Being Auto-Filled Sucks, Speak Up In Chat!

I have noticed that when someone gets Auto-filled one of their first reactions is to Dodge. Ok thats fine, but its another reaction that bothers me more, giving up or trolling.

Listen people, if you get auto-filled SPEAK UP. If you are a terrible ADC (like me) and you get auto-filled into ADC, say something in chat and ask if anyone is willing to switch. If you see someone complaining about being auto-filled and you can play that role, speak up. Why potentially lose the game and waste 30+ minutes because you wanted to play a certain role? If you want to win you all need to work together and most of the time that means compromising.

Autofill has put us all in an a precarious position, there is always the threat of being placed into your worst role in a Ranked game. So as a team you should all work together to come up with a way for everyone to play a role they are decent at. You don't necessarily need to give up your role though, if you just explain that you think you can carry as long as they don't feed. However! IF YOU DON'T SWITCH ROLES WITH SOMEONE WHO IS AUTO-FILLED TO THEIR WORST ROLE, YOU CAN'T COMPLAIN IF THEY DO POORLY...

You can't expect someone to play a role and champion they don't play often, and perform well with it. Specially at lower elo's where people already struggle with mechanical skills and decision making, how can you expect them to do both of those on a champion/role they never play?

So for now, everyone should be willing to trade or at least be understanding when someone gets a role they don't play often. One day you will be that person, do you want people to flame you when you don't do well?

I like autofill. Sometimes it puts me in junga or mid.
