Dodging ---> a new system.

Lets say all summoners get 2 dodges per day, with MINOR or NO LP loss... You dodge, you select a summoner, and you select a reason why you dodged. After 10 reports on a single person in one day by numerous different summoners, they should receive a ranked ban for however long preferably no shorter than 3 hours. Just a thought from a summoner who is tired of being troll picked. it's frustrating knowing which games you're going to lose before you even play. this would prevent many problems along the lines of not cooperating, troll picks, and toxicity. I hope this message reaches the right eyes!

Death to all troll picking

I'm on the opposite side of the spectrum. I think dodging should be removed. Once you accept your match you should go into the game like in Dota 2. You should then pick your champions, leaving doesn't destroy the game. This would make more people actually care about champion select.

And how do you determine what are legitimate reports or not? If someone likes to play anti-meta picks (which isn't trolling, it's simply fringe and not as frequent) they are often lumped in with trolls. Personally, I feel that while this idea makes it more difficult to abuse, there is still potential for wrongful dodges and false reporting based off of a few situations. There are the instances of someone dodging because of standard dodge reasons such as a losing team comp and then just picking someone to report so they can save LP. There are the situations where someone doesn't get the role they desire so they'll use their dodge and then report whoever got their role wrongfully. And then the situations of dodging because you get something that is off meta in your game and then wrongfully reporting that person as a troll.

I'd also require a review of the reports/reasons before any bans are implemented. People's main complaint with dodging is the automatic institution of a penalty and the same with LeaverBuster, so how is it a good solution to institute another form of automatic penalty? Just seems a bit counter-intuitive to me. As far as ideas for handling the dodging situation, this is one of the better ones, but I still feel it needs to have a few problem areas addressed and have some fine tuning on details before it could be considered as a legitimate resolution.

No matter what tier you are, whether Bronze or Diamond, there will always be a troll somewhere. You may not see trolls all the time, but they are there. Including this system can only help so much. Let's say you dodged twice already, but then you get a troll once again. What can you do? Either play or dodge (Having the risk of losing more LP than losing). It is better to try and play than to dodge.

I completely back this up 100%, there have been so many times I get into a ranked queue, and lo and behold top pick is a troll that doesn't ban anyone and picks a troll pick. This would be a great benefit to people who are actually trying to rank up and get out of troll/elo hell.

Plz. Riot can you do something about ARAM dodgers. More than three tries to play every game one day last week drove me to the point that I had to comment. Really; Boo Hoo some yahoo summoners didn't get their fav champ and they've burnt their rerolls and the are too much of a --BLEEP-- to man up and play an unfamilier champ so they dodge and make the rest of us try again. AaarrghRAM dodging is pissing people off. Thank you for your time.DrMundo
