People Instalocking

This is a rant, If you are easily offended, I suggest exiting. Do note that this is normals. So my last game, I had two people instalocking and then feeding. I just wanted to ask : why do people do this? I mean, the top laner instalocked and fed, but he didn't blame the entire team, so i'm kinda cool. The jungler, however instalocked and fed, and he fed. He yelled at all of us, claimed that we always stole kills from him (even though he was already dead, and he was the most toxic player I've ever seen. This game brought me to think : There has to be a way to make people stop instalocking. Can you guys think of a way to stop people from instalocking? Maybe tell Riot about?

Instalocking isn't necessarily against the rules; however, it is an unwritten rule that you respect first call. Regardless, if you'd like to get a role that you'd like, Draft Pick might be what you're looking for. Otherwise, participating in a 5-man premade can do the trick. When you go into a Blind Pick environment, you'll have people who respect the first call, but there may be times where someone REALLY wants to play a certain role. In these cases, you just have to play around them. If things become negative or toxic, then that's something that you can report on, but until then, it's just respect for the unwritten "first call" rule.

People could also be playing normals just to play a certain champion. The whole point of them playing the normal game was to play the champion, otherwise they might just play Ranked. Hence they instalock. If it really offends you then you can always dodge or if it doesn't then play around it.
