Since we have role selection, can we stop being punished for dodging?

I want to know the reason Riot punishes us for dodging. If I am in ranked Que and I see a potential troll on my team. I don't want to play with him, why do I get punished for this? If I am in que and someone auto locks a champion and instantly begins flaming. I DONT WANT TO PLAY WITH HIM. But instead of Riot punishing the people who make us want to dodge. They punish us...... WHY. What did I do? And how does people dodging que really affect the game? Except that you have now prevented a possible toxic and rage filled game from happening. If anything, we should be rewarded for this.

Especially now, when we have role selection and this part of game is relatively calm

Why ban a champ when you can just dodge if they’re chosen?

Because if they didn't no one would ever get into game?

Someone picked Yasuo? Dodge.

1st pick? Dodge.

Akali got past ban phase? Dodge.

I had a disagreement with someone? Dodge.

Cos your dodge has wasted 5 minutes of my time. Apply that to 9 other people.

If there was no dodge penalty, I would never get into a game cos everyone would just dodge when there is something within champ select that someone doesn't agree with.

because autofill exists.

'we could make you wait 5 minutes for a support, or we could wait 1 minute and force you to play support. one of these is obviously better than the other...'
