Just one more idea of a mode for the Howlling Abyss...

That probably would need extra features: something like when picking this mode to play before going to queue you pick 1 champ you want to ban, 5 you'd like to play (ordered by #1 as "want to play this one more" to #5 "this one is ok too") then go to queue. In the first 30 seconds of pre match lobby champions are given to players by the order above, if 2 or more players want to play the same champion the system will random pick a player among those that have the same champ and same order of preference to stay with it, same thing happens with all other champs. If you have no champion to play with because of bans, you then choose 2 or 3 more still in order of preference. Till this point we cant see each other champions. When the final 30 seconds begins these champions are given to players that didn't get one in first half and player champions revealed (for team only, not the enemy), the trade button then appears.

Since a 5 man pre made would combine picks put them in a queue that only plays against other 5 man pre made teams. This idea is just because I play LoL since S2, but last time I played SR was first week of season 3 I think ( or something like that, I dont really remember but Iplayed an One for All a few weeks ago after all these years if that counts, but hated it), and we had Dominion that I enjoyed a lot, I could play the champions I wanted there and was fun, but since its removal I can only play ARAM, but sometimes I really would like to play a couple of champions more but it's just impossible as it's all random obviously. I know this idea has 0 chances of going ahead ^_^ I'm probably part of a very small minority of LoL players but still wanted to show it anyway. Thanks for reading.
