sure enough it happened, so not only did i waste 30 minutes and lose ELO for the game, dodging would have had the same result.
Losing ELO to dodge is kinda dumb sometimes

Losing ELO to dodge is kinda dumb sometimes And I had a 0-12-0 mid who ragefed as last pick because he didnt get top. Had same person next game and again hes telling us he will feed.
Was worth the 10 elo but would prefer to not have lost any.

I think jax is the missing picture for top. Also I think that there is a lot of error in the charts. The chart has no way of telling if kennen or morde went top or mid, or if nunu went mid or bot for one thing.
It also is representative of the majority of players, so if you have a different playstyle than the majority or do different builds that may or may not be better than the standard, then these numbers don't apply to you.
You run into some of the common problems of applying too much math to anything.

This doesn't solve the first at all. People who are AFK will just stay in queue being placed into teams over and over and over, maybe eventually even getting to the point where you have an entire game full of AFKs.
problem solved, all afks eventually matched together, minions win game

Karma and Taric best supports? :D

Man I really have to say i liked the American art for Mundo better than the Chinese
also they should have changed Akalis default, not just fucked around with the skins
glad of the tf change though, his new art they had was just ridiculously stupid looking
which WW and Trist skins did they change? I dont even see any changes right off

People who are AFK will just stay in queue being placed into teams over and over and over, maybe eventually even getting to the point where you have an entire game full of AFKs. There are definitely going to be trolls who abuse this. At Elos where you have very long queues and there are few people queuing, doding an AFK costs you a significant amount of time and/or ends up placing you back into the same matchup. The problem is that auto-randoming someone doesn't make sense the way drafting is implemented in LoL. It's a holdover from how drafting was done in DotA (if you go over the allotted time, your hero gets auto-randomed), but in DotA, drafting is all done by the captain, rather than going through players in sequence, so the only requirement is that the captain doesn't AFK.
If you don't select a hero AT ALL during the allotted time, it should re-queue everyone and kick you out of queue. If you want to hard random, you still have the option to lock in nothing. Auto-randoming simply doesn't make sense in solo queue in this context.

Hm, i don't know what to think about those stats. Malzahar is the best mid, karma the best support? Vayne as best carry i might accept in soloqueue, though i'd have guessed it would be graves.
I'd guess some factors that need to be taken into consideration is that uncommon champions give you a knowledge advantage, because you will almost always know the matchup better then your enemy, and chances are if you are playing a non-mainstream champion there is a reason to it (counterpick, you are really good with that champion, etc...), while if you play a mainstream champion it might just be because he is mainstream.

They could use a weighted random based on your most frequently played champs, but I also think they should just not accommodate AFKers. (Also Yango you should mathcraft "most DPS on single item with no other DPS items," I still think it was MBR, at least before the IE buff )

But like.. what's the point of doing some weighted random? If I'm not there to pick my champ there are a few cases: a) I queue'd up, went afk, took too long and would like to play. Neither random nor weighted random would help in that case. b) I queue'd up, my refrigerator caught fire and I won't come back. Neither random nor weighted random would help in that case. c) I queue'd up, had all sounds off and.. I dno. I can't really think of more scenarios.
tl;dr: If you're afk, you should be kicked from queue without punishing anyone else. In case a) it kind of sucks, but I'd add a certain number of times people can dodge without repercussions and keep it secret from the general public. (like making a dodge via afk fine for 1/20 games for each game you already played this month or something similar.)

I agree, being afk at selection should just act like if you dodge, with all the resulting consequences for the player. Punishing a team because they get the afk dude, and make them either dodge or waste 20 minutes and lose elo because someone else afkd is not good.

I queue'd up, alt-tabbed to play Megaman, came back once I heard "Welcome to Summoner's Rift," and I'd been given Darius. Basically perfect for Mogwai. High elo queues can get pretty long, a lot of those players do other stuff while waiting, and also focus on a single role/lane in terms of champion picks. But yes as I mentioned I don't think they should accommodate AFKers.
