There needs to be a Report Button in the TBD Lobby

Possibly in any of the lobbies. I know people have said things like this before, but i figure if enough people complain Riot will have to do something right?? I love the Team Builder Draft even with its flaws (jesus fuck i'm Bronze 2 why is the wait time so long XD), and its done a lot to help my ranked anxiety knowing i can queue up with only roles i really feel comfortable with. (And when the Blind version is put in place I can go back to practicing my very unimpressive jungle skills) But goddamnit the trolls are out in force right now and I cannot stand it.

I just had to dodge a match because some dick queued up as jungle, then suddenly decided he wanted to be mid. So he banned my Ahri and picked Xerath. I haven't logged back in yet, but if I get in trouble for this I'm going to be seriously pissed. For clarity- I had serious connection issues in the last week, and I just got out of Low Priority Queue. I'm not entirely sure how it works cause i've never had to dodge before, but if i get sent back in on this shit, I'm probably done with league for this week (which i know isn't a big deal, but its awful to me) because i'm seriously tired of it. This is the first season I've been serious about ranked and bullshit like this is precisely why everyone was is so skeptical of the TBD in the first place (even though i was personally really optimistic). I need some kind of way to make sure they get punished without having to sit through a game with them, and preferably without getting punished myself.

I think it'd be really easy to put a disband vote in the lobby, and then if the team agrees, they get the same report options to explain why they disbanded. And it can still be investigated so that nobody has this used against them who doesn't deserve it. The only downside would possibly be a further increase in wait times, but I figure those will probably settle out in the next weeks or so, and I cant imagine anyone but the trolls themselves wouldn't appreciate it.

*also: If you're a troll: Who fuckin hurt you dude/dudette???

Lyte actually mentioned recently they might consider adding in an option to report during champ select.

"If there are remaining issues after the new Champ Select goes out, we are considering allowing players to report players in Champ Select, which should solve the remaining problems."

I can't find an additional source on that but it was mentioned at a different point they'd be working on that early in the year after the new champ select is fully ironed out if they go down that path.
