capable adult and behave reasonably. That's your burden, not anyone else in the community to go around and link farm for you.
