I feel like every single game of my series or promos I always end up last pick without fail. I am Gold 1 now playing with Plat 3-4s so I don't think its just a coincidence.
Anyone else have this happen to them?
Deep Terror Nami1 votesI've only had first pick like 3 times. The only other times, the game was dodged and I wasn't first pick again... Which is lame because I always ask my team what they want to use and ban before making my choices, while most people simply auto-ban what they don't want to face in their own lane.

Not true. People meta ban. Its soloq no ones going to pick a team that works well together so you have no choice but to ban the meta op which is generally 2 tank jungle like sej, hecarim, mumu, gragas etc and usually one apc depending on the elo is usually katarina or leblanc because since I usually adc I never trust my mid not to feed them. When I'm 1st pick the only time I ban for my lane is if I want to play kalista so I ban leona or braum.
Deep Terror Nami1 votesWhy ban Braum to play Kalista? You just keep stacking Rend until the shield goes away, so Unbreakable isn't really a huge problem. But you're a far better ADC than me so I'm sure there's a good reason somewhere.
argusroar1 votesIts not his shield, its his slow and stun. CC tanks are kalistas downfall.
arcinex1 votesIs it really a problem? You have the freedom to counter pick the enemy team and carry.
Dedrius1 votesYes but you are also potentially placed in the role you are least likely to carry with (for me it's jungle)

There are carry champions in the jungle. Try to pick up Sejuani. She has a game-changing ult and has good early ganks if needed.
Dedrius1 votesIts not that I do not think you can carry in the jungle, it is just that it is my worst role and the one i feel least comfortable in. Sejuani is also pretty much permabanned :p

Yeah I can understand. If I get put top lane it's GG. It's by far my worst role and I don't even have any viable top lane champions to begin with.
