I'm loving Draft normal Que, less rage and its not facing doubles everyone. Win win.

I'm impressed by it, but it's still not good enough to completely supplant blind pick.

The issue with doppleganger games is not the fact that you (or your team mates) may or may not "pwn your double".

It's that it's incredibly dull to face off against someone with the same exact skill set...Annie on Annie for instance is BORING, you just run around with your stun charged. Sure skill plays a big part, but there is no dynamic flow. If I dominate mid with Annie against another Annie (done it quite often but I get owned sometimes too) the early-mid game becomes repeatative. Against other champs though, there are dynamic moments. Against a Morganna, I couldn't play the way I would, same if I were against a Swain, Veigar etc. Facing your double is just boring to me.

This is exactly the problem. In competitive play there's a whole other host of problems, but in general mirror matchups are boring and introduce horribly ridiculous tactics in lane (for instance, annie and annie just avoiding each other when they both have stun).

Yeah, basically prolongs the game. Unless you literally kill your double everytime they step in the lane you're going to be fapping with one hand while macro smart-casting with the other. It's just a major drag especially if your opponent is non agressive and all you two do is free farm.

I'm glad there's a draft pick normals. It needed it, no more stupid duo AP Yi's running around trying to alpha strike your whole team and such. The blind pick mechanic is alright in some instances but soloquing to run into a doppleganger game where you've got 3 mirrors on your team is just plain moronic most of the time.

We don't know yet if they're going to keep it once Ranked is back up. Although I saw Morello and Zenon saying they would probably put it in for good at some point as long as there were no technical issues.

They had better keep it. It's better overall for the game...Or so it seems.
