Give us a lobby report button or a free dodge every x games.

Just had to dodge a game where the jungler insta banned our mid's pick and then locked in veigar jungle. Probably got filled and didn't want to play jungle. This kind of behaviour should be able to be reported, but there's really no good way to unless you stay in the troll game and take the full LP loss. I think you should:

Add a lobby report system where if say 3/5 people report a player for trolling before the game starts, the match is aborted and that player can't play for 30 minutes or something.

or -

Give one free dodge every x games (maybe x =4-5?, or based on on your honor level? Honor level 2, x = 6, honor level zero, x = 10?)

Anywhoe, tired of giving up my lps to trolls.

Unfortunately both of those systems would be abused incredibly hard. My suggestion is to take screenshots and submit a support ticket whenever stuff like this happens. An in lobby report system would be nice, but a voting system where someone can be kicked and not be able to queue up due to other players votes is not a great idea. How fast do you think the first guy who played Soraka top woulda been kicked?

That's fair, that's why I offered the second suggestion of a free dodge every x amount of games.

No. You do not get to decide what your teammates play, and this would have the effect of "forcing" people to not play what they want because people like you would abuse your "free dodge(s)" to put them back in queue.

lol ive read so many of your comments and every single one you take the trolls side a dodge every (X) amount of games would be incredible you wanna play off meta picks taric top nid mid thats fine go for it but not at the expense of my game their enjoyment is not worth more than mine this feature would be so good and its not abusing the free dodge if you are using it to dodge the game you dont want to play, IF XXXXXX player wants to debut the yuumi jungle i should absolutely be able to dodge that game at no cost to me you are insane to suggest otherwise

That IS abusing the free dodge - you are using it to force your teammates to abide by your wishes. You are the exact type of player that is the reason we will never get any sort of "free dodge".

bro i know i dont use punctuation but can you actually read? it is not abusing the free dodge if you are using it to dodge a game you dont want to play they can reque no big deal if i wanna wait longer so i dont have the yummi jungle thats on me and if no one wants to play with the guy who mains yuumi jungle well i say that makes for a better community without that player

If you are using it to control what other people play, that is abuse. If you are using it to force others to have longer queue times just so you don't have to play with them, that is abuse. If you're using it because you put your desire/fun above that of other players, that's abuse.

It isn't you waiting longer - it's the other 9 people as well. You are forcing the other 9 people to wait longer for games, and you're in particular forcing the player who wants to play something you don't like to wait much longer to play a game, which is indirectly punishing that player for their choice of champion. That is not acceptable, period.

You're hilarious talking about "makes for a better community" when you yourself have the sort of toxic selfish attitude that needs removed from the community.

im not saying at all you cant play the champ tho never once even hinted at wanting to control what they pick they can pick whatever champ they want to play i have no control over that however i should have control what champs THAT I play with this system would allow for that in a very non toxic way also as a sidenote you are exactly whats wrong with the community saying that i am the one making people wait longer? yet you say nothing of the behavior of a jungle yuumi player holding his 4 teammates hostage in a game where the other team pads some stats do a poll i bet overwhelming majority of people would rather wait the 30 seconds extra for a que to pop over losing LP again you are the problem not me oh and if you look far enough back on the boards youll see riot lines up with my thinking there was a support nunu player running smite he was WINNING GAMES ALOT however the playstyle he was using was so unfun and reported so much by the adcs he played with he got banned

You have said both of those things:

but not at the expense of my game their enjoyment is not worth more than mine

You saying they can't play the champ they want.

IF XXXXXX player wants to debut the yuumi jungle i should absolutely be able to dodge that

You saying you want to control what they pick.

You don't get to control your teammates. You are not the boss, you are not their superior. You are a teammate. You don't get to control them or decide what they play.

do a poll i bet overwhelming majority of people would rather wait the 30 seconds extra for a que to pop over losing LP

Funny, because the current rules are based on what an overwhelming majority of players want - which is not to let others force them what to play.

wrong again xD they can play those champs all they want how can i stop them? tell me exactly how i am physically preventing them from locking in their specific champ? the only thing i can control is myself as far as im aware maybe i do have some superpowers idk about but im off topic i should not be held hostage in a game where a teammate is picking a yuumi jungle OR WHATEVER champ i dont want to play with having a free dodge to allow that is not abuse by any stretch of the imagination they can reque same as me and correct me if im wrong the OP was suggesting a new system be implemented i was expressing favor for a system like this you know as a player the point you are seriously missing is im not stopping them from playing w.e champ im just controlling what champs _i dont play with _

I am new to League and Im still not level 30 and coming from the Dota community, I have noticed this same thing several times. You join a game and someone is in a bad mood from their previous game or has whatever biased opinion about X champ in X role, which immediately for the instigator creates an immediate negative environment for all the players. I dont even own 20 champions yet and I get autofilled support and have to play Lux its all I had a the time and the player bans my champion and its like why does behavior like this go unchecked. I was then forced to play an non support champion because the draft had banned morgana, lux and leona. So now not only did I get my only champ banned (purposely because the other player didnt agree with me picking lux despite it being my only champ) I also got flamed for the entire 30 minutes everytime I die or make a bad play. I dont understand why League of Legends is like this. Back to the main topic. I do agree and sympathize that a pregame vote system would be great but it would be really hard to justify the how and whys. Especially in a scenario like the game I explained, the guy never said a word in chat, but stood in bot lane, farmed the adc cs, and spam pinged my death timer everytime I died. But I get the finger pointed at me at the end of the day because I went 1/10 on a champ I never played before. I have started just dodging games anyhow when I go into a lobby and someone is acting a fool it stinks I have to wait but it is what it is. If you have better emphasis on how the vote system might work lets hear. I think it would be cool but yet hard to manage.

a free dodge every 25 games would be nice. not farmable (meaning if you play 100 games without ever dodging, you still only get 1 free dodge)

oh look. another joke post marks off bingo card now to go find a topic that makes fun of the mods.

KrokyFeb 26, 20201 votes

honestly i just had the same... dude didnt want to play bot so bannned my champ and picked shaco with smite. i had to dodge cuz i rather wait 15mins than lose 20 or so lp ... maybe riot could implement lp loss prevention systems when you get a troll/ rude player that didnt feel like following the rules. some vote system. or whatvever.

edit: not penalizing the infractor... what a reward.

GrokmirFeb 26, 20201 votes

Honestly dodging should just not be punished beyond a 1-2 minute timer before they can queue again.

Honestly, nooo I have enough dodgers in my games. Heck with dodgers it took me over 6 minutes to get into a game.

Tele IIFeb 28, 20201 votes

Idk. I remember somewhat recently the trend on the boards was "too many people dodging i gotta go through 20 minutes of lobbies before i get an actual game". Just hard to find a balance im sure. Idk what could be done other than people themselves changing their ways. Obviously idea 1 is too abuseable. Idea 2 just increases the amount of dodging. Sucks.
