More bans please.

With close to 130 champions in the game and the strength of keystone masteries, we are in need of more bans. There are too many champions that require bans and are extremely strong. I'm not saying lets get 20 bans. But 5 for each team would be sufficient. This is coming from a player who's been around since season 2. I've seen the game evolve into what it is now and thinks that we need to keep more of the really strong champions down or out completely.

We keep asking, but riot keeps rejecting this. Not sure why as they'll never tell us.

Allowing more bans would be tantamount to Riot admitting their game is horribly balanced.

I feel like they've already recognized that its terrible xD And have just said, fuck it, on most of their changes.

Well, at this point I think Riot has realized that it's too difficult and too time-consuming to balance all 130 champs around each other.

Did you notice how the number of champs with ban-worthy mechanics / abusable Items has increased over the last year? That's right - the new agenda is this: http://apollo-na-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/1420860278880/everyone-can-be-super-and-when-everyones-super-no-one-will-be.jpg

"When everyone's is super, .... noone is."

Hence, my new strategy during pick&ban is "Ban the champion you want to see least in your lane". Can't get better than that at the moment.

You have a total of 8 bans on your team. Like 3 bans, and then you get to take away 5 champs and play them instead of letting opponents play >_+.

Meh Yes and No. It would be nice to ban out the flavor of the patch OP champs and get people to actually mix it up a bit with the 130 champions we have; but at the same time I find that if everyone is on the same page on your team 3 bans and 5 picks is enough. you can easily ban any champs that are just busted in the current patch, then pick what you feel is strong.

Would be nice to see more bans tho so it would effect competitive. So boring watching all the teams banning and picking the same champions every match.

Concurred. Too many overpowered toons right now

You guys don't ban the right things anyway as is. I hardly say any Nautilus bans even though he's both completely busted and extremely popular right now. And don't even get me started on the lack of Janna bans. You guys are still banning shit like Tahm and Mundo while letting the 2 most broken champs on this patch get through nearly every game. Giving you more bans isn't going to change that.
