which one do you go by? lane calling can be annoying when you have 2nd pick and last pick calls mid and you go mid and then last pick whines and complains and then dodges. Pick order can be annoying when your last pick and you want a lane that somebody already took. so what do you prefer lane calling or pick order? personally im pick order

Pick order.

Unless the first pick feels like first-timing Ryze and our last pick plays nothing but mid.

Which is usually the case, btw.

Pick order > Lane Calling
although I look at lane calling as way of saying, "I'm better at this role", not You say you want it and always will get it.

In blind pick its call order if its bans you go by assignment order.

If it's ranked, it's pick order, if it's anything else, I don't know because normals are the worst gaming experience I've ever had to participate in.

I cant stand it when people first pick mid or top. It's like asking to be counter picked. I play support on a more than regular basis just so i can avoid the lane calling/pick order confusion. Plus I win like 90% of my support games so it works out in the end. I perfer a mix of both to be honest, a team talking and working together to get everyone in their best/most play'd lanes. =D

pick order, but there's a lot of versatile people out there, I'd recommend calling your best role just to give your team a heads up.

I'll never pick a mid, even if I want to play mid, when I'm banning champs. It's just stupid and almost never ends well, unless you're first picking Eve. I honestly wish it went in reverse pick order, but people are stupid.
