Can you make a team builder for ranked games? Instead of choosing champs,lane,and role you just choose lane and role. This would stop a lot of in team fighting and more people would enjoy ranked games

I too would like having something like this. I think Riot at one point said it was something they would look at (Team Builder for other modes), but it will need adjustments for each other thing they create it for. Right now I think they want to learn how it performs in normal. That way they can correct problems and identify if there are adjustments needed to make sure it does not skew the rankings.

In ranked you have to be more careful about how pairings are made between teams, and adding the need to make pairings between players adds significantly to the complexity. They need some time on the normal Team Builder to help predict what they need before adding another one somewhere else. Add in that you would further split the pool of players, thus lengthening queue times, so... I'm happy to let Riot take there time on this.

I want this so bad. One of the biggest things that keep me away from ranked games. I don't wanna argue for position or be forced to play something I'm not good at.

They're working on it - the following quote is from a Reddit post by Lyte from four days ago:

We're figuring out things like Ranked Team Builder first and how it'd work with just role selection.

And a follow-up:

It'll be role selection only, with a "Fill" role as well.
