This guy had picked Disco Blitzcrank top 4 times making the enemy team dodge all 4 times yet he still had no punishment then he was on our team and picked disco alistar forcing one of us to dodge. He's still out there making people dodge and there's nothing we can do about it.

Here's a hint: if your games get dodged 3 times in a row, and you don't know why, take a 5 minute break before queueing up again. Same thing goes if there is a troll on your team.

This doesn't solve the fact he still trolls other people.

Daedalus87120 votes

It doesn't, but it solves your problem of him being in your game.

Except the frustration point isn't so much that they show up in a game, like you said you can wait if you've been in lobby w/ it and avoid it, and if it's a random game of your first que up, then you can dodge bc 3 LP isn't really much of a punishment. The frustration is that there is no way they get punished unless you screen shot and then send support ticket in for the report and there's no confirmation or evidence that even that does anything.

It is someone who is abusing a gap in the punishment system to behave in a way that would not be tolerated in any game and would quickly be punished, but because of doing it in champ select they are generally given a free pass bc probably 90-99% of people don't to have to send a support ticket to riot just to report someone.

Thanks but I know this already and this still doesn't actually help to remove the trolls because they'll be in another queue just not with you and that's my issue. There should be a way to stop them from champ select.

Suggestions that would be hard to abuse?

Or they could rework the system so that only that player is returned to queue and 30 seconds is added to find a replacement.

So I pick Quinn adc because she my best. My team thinks I'm trolling, so I get kicked because they want that OP Vayne they know is coming. So I requeue. And the cycle repeats itself.

King Odin8 votes

That sounds pretty unlikely. Since when is Quinn adc troll and I doubt 4 people would be dumb enough to kick someone for Quinn adc. People are people and there is no system can that can prevent people from abusing it in someway.

Daedalus8712 votes

Sure, Zilean sup, Brand mid, or Twitch adc may not be troll, but I would rather have someone else on my team.

So while I might not start a kick vote, there is a good chance I would vote yes if I had a shit team comp.

King Odin1 votes

1 kick per champ select. It's that easy.

Daedalus8712 votes

Troll wastes the kick on good teammate. Troll then trolls.

That's not too much trouble for the trolls.

Last pick coming up. Enemy comp is way better than ours. Starts kick vote. "Guys, their comp is better, vote yes."

Divine Hymn1 votes

Vote kick. Required 3-2. That way a duo could neither prevent a vote from passing (if the troll was part of the duo) or force kick someone random if the duo were ganging up on someone for no reason. If the majority of the team thinks that person should be kicked, they probably should.

RikoZerame

And how common do you think that would be compared to people actively trolling an entire game? Do you think the people dumb enough to kick an abnormal but perfectly fitting pick are more common or more destructive than the people dumb enough to get kicks out of ruining 40+ minutes of four people's days?

Also, copy-pasting your single example without addressing the above isn't helping your case much. It just makes you look hard-headed.

Daedalus8712 votes

I didn't write a new reply because he did not require a new reply.

And I do think that people getting kicked for perfectly fine, but "weak" or non-meta picks would become an issue.

Shosuko1 votes

In my experience - most people are just fine with reasonable picks, and would not vtk because you're not vayne adc.

Divine Hymn2 votes

The thing is, if your team is so unnaccepting over a non meta pick that the majority would kick you for it, maybe you're better off not playing with them. If they're going into the game already on tilt from "wtf Quinn ADC GG" mindset, the odds of you winning are already poor. I'd rather get a new chance with a more open minded team than be obligated to play with people flaming me just because I picked something unusual that I happen good at.

Did you not read the title of the thread? It's literally the suggestion.

"Here's Why We Need To Be Able To Report Someone In Champ Select"

He's asking for reporting to be available in champ select. So instead of dodging and moving on, he can report, dodge, and move on. And after several rounds of a Disco Nunu getting reported 4x in champ select, it can be removed from the player pool.

There isn't a suggestion that would be hard to "abuse"...but given the fact that there is no penalty and only satisfaction for someone trolling in champ select, I would say the current system is easier to "abuse" than any other system riot could implement.

I DO THIS ALOT

Karn Bishop1 votes

Did that once, the troll also took a 5 minute break after doing it twice to try to catch his original victims again, he succeeded.

Daedalus8714 votes

That's why you wait 3 times.

Three shalt be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once at the number three, being the third number to be reached, then, wait.

He hasn't done anything wrong. If he did, don't you think Riot's report system would pick it up? To think that you'd accuse Riot of making some kind of a mistake. How dare you? Don't you know how great Riot is? They've done so much for us! That juggernaut rework for example. Sure, nobody wanted it and we all hate how it turned out and asked for it to be reverted/nerfed and, yes, they haven't done it yet, but they tried! And sure there have been multiple issues that could be solved by spending money that Riot has an abundance of but isn't it enough that their game is free with a system that makes it hard to buy the essential runes and pages and champions and they pull in thousands every day and even more when they have ads during lcs? Maybe you should rethink your lives and realize this brave person is just changing the meta, which is following the example Riot is trying to set by changing champions and items to force a new meta onto us, because they know what's better than we do!

I forgive you, sir. And to Angus: Get a job. At Riot. And be the annoying ass Rioter that replies to every post with completely useless information

e.g.

Angry Player: "Revert mordekaiser rework pls!"

You: "Mordekaiser has 11 letters in it."

BAM You aren't free anymore - you're welcome.

Upvoting this. Just had to dodge a game were a guy instalocks troll pick and says he's going to feed the enemy team because our first pick accidentally banned his main. He never mentioned once who his main was.

  1. take screenshots like you did.

  2. dodge and eat the 3 LP (so much better than the 15-30 LPyou'd be losing otherwise)

  3. make a support request, submitting the screenshots there.

  4. be glad and happy you did not lose any mmr/elo

5)wait out your dodge timer and then play without the annoying troll!

King Odin5 votes

Thanks I did this already but isn't about me this is about the fact that he can effectively waste hours of time without immediate repercussions. Sure I got to avoid him but he's somewhere else in another queue doing the same thing and that's just unacceptable.

Shrapnel Shrap8 votes

But if I'm in my promos and no one else will dodge...

then dodge the promos. your rank is just a faceplate. the important thing is your mmr/elo, not the storefont that is your rank.

EL HAMSTERO2 votes

very few people understand this. if you want to rank up fast, protecting your mmr is much more important than a few LP or a lost promos.

Shrapnel Shrap2 votes

Fair enough, I really need to do this more next season... So much MMR I could of saved...

Karn Bishop2 votes

Whenever i do this i get told to use the report feature at the end of the game and to have a good day :/

Riot should make a Dodge in champ select just like the surrender in game, if most of the team agrees on dodging no one would lose LP or the dodge timer

problem is that you could just dodge if you dont like the matchup with no repercussions

Jingerbeardman3 votes

doesnt work so easily, not every person is going to like being forced into a role just because they got subbed into a select in progress. And how would the problem person be removed in the first place, if it is by general vote... that will never work.

King Odin2 votes

It would work very easily. It'll be similar to team builder and when someone is subbed out they're simply replaced with someone wanting the same role. Also it'd work the same way surrender vote works :)

Enforces the meta, so Riot wont do it. And I dont think they should :/
