New Summoner Spell Mechanic
For a jungler, like myself, forgetting to change summoner spells to smite can be the stuff of nightmares and make the game almost unplayable, and putting your team at a huge disadvantage. So I had a few ideas for some solutions.
-
You could have a large box appear when you reach the ten second mark in champion select, that would say something like "Did you mean to take smite?"
-
You could allow people to change their summoner spell in game before they leave base when they check the shop. There would be a box at the top saying "Did you mean to take (insert summoner spells used in each roll)?" And to balance this it would send a large message in chat saying that you changed your summoner spell.
-
You could make after you lock in your champion, make it required to click a check mark or something next to your runes/masteries in champ select before the loadout time ends, or else it won't connect you until you do. This way you wouldn't have to remake the whole champion select and you have time before hand. And because some people have the screen minimized you could have the screen pop up on them like you do when it's their turn to select a champion or ban.
I personally think that number 3 is the most possible out of these and I hope that you guys will consider it, or tell me why you couldn't do this.
