Would it be possible to give extra rewards to needed roles in Team Builder? Like an extra IP bonus for playing support or tank jungle. Nothing major just something as simple as 30 extra IP a game. So as not to throw the whole system out of sync.

Purpose 1: To test out new builds/things
Purpose 2: To play the role you want to play

I don't think it's that simple though. For purpose 1, your ability to do that kind of depends on the team lead. If they don't like your experimental build you might be sitting there getting rejected until you land a group that doesn't care about your non-standard setup. And for purpose 2, Nightingale's whole point is that if people are only playing the roles they want to play the most, you can very frequently end up with wait times that cause everyone to keep dropping out of the team until you finally get that one support (or whatever) that you've been waiting on for the last fifteen minutes. Except then you'll also have to wait for the other two people that just dropped out in the meantime.
Personally I think it would be nice if some kind of incentive was added for the most unfilled role that would swap as the need arises for other positions to be filled. It would help reduce wait time and purposes 1 and 2 aren't negated in any way. A small IP bonus wouldn't force you to use the TB any differently than you do now. It should just make the process a bit less drawn out.
Just my two cents, anyway.

Thank you for understanding. That is my point just something small to get people to fill the roles. I am not trying to take away from other roles or whatever you may want to try in lane. The whole point of TB is to break the meta so to speak. Just wait times are killer, just like you said.
