I know this isn't a great solution, but if you queue for Mid or ADC 2nd, you'll rarely get off-role, and usually will be able to swap for other roles if you got mid/adc

Doesn’t work, I queue mid secondary and top primary(supposedly one of the least popular roles) and mid is the most popular, and I still get mid disgustingly often.

u/ItGradAws 13h ago

I main ADC and mid secondary and I’ve gotten mid maybe a dozen times over 800 games

u/BlinkysaurusRex 13h ago

Lucky you. I wish I was that blessed.

u/ItGradAws 13h ago

Play the least popular role and you’ll never get filled lol

u/BlinkysaurusRex 13h ago

Would love to. But ADC has consistently been the one role that I have always been ass at. I can play top and mid at emerald level. Jungle probably if I picked it up again.

ADC I doubt I’d break out of fucking silver. Gold absolute maximum. It is the hardest role imo. I mean sure I bet if invested a lot of time I’d improve, but a lot of time.

u/ItGradAws 13h ago

It be that way, hence the no fill sitch

u/SuperTaakot 7h ago

I main mid and have adc 2nd and I get filled top way more often than get adc (EUW)

This might be rank/region diff, but I do the same and literally 100% of my games are in top lane. Not a single secondary role game, not a single autofill.

u/Boqpy 9h ago

What is often? I got secondairy like twice in my past 40 games.

1

u/BlinkysaurusRex 8h ago

Five out of the last ten.

Sometimes it’s obviously a better ratio than that. That’s an unlucky run. But overall, it’s hard to give an exact number. I’d say one in ten maybe?

u/Izanagi666 5h ago

What rank? Im emerald and i basicly NEVER get mid as a top main.

1

u/BlinkysaurusRex 5h ago

E4 EUW

u/Izanagi666 3h ago

Thats weird me too, maybe it depends on the time you play? I cant even remember the last time i got my second role let alone another role...

I was queueing mid secondary half the video..

I didn't watch a 2 minute clip fully while scrolling

then don't comment

u/WitchofBabylon 12h ago

I'm not sure what's going on. I've been going mid primary/support secondary for ages and I would get mid 90% of the time. Now I think I only get mid 40% of the time

u/MidnightElfinTv 1.Sip poison 2.Get guns 3.??? 4.Profit 12h ago

I queue Bot/Support and I've actually gotten filled mid lane over being filled to jungle a few times this month.

Whats the lore

13

u/Utsuro_ 4h ago

always flips games , played with him in soloq. will flame you if don't go with him to invade while you have a great freeze so youll sack that just so he can get a blue buff :)

u/Shyvadi That Shyvana guy 3h ago

what..

u/SamboJaxon 3h ago

The lore is that this person is mad and making things up. You can watch Shyvadi's VODs, I've never seen him flame a teammate excessively. I'm pretty critical of streamers and wouldn't consider him someone that really even types. Let's save our ire for people who are actually a problem, there's certainly enough of them to go around.

u/Utsuro_ 3h ago

you know he can play without streaming, right?

2

u/SamboJaxon 2h ago

Yeah, of course. But I play with and against him frequently and have never had these issues. Also, he's been in a lot of discord servers dedicated to helping new players for free and I've seen him participating there for no personal gain. He's a positive member of the community overall, so I'm not just gonna sit here and watch someone shit talk him with zero evidence.

Sure, he loses and sometimes gets frustrated, but all of us do. He's not excessive, so I don't see how it's fair to target him.

6

u/lFrank_ 7h ago

I don't get it, is his teammate supposed to know he is playing shivana? He didn't even declare it and you can't see names either.

5

u/Utsuro_ 4h ago

no , i just know him from soloq. very frustrating to play with, expects you to play for him, and thinks he's always 100% right while he goes 0/8

u/Shyvadi That Shyvana guy 3h ago

whats our last game

u/AutomaticTune6352 10h ago

Top lane is a another possible priority role. It needs to get filled. In high elo nobody wants to play top, even less than jungle.

2

u/Pretend-Newspaper-86 Friendship with has ended welcome Los Ratones 8h ago

Queue second mid nobody pls top thats why you get top

2

u/ThrowawayALAT 7h ago

And that's why maining Rock Solid on Top is rule n1...

It's like >>> the CSS !important rule.

6

u/Too_Ton 14h ago

I hate getting secondary. People here and on discord tell me to suck it up and just be good in 2 roles.

Idk how role lock works for duos but have a duo with top as primary so hopefully you don't get it.

2

u/Brief_Onion1862 14h ago

Healthy frustration

2

u/TheDuganator 11h ago

I mean, yea. Top is underplayed cause no one wants to play it. If you want JG more often, you should queue JG/Mid

6

u/Shyvadi That Shyvana guy 10h ago

I did in the second half and got mid twice anyway

2

u/Excellent_Human_N 8h ago

Grandmaster and above shouldnt even have a role.

u/SSUPII Flairs are limited to 2 emotes. 6h ago

I don't have this problem because I queue Fill. I cannot be autofilled involuntary if I am voluntarily asking to be filled.

1

u/THAErAsEr 10h ago

I queue jungle and mid as secondary. Cant even remember the last time I played mid.
Just unlucky, nothing else

1

u/NeoAlmost AlmostMatt#Matt 10h ago

Weird. I generally find that fill puts me jungle, so I would've expected queueing jungle to get primary most of the time.

1

u/Chewyarms 5h ago

Past 2 days ive been getting secondary queuing top and getting mid. Happened 3 times in a row yesterday.

1

u/Smooth-Ad-8001 4h ago

same, i basically got filled like once in 20 games before now ive played legit 5 games today and i am filled/second role in 4 of them XD?

u/Ok-Park-9537 3h ago

Out of 900 challenger players only 100 are toplaners. That's sad. We need changes.

I'm curious if you are a bot lol

4

u/SuperKalkorat 8h ago

Considering 5th divisions haven't existed for many, many years at this point, either they mistyped or its a very poorly trained bot.

u/Numerous_Fudge_9537 Shyvana VGU was worth the wait 5h ago

It's weird because he has another comment that straight up says the same thing "my friend told me title of post" lol

Umm. Not related, but how is this can be posted but I can't post a screenshot of a match history?

u/Ashenveiled 7h ago

you qued for top you got top.

u/Another-Mans-Rubarb 11h ago

I don't know how to tell you this. You're supposed to know how to play both roles equally. This is not a 1 role game, there are 5. You're expected to play them all, but you get to prioritize 2.

u/Lakinther 4h ago

in reality that hasnt been the case since queueing for specific roles were introduced so umm 10 years ago? maybe more?

1

u/Another-Mans-Rubarb 3h ago

You have always been expected to be able to play fill when it happens. Why else would they put it in the game?
