It's not guaranteed. You must be in a party of 3 and the matchmaker must Match you with a party of 3. If that happens then draft mode will kick in automatically. I've played about 5 and only received it once

Nobody ever wants to play support so I'm doing my part by being support all the time. I always pick last in case I get lucky and get to play my ringo or taka :). We are usually ringocp/lane joule/weapon/jungle and I'm ardan support. Sometimes catrhine. With that team setup what is the best ardan build and why? And then Catherine in case I get stuck with her with the new ranking system. Warhorn or contraption mid gsme?

Vainglory has so much to it. I've played for a long time and I still feel I'm learning.im pretty good and I play every night but I know I can be wayyyyyy better. Where do you all get your info? The real in depth stuff. Like when exactly to use crucible(for each character)? Or to even get crucible? Should I get defense piercing wp/cp item? How do I know which item to get when I'm playing again a saw(or any hero)? What if they have 1 or more stunners on there team? Should I get serpent mask?...

Is there some where I can go to really really understand weapons/crystal. I've played a ton of games and basically understand to strengthen basic attacks get weapons. To strengthen Abilities get crystal. So if I go all crystal does my characters basic attacks never strengthen at all? So if I go crystal, taka would be worthless when my Abilities aren't ready? Seems like all characters but support would benefit from being weapon and crystal and not just one. Or all weapon if I had to...
