League of Legends Team Builder Goes Live
Claim your role and build the perfect team with this latest League of Legends feature.
Tired of practicing a lane in League of Legends bot matches, just to queue up with a group and not get your desired role? Trust me, we've all been there when solo-queuing and not getting your lane can often times be more upsetting than losing a match entirely. Luckily, Riot has responded to the community's cries and has introduced a new feature that helps you claim the role you want and join, or build, the perfect team for you.
Introducing the latest feature to land in the game: "Team Builder".
As seen in the video, Team Builder will allow you to select your champion, lane and role ahead of time and will then place you in a queue to find whatever other positions your group needs filled, similar to how Dungeon queues tend to work in MMORPGs. It's also important to note that Team Builder is a separate queue from normal or ranked matches, but you will be able to queue with a group or solo.
This new feature is sure to bring less stress from players frantically trying to claim their roles at champion select, and more focus on actual communication and strategy before the match. If you've used this new feature already, let us know what you think about it in the comments below. For more information on Team Builder, be sure to check out the original news post here and, as always, keep it locked to ZAM and Lolking for all of your League of Legends news, information and updates.
See you in game, summoner!
