So ive been thinking of ways to improve the champion selection portion of LoL. Sometimes things just fall into place when calling positions. But, more likely then not, players are "forced" to play champs or roles they dont want to play. This makes, in my mind, the sting of a loss infinitly more potent...

What if match making was more like WoW dungeons? When you select to enter a queue for a ranked game, you are prompted with choosing each role youd like to possibly play. If you only want to play mid, then select only mid as your lane choice. Can you play all roles? then select all the roles, i would imagine that would get you into a game faster anyways. once the computer organizes the teams, it starts the champion select that we all know and love, but each person in assigned a role based on one of their choices. And, since position is depended on the 'hidden elo' there would be no way of knowing the positions of the opposing team.

Im sure im not the first person to think of this, but please give your input on the matter. I just think that rushing into champ select and demanding roles is getting tiresome....

Thanks for reading

Not going to happen likely. Many people have suggested before.
Be versatile and adapt to your team for best success. I just jungled twice when I really wanted to support and go 2 wins which put me into series + 1 win yay.
