Dynamic Queue: Making it impossible to play your primary role if your secondary role is support

So, after looking at my match history, I recently realized that out of my last 35 ranked games, each of which I put jungle as my primary role and support as my secondary role, I was given jungle 5 times and support 30 times.

I get that if I don't want to play support, I should learn some other lanes, but it seems ridiculous to me that if I want to play more jungle, I need to get better at other lanes besides jungle. I enjoy playing support, and it's easily my second best lane, but I would MUCH rather play jungle, which just doesn't seem possible as long as I put support as my second option.

I'd really just like the chance to play more jungle in ranked without having to risk playing a lane I'm bad at...it just seems ridiculous that I was able to play MUCH more of my favorite lane in solo q by just saying "jung pref, supp second" in every match than in dynamic queue.

Meanwhile I'm queuing as primary support, secondary jungle. Not one single jungle game yet. Fine by me, but this is still ridiculous.

This to me is the major drawback to the new system. I don't mind DQ, but the new champ select is where I have the problems. Personally I'm a support main, but it was always nice getting to play something else every now and then. With the new system I feel like I'm only going to hurt the teams I'm on if I don't que up as my top 2 roles and just bite the bullet.

The thing DQ was set to fix, being reducing fighting in champ select, has created another problem. Because people want to try and get their role bad enough the will put mid/adc as their secondary role which inflates those pools with people that don't want the role, but chose it to increase chances of getting their primary. This is just a major headache that has been created for the normal player which is one I'd rather trade in for the old issues of solo que.
