Challenges look pretty pog, though are you able to share what achievement points are going to do
I am able to share that they should have been challenge points but I messed up the image.

Yep, this is on our radar! No ETA on when it will be changed (lots going on right now) but will confirm we are aware and agree that it's a good idea.
Aren’t you kind of handicapping it from the get-go if it’s so limited? I know I’d use it if it was all my friends list, but I’m certainly not gonna use it if it’s just the people in my lobby, so it seems kinda destined to fail.
Its not just the folks in your lobby, its actually all players on your friends list but it is available inside ranked lobbies.
Hello, are there plans to address autofill in Challenger elo?
Even just 1 fill can at times make the game nearly unplayable and there are days where you get 5 fill lobbies in a row, there is no guarantee the enemy team has fills either.
Would love to at least have this issue be acknowledged, it's especially awkward as an ADC main who might have to lane with a top laner at times (rarely ends well, even if things like fasting Senna help).
The work outlined in this article also applies to Challenger. We're investigating changes that would reduce the number of autofilled folks at the cost of players getting their secondary role more often.

Cool!
limited to your lobby
Lame...
We're starting in the lobby, since most players enter lobbies and fewer visit the ranked page. We may expand and enhance it in the future depending on how reception goes!
smells like bullshit, i know lol codes are old as f**k and need a refont or a newly made game like Dota2 so u can struggle less on doing minimal changes like that because its just embarassing at this point
Lol, caught me. Donezo tbh
I'm holding my breath.
This is all lines up to be £ternal$ 2.0
Be ready for them to charged £10 for "one trick" tag.
Hell, even money to select your boarder.
No charges planned in this space.
That's the goal, they don't want you to dodge cause you don't like the teamcomp. I also dislike the mage/senna support against heavy dive enemy comp.
It is highly unlikely that most games are actually lost in champ select. Most games are lost when the nexus explodes.
Probably because those Summoners are identified by names and by numbers. The internal Summoner ID number is how the system identifies an individual (as you could change your account's name). If you pull the Summoner ID number with an API (which you can), you know who it is. You'd have to find a way to obscure that, which is a larger rewrite of what's going on in champion select.

Read moreNot pressuring you at all, but I'm interested in learning why this is intensely expensive?
I assume the lobby keeps track of all 10 summoner IDs, and the 5 enemies are already hidden away via "Summoner 1, Summoner 2, etc.". Can we not re-use whatever abstracts the summoner name/ID into a generic name and re-name the enemy, "Enemy summoner 1"?
Also, just wondering if it's the case that you guys see the problem as 2 parts.
1. People are OPGG checking their teammates and dodging undesirable winrates.
- People are dodging off of team comps alone, if it looks unwinnable, they leave.
Obfuscating the name solves issue 1. . . But the case that the 2nd issue is the main reason people dodge? Then I can see the value gained vs effort to develop this change isn't worth it.
Then the real issue is people don't think games are winnable, and how to change/balance the game to give them confidence. Hence, not worth the dev time for ...
Short untechnical version: removing the names only solves the problem if you aren't using a 3rd party tool (like Mobalytics, Blitz, et al). We'd have to change a bunch of stuff behind the scenes as well.
So still no update on the afk penalty escalation.
Soon™
We need to hide names in lobby.
They claim to be against dodging, so they introduce reactive measures to disincentivize.
But how about being proactive, and eliminate one of the primary reasons players dodge in the first place?
This answer is going to be unsatisfying but we've looked into it and it is intensely expensive relative to the value it provides. Not saying never, but given all the things we can work on its fairly low on the priority list.
Will look into it. Sorry this happened.
Huh, haven't seen that. Looks interesting, thanks!
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
This is top-tier. Gonna go buff him rn.
I will dodge if you put me on jungle, even if you ban me for 30 days for it.
Look, I only have time for a couple of games. I am not going to play a game I don't want to play, and jungle is a game I don't want to play.

My buddy loves playing league, but the game will crash for him once in every 5 games, taking him 5 minutes to reload the game. He usually ends up getting afk penalty, will he not be able to play league anymore?
This answer is going to kind of suck, but it is the truth: He will be able to play League, but if he continues to get AFK penalties he will eventually have long wait periods as he rises in the tiers. (We aren't banning him from the game, but he will be unable to play for 2 weeks at a time at the highest tiers)
There isn't a great way to detect the difference between a crash and someone doing it on purpose (and if there were, people would just cause their game to crash to defeat such detection). The priority call has to be to preserve the experience of the most players possible.
You probably aren't winning a large % of the games where he goes AFK, and that can't feel great to your teammates either. It also turns out it doesn't feel great to the people on the other team who go from having a fun back and forth to a hollow victory.
If he hasn't already, I would recommend reaching out to player support to see if there's a common resolution to his crashing...
Read moreIf they add stricter dodge penalties, then they 100% need to actually add punishments for holding lobbies hostage. If you don't get your role then there is currently no downside, autofilled jungle and midlane won't swap with you? No problem just lock in soraka take ghost and cleanse, either someone dodges, or you grief the game.
The ghost cleanse Soraka and the smite hecarim support games I let go through this season did not result in a ban for either player.
I'm 100% aware that these dodges make up the minority, but they still exist.
This is next. We take hostage situations seriously.
Read moreHow do you think that compares to the penalty for dodging. It's honestly a spit in the face to even put penalties for dodging in the same discussion as AFK/inting. Dodging 3 games in 24 hours is going to lock me out of ranked for 12 hours. Leaving 3 games in 24 hours is going to lock me out for what? Ten minutes?
The way I see it dodging is "good behavior". I promise you the amount of bad behavior is going to sky rocket as a result of people being forced into games they do not want to be in.
In high elo it's well understood that if your 1 trick gets banned or you are filled to a role you can't play, you dodge. If the game goes through that player WILL be flamed and it really is justified. With penalties this harsh for dodging you really can't expect that person to dodge, so you just expect everybody to go into game knowing it's a loss and be ok with it?
Solve the actual problems first then worry about people actually abusing dodging. There are actual abuses,...
Lot to unpack here, but let me try:
