Target bans?

Think of your champion pool, who you are best with. That champion was just banned away from you (Target bans).

Gangplank's been proven dangerous; he's the only champion with 100% pick+ban in Worlds (Mordekaiser did actually have a game where he was neither picked nor banned), and has a 100% win rate when not banned.

Elise is easily the most popular pick of the jungle at Worlds. I've never personally had a good grasp on why, but I suspect it's that she shares a lot of the strengths of other popular jungle picks (Rek'sai, Lee Sin, Gragas) but is just "better" at them, given her massive popularity this Worlds.

Renekton definitely seems to be a targetted case; it's always KOO that's banned it out.

I've heard it's because she's the strongest tower diver in the game early on, what with being able to drop tower aggro with the press of a button
