DFG is removed now can we add more bans?
So DFG removal is a good decision but we are missing a key point in match making that takes place before you even get into game, the number of bans aloud per team. Lets take a quick look at some ratios: 2009-LoL begins with 40 champions and has 3 bans per team, 6 bans total. that means one team could get rid of 7.5% of the champions and total 15% of the champions were banned. 2015-LoL season 2015 starts and has 123 champions and still same bans 3/team and 6 total. that means one team can get rid of 2.4% of the champions and 5.6% total champions are banned.
Now I do not believe we need to have the 'same' ratio of champions banned(ie 6/40 = 18.45/123) cause that is just too much banning and quite frankly not that many champions are broken or are too easy to play to change the flow of the game or counter who you want to play or don't want to play against in general. But a simple 6 bans/team would be 12 total and bring the ratio to the middle(it would be like league starting and allowing 1.5 bans per team so 3 total)
I believe that if my number of 12 total bans is accurately close to bringing more balance to the game, and perhaps in eSports tournaments it doesn't even require a change because those are the best players league has to offer and are more than capable of playing a tougher game. However in public match making something needs to be done and I feel this is a great solution.
Please leave feedback on your thoughts and don't forget to rate if you agree or disagree.
Edit: Kivolan said 5 bans per team allowing 1 person to ban a champion, great idea. I still think 6 would be ideal but just adding more bans in general would be an improvement. The idea of everyone getting to ban someone instead of top slot getting to ban for the whole team is another great idea riot should consider and work into the game.
