Autofill was only implemented to help Diamond + players find ranked matches faster.
While I understand it helps Diamond + players, the other 98% of League'rs get stuck with the following:
Primary Jungle / Secondary top or mid ----- > autofilled Support .... Plays Jungle champion and takes smite.
See Picture.
Silly Neeko4 votesYou i guess were not around when the last person to pick almost always got support, they didnt even have a choice to suggest what they wanted. Poor people who can only play one or two roles though 
oh wait. Dont all the other roles tend to say that the support is trash, its the easiest role and they cant even do that right? I seem to feel 
joining in finally

I went through almost the entirety of season 3-5 getting mid almost every single game, because I'd politely ask in lobby. It was definitely more than 95% of the time.
With autofill, if I get a lane other than the one I want, I'm screwed.

Ive asked nicely for mid/top or whatever and tended to get support. With a big fat "its based on pick order. You get what you get." Personally im a support main anyways, but i do like playing some other lanes too.

Really? Every single time queue popped, it was like this
Me: Mid Me : Hi team
That's literally all I said and people didn't complain - the one or two times someone else wanted mid, they'd look up my op.gg and see I'm a 99.9999% mid player and give it to me anyway.
Maybe in like 5% of games someone insisted on taking mid and top and I'd support.

I was here before Dynamic Queue.
Since autofill I have had Supports: Zed / Yi / Wukong / Yasuo - the list goes on and on ... building absolutely no support item and taking CS from the adc the entire game.
Notice in my picture how that support somehow got 141CS. Where you think she got them? In lane, while the ADC suffered.

You dont care. You care that they didnt get their main role. Thats what you care about. This is obvious because your so excited to screen shot your conversation saying your forgiving them for taking smite in support role and taking cs and stuff from the adc.
What you show me is that not getting what you want so youll support anyone trolling to make it so you get your role you want.
Dont try playing this off as you being some kind of hero, saint, or whatever. Ive had those champions as supports and not have autofill even be a thing.
Good try though.

You must be some kind of we-todd-ed fool lol. Why would I look like a hero? The report function is nearly useless. How could I even have reported him? deciding to go any champion in the game as support is not reportable... He could have gone Yi support / taken 100% of the CS - It is not reportable per the TOS or EULA.
And I am not Jesus fucking Christ - I dont forgive people.
Not playing your role is not reportable. It is just a waste of the other 4 peoples time. I for 1 just dodge when I get autofilled. Log on to 1 of my other 4 accounts. Rinse and repeat. Or I troll just like he did and go whatever role I planned on playing prior to autofill.
I simply want this stupidity of autofill removed. If Diamond + players cant find a game, they should start mentoring plats / golds to help move them up in the ranks. Not implement a system that screws 98% of the community and benefits a mere 2%.
