You get one dodge per 16 hour.

This dodge

  1. Costs 3 whopping LP.
  2. Does not affect your MMR.
  3. Gets you a life long 5 min penalty.

Use it wisely.

^ Seriously underrated advice.

I generally like to profile search the first and second pick on my team to see how often they win on the champion they first/second picked. If they're both under 50% I'll usually dodge.

And how many times can you do that per 16 hour without take a big loss? Once.

And how many times will you run into people with under 50% win rate in a 16 hour window... probably more than twice.

You can't dodge every game based on your criteria.

Best case scenario is when people make champion pick mistakes, you encounter a troll, you get a role vs a champion you don't feel confident playing against.

Statistically it's about a 25% chance that both will have sub 50% winrates (0.5 * 0.5) and I don't play more than 4 games of ranked soloqueue in one sitting anyways.

I guess if you spend 3+ hours playing soloqueue ranked every day then I suppose you would need to relax your dodge restrictions slightly. I can't really bring myself to spend more than 2 hours on League without friends to play with.

Good for you!

Now for those who do play more, use this advice wisely in your 16 hour climb.
