The game was switching champs during banning and drafting.....

This has been happening often, but I was now able to catch it.

It was showing a connection issue, but my network was good and on 5 bars. I had just finished a match before this with no problems. The "lock in pick" button wasn't even available, so I was just stuck.

Also, there were times when the game would get stuck on loading after the ban stage is complete, then quickly jumps to the draft stage giving me a few seconds left to draft a champ, or it has already drafted a champ for me (one I did not want), and is now on the opponent.

This is unfair interference and it's a problem.

When the timer expires, why can't the game simply keep the champs we've already selected, instead of auto-switching them out?

This happened A LOT last season.

And it would always ban one of the same two champs incorrectly, Serpent or Onslaught. Serpent, my highest champ, who was rather useless weeks 3 and 4.

Or, Onslaught, who is the 4th champ on my roster, and was a bit of a necessity weeks 3 and 4.

Last season was the worst season I've encountered with missed inputs, whiffs, frame-skipping recovery, etc. And there was quite the uptick in modders, many I have encountered in past seasons. Kabam has either given up correcting these issues in their "most competitive" mode, or they simply perpetuate it.

Then, this phenomenon, which has happened occasionally in the past - but nowhere near to this extent. I probably lost as few dozen points overall in hindsight, considering knuckleheads would still ban my Serpent rather frequently. Meanwhile, I know there were missed opportunities when Onslaught didn't show up in my draft a few times.

Another season where thousands of radiance were lost after I've given this company thousands of dollars the last few years.
