@RiotSupport hey so im gonna play ranked right? And I always put mid as my PRIMARY and bot as my secondary but for some reason I can never get mid (this goes for when I put top as primary and support as secondary but end up always getting support) its like im forced to play the secondary thing I pick and its like why cant I ever play as my PRIMARY? What was the point of that? Now, playing as secondary typically ends up in more losses than wins and its frustrating. Yes, because people will put something they dont want to do as secondary just because "you have to cover a wider variety of the map". I play w two people but we dont like certain roles and its not like oh you have to learn everything. We do but youre always going to be best at something! I like new changes especially where you can now play w more than one person in ranked but can there be any way where were can just go into game only picking one certain role please? Dont you guys agree? Im sure there will be four other people desiring to play the opposite roles of which you picked forming a team. Its that simple! So, please hear me out and listen. Can there be any change like that? Something like team builder again (I dont get why that was removed in the first place > It was PERFECT)! What do you guys think?

This isn't that bad for me because Im top & Jung so either way Im getting the top half of the map.

But yeah I get this alot I prim -Top and sec -Jung, always get jung but now that means im getting more rounded.

I think that's one of the funniest things I've read all day. Team Builder was one step removed from being completely worthless, which is why it didn't catch on and couldn't beat out blind pick. You couldn't change your champion to fit what your Team needed (ironic, isn't it? It's also why it had such a hard time finding supports), there was no fill option, people would randomly leave your lobby for no reason, etc.

And yet, you have no ranked games... how could you always get Bot in ranked if you're not playing ranked?

For reference, I also queue Mid/Bot, with two friends who queue Jung/Support and Support/Bot. I've gotten Mid 11/16 times, which works out to 68.75%. That's higher than the statistical average of getting your role was before the new champion select (about 64%), but you know the best part? The best part is that I'm getting my secondary role 100% of the time that I don't get my primary. I don't have to worry about getting my worst or second worst position at all any more.

People still randomly leave anyway... They wait until the last second to dodge. This also happens to friends (they can't ever get their lane). Also, notice how I said "GOING TO" not that I already did :) I am familiar with the system and how it works. I enjoyed team builder better and so did my friends. Support dragged, but at least you got someone that actually wanted to support and didn't just have it as secondary because they didn't know what to put. With the team comp, you could play with like 1-2 other people and make one. However, in the new queue, you can't always ensure that you and 1-2 other people will get your lane and champion.

Also, I like the queue, but if only Riot made it similar to team builder in which you get the lane you choose, but you don't pick your champion yet. Then you can still do the bans and still make a team comp
