"Hey guys,

Soon we will be launching a new way to select champions and join a match, which will replace the current team builder for normal games. The idea is that in a not too distant future it is also available for ranked matches.

Will still takes a while to arrive, but wanted to talk to you the main features:

  1. It all begins in the lobby where you can invite friends to play with you.

  2. In the second step you will indicate two roles in which you agree to play (mid / jg; top / sup etc ...). We did some studies and found that when the players provide two roles options, the match making works better. There will also be a new option called "Fill", for those who run into play in any position needed to fill a team.

  3. You will then be taken to the new champions and bans select. We made some major changes, so that all players have strategic importance in this process, not only the first player in the team.

  4. The game begins.

Our major concern here has been to minimize the chances of misunderstanding between players and improve match making time (including players with very high or very low MMR).

Soon we will have more news. Stay tuned!"

Some things that were said in the comments by rioters:

Q: Will I be able to choose only one role? A: No. You'll have to choose at least 2. This is critical so that the waiting time is not too great.... But as far as possible, the system will give priority to your first choice.

Q: Does the MMR will be really balanced? A: In the new system will take place some changes in the balance. Most of them should be implemented after the system is already running, but we are studying several possibilities.

Q: Probably this system will be tested in the pre-season and implemented next season, right? A: We have plans to begin testing soon, the official announcement will happen soon!

Q: What if i choose adc/sup and my duo choose sup/adc? A: The duo will have to choose at least 3 roles in the game. For exemple: Player A chooses ADC and SUP, and player B chooses SUP and JG. (a total of three positions were chosen ... ADC, SUP and JG).

I translated it myself and my english is not the best, so sorry for any mistake.

Yooo, folks.

Soon we will launch a new way of selecting champions and get a game, which will replace the current trainer teams for normal games. The idea is that in a not too distant future it is also available for ranked matches.

Still takes a while to arrive, but wanted to tell you the main features:

  1. all starts with entering the lobby where you can invite friends to play with you .

  2. In the second step you will indicate two positions in which stumbles play (mid / jg; top / sup etc ...). We did some studies and found that when the players provide two position options, the teaming works better. There will also be a new option called "complete", for those who run into play in any position needed to complete a team.

  3. You will then be taken to the new selection experience champions and bans. We made ​​some major changes, so that all players have strategic importance in this process, not only the first player in line.

  4. The game begins.

Our major concern here has been to minimize the chances of misunderstanding between players and improve staff training time (including players with very high or very low MMR).

Soon we will have more news. Stay tuned!

Edit: There you go.

Thanks for the translation! The only thing I can guess that might be different is the name for the role for those willing to go anywhere. In the current chat and in other discussions where Riot Lyte has talked about it, it has been referred to as "Fill" instead of "Complete". I'm not sure if they're looking to swap names to complete since that has a slightly more positive connotation, or if that was just a translation choice for Portuguese, or if it's a bad translation to English.
