Only SIX bans.

Frosty Lab·May 21, 2016·4 votes·909 views

Am I the only one that thinks it's a bit ridiculous we can only have six bans? I understand that it might have worked earlier in the game but at this point when there are so many champions? It feels a bit redundant to only allow six. I feel personally that the number should be bumped up to 10. Yes - 10. Five bans per team. This would be much more efficient at assisting with the balance issues six gives us AND it'd take care of this specific problem for at least another season or two.

Thoughts?

Also.. if we get enough attention and enough support? I will absolutely start a major project to bring this to Riot's attention. :D

I hear they were originally supposed to increase it for every season. If we were going based on that, then we should be at 12 bans. :c I do agree though. There are so many OP champs and so little bans.

I swear I see a thread about this at least once a day.

My opinion hasn't changed - I still agree. Riot, on the other hand, doesn't.

Really? Doesn't seem like I've seen one in a few weeks. Oh well. I actually intend and have the know-how on doing something about it. :D

You'd be amazed.

You have my support if you think you can change their mind.

If the balance team relys on bans to balance their game... Something's wrong

That comment doesn't make much sense. One item can make a vast group of champions OP. And with there being so many champions now? We need more bans to balance it out.

If one item makes champions op, they nerf the item, not the champions.

Frosty LabMay 22, 20161 votes

I was giving an example. There are numerous factors that come into play. But with so many champions it's easy to overlap buffs even accidentally and make a wider group of champions OP than previously done. We need more bans in order to address this properly.

I think that answers what you just said

Edit: Maybe I should change "Something's wrong" to "Then they haven't done their job"

The fact that this Game has the second largest roster in the genre but has one of the fewest number of bans is simply mind-boggling. It makes no sense to have just three bans per side at this point.
