Team Getting Autofilled to support and have no Idea how to play

Kalistas··4 votes·713 views

My supports keep getting auto filled to support and they don't even know how to play, so then is leading to them feeding and then I also start dying more than I usually do. Please take out the autofill or fix it, its getting a bit annoying getting non-support players playing support (because they don't how to)

Lol, if they get rid of it you will have 30 minute wait times.

I wouldn't mind that, as long as I get someone that knows how to play support :^)

But you wouldn't. You'd just get someone who didn't want to wait so long so they queue and play "support".

You misunderstand. I'm saying there would not be a real support on your team anyway. It would just be some guy who didn't want to wait so long so they pick support for quick queue times and don't play like a support at all.

Even if you get someone who didn't want to wait and put fill, you're still getting someone who knew going in that they would probably end up playing support, and not somebody who thought they would be top or mid or jungle and has no understanding whatsoever of how a duo lane should be played.

I agree, getting stuck with someone who has zero interest in playing support does not make the game better in any way. I'd rather wait another 5-10 minutes to play instead of wasting 20-50 minutes in a bad game that never should have happened.

Maybe allow people to choose an autofill timer, so you pick your main roles, but agree that if the queue time is longer than x minutes you'll accept an auto filled position.

And I don't mean if average queues are 20 minutes long - auto fill instantly - I mean if your auto fill timer is set to 15 minutes, and you get into a game in less than that, it should be one of your main roles.

also for matchmaking purposes it's probably best to match auto fills, don't put an auto fill support up against a support main, I've seen it happen, and it's ugly.
