Being kept hostage in champion select is a real problem.

This is just stupid. I don't know what do people get out of it but some of the POS beings will either demand a role even though they didn't get it, pick a champ that someone else was going to pick or ban a player's champ.

The only solution to this is dodging. Better to lose 3 LP rather than 20.But I have question, why do I have to compromise? Why should I have to dodge or risk losing 20 LP when the a-hole who was demanding stuffs for his pampered a** , gets away scot free? You could be in the best mood when you start the game but this will completely ruin it. Sometimes when they ban their champ, they refuse to apologize. Either they insult the person whose champ they banned or say something BS like learn to play a skilled champ or learn to git gud.

Please do something about this. This starting to become annoying as there are no repercussions. They know Riot won't do anything since the game hasn't started. However it ends, the loser is the one who is forced to dodge or the 4 players who have to deal with this s**t

There needs to be a report in champ select ability. Pregame chat and behavior really needs to be looked at because this is quite problematic. It starts off the game on the wrong foot because they've already started being toxic from the first second they joined their team.

1- People trade their slot to them which reinforces their bad behavior. 2- They lose LP if no one trades with them, so they're even more likely to dodge than you are. 3- Every time one of their allies dodges, that includes you, they get another free dodge. Their dodges are a lot more limited than you'd think. 4- Because dodges are as limited as they are, many people that play ranked use smurfs so they can keep on playing during the dodge penalties. 5- If you don't want them dodging more, don't give them free dodges. 6- With the rune rework coming, unless Riot does something else about dodging, it will become much more of a problem than it is now. 7- Smurf accounts will have access to all runes without any IP grinding needed at all. 8- Low Rune Page accounts will be even more likely to demand a certain slot since they can't even autofill realistically with that small of a rune page count.

Why don't just start monitoring lobby chat, explicitly state that this behavior is not allowed and punishable and allow us to report players in lobby? No need for a safe dodging system, there wouldn't be as many trolls if they knew they can't get away with it

There should be a disband vote. If 4 out of the 5 players agree that one person is being a complete fucknugget, it shlould penalize the voted out player and a new lobby would start.

Because there is not yet anyone suggesting a valid system that would be 99.99% unabusable that would permit this “free dodge” type thing.

If they are toxic in chat (such as threatening to troll/afk/etc, cursing at you, etc) then you can screenshot and send a support ticket and they’ll punish for toxic chat. But until someone comes up with a good idea for a system that couldn’t be abused, then they can’t implement the system that hasn’t been described.

Do not trade with them period. If they troll in game then report them after. Whatever you do don't give in to them.
