Queues and Ranked

Hello,

For a while now I have been thinking about the unfair way we are put in a position that we do not like regarding queues and playstyle. You see, if we get into the chat pre-game it's up to us to decide who will play what role but it is very unfair when 2 people want to play top and only 1 gets to because he called first or has an earlier pick. So I decided to investigate other games and see what reasonable solution could there be to this issue.

What I came up with is that the system implemented in World of Warcraft is a perfect match to what we need in League of Legends. LFG interface in WoW lets you choose the role you want to play BEFORE you are paired with a team, making it a seamless experience when you go into an instance because you talk about strategy and don't focus on arguing who gets to play what. I am sure LoL developers might think that the current system is fair because everyone gets to be last, first or mid pick as many times statistically, but it's still a little bit away from completely fair.

I hope this message will get to them, if not please help me out to make a petition for this feature because lets face it Teamwork OP, arguing since pre-game just loses matches.

Thanks for reading,

Raz

Ooooh, I think i get it. So you want to put in your preferred position before the game and get matched with people who want all the other positions. So your saying if I put in mid, I would get matched with someone who wants top, someone who wants jungle and so on. But what will happen if 80% of the players want solo top and not enough games are open for those people? And what if people change their mind or decide to troll and pick support, but auto-lock top? I've also been thinking about this problem but I think it would be best if Riot just left it alone =/.
