Just had a game where somebody wanted a role they didnt get, and banned the champ I was highlighting because I had that role. I dodged because I don't feel like dealing with somebody like that but it sucks that this can still happen.
Magical Player1 votesRiot can't fix people, sorry
Any idea how you would fix this issue. without adding a voting system to the pregame lobby?
Paesano1 votesI agree, but I would suggest being able to report players in champion select. It would hopefully deter some of this.
Magical Player1 votesAgain without adding a voting system to the pregame lobby anything like that would just be abused
TrulyBland1 votesIt's more likely that it would just deter people from openly stating their intentions (which is the only way I can see to make it punishable).

dont need a voting system even, just literally a flag next to ta player that submits the chat log and champs picked/banned
that is, if i actually thought riot would look at them... but it would be a step in the right direction
Shifue Draven1 votesThat is why i never highlight my champ to avoid this crap or highlight something you would not use.
Jo0o1 votesWhich is fine, except highlighting a champ holds value. It helps communicate your plan in order to build a better team comp.
The fact that the current situation actively discourages using a potentially helpful tool is troubling.
Shifue Draven1 votesTrue but the problem is kids like that. I hate it as well but i really don't know any other way around it. i have begged them to change the punishment as i am tired of the same thing. which has cost me more then my fair share of LP cause of troll players but all i know to do :(
Sarutobi1 votesWell they werent technically holding the game hostage were they? No one forced you to leave, you left because someone ban your champ you wanted to play. Now dont get me wrong that kind of a dick move, but at the same time thats not reportable. If they were acting how you claim they were, you leaving just made them get away with it. You should have just played a different champion (this game has more than 130 champion, there is no way you only know how to play one champion) and then report them after the game.
As for a reporting option in Champ Select. I believe it would be abused. Especially in Ranked matches, people would use it as a free dodge if they see that their team isnt as strong as the enemies. Or like in the case of yours People using it to get a free dodge because their champion gets ban (intentional or not). Just think how long getting into a game would be if something like this is implemented! Case in point the new champion Zoe coming out in a couple of weeks. Im sure a lot of people will be queuing up for Mid just to try and play her but im sure most people will ban her right on the spot, not only because she is new, but also because they dont want people messing up their games because they want to try out a new champion.
How can we fix this problem without also making it easy to abuse? Thats the main deal right now!
Danni Chimes1 votesYea...honestly there will never not be a time when this won't be able to happen. (Like all of those negatives in there lol) Much like people will always lie. And cheat, etc. Some things are inherent to existence, this hostage holding is one of them. For the record usually always have 2 champs you're willing to play and maybe even a 3rd in the off chance the enemy team also bans one.
