Does the new champ select risk to be as flawed as the old one?

venerdì··1 votes·435 views

So in the good old days of ranked ladder, one would enter a ranked game and nobody wanted to support, people trolled picks, instalocked, said first and similiar shaneinegans. Then riot decided this could be no longer and introduced their new soloqueue draft pick system. And there was peace in the ladder.

Now the system would have been amazing, but sadly there is a general shortage of support mains so autofill was introduced, but with single lock picks you generally couldn't (and wouldn't) do much about it because you couldn't place players in jeopardy by holding their role hostage in the lasts seconds of their pick, trying to force them to get your role.

Now we have simultaneous picks back again, and the problem is coming back again.

You might say, but dude it's only because you are in low elo, but mostly everyone is in low elo so this issue is gonna affect like 80% of the playerbase.

Am i freaking out for nothing and there is something that you guys thought trough that i didnt get or?

I can't be the only one concerned with the stuff [sg-lux-2]

I thought maybe something changed in the past couple days so I just don't know about it yet, but it seems others are just as confused as i am. Please elaborate.

I think I understand. Let me try to clear that up:

They changed champion select with the recent patch.

Before it went like this.

Blue Team player 1 picks first. Red Team player 1 picks second. Red Team player 2 Picks third. Then blue team player 2 picks followed by blue team player 3.

Alright. So far so good.

Now they changed it in a way that Red team player 1 and 2 chose their champions at the same time. OP now is worried (for absolutely no friggin reason) that someone is going to abuse it when autofilled to pick a lane where he isn't supposed to go
