Solution to Insta-Lockers:
Make choosing a champion unavailable until 10 seconds AFTER everyone has joined the chat room. Once the 10 second timer is up, people can call their lanes. So many arguments in bronze over who joined chat room first, who called first,etc. It's getting on my bronze nerves.
Just another idea: vote on who called first. Don't like it as much but could still be plausible.
p.s: I know Riot is developing a system where you can queue up with people with pre-picked roles and you all meet up to fulfill each role. Can't wait for this change to the queues; it should be permanent and for all game types. Will make league much more enjoyable because I NEVER get mid. Either stuck in jungle or exhausting as support.
Another idea: make a system where every 5 times you play a role, the sixth time you must queue as support (excluding ranked queues). Or maybe force people to learn each role in some way, possibly implementing the same sort of idea.
