Last season i remember pro team banning nidalee cause she was too strong on red side. Any other champion who is strong on a particular side of the map? This happen only for jungler or also for midlaners/top/adc too? So, what makes a champion stronger on the blue side? Baron pressure? Baron Steal? Some secret strategy???

Elise is significantly stronger on blue side because the first red top tower is far, far easier to dive than the first blue top tower.

Kinda depends on the champ. Often related to baron entrances, but can sometimes be who has krugs/gromp available and that sort of thing.

LS talks about why red varus is pretty potent in this video for some relatively in-depth talk that can get you thinking about different side factors. (Excuse his unfortunate pronunciation of phalanx.)
