I have been in multiple NORMAL DRAFT lobbies now and non have the 10 ban system. I am really confused cause it is suppose to be released now as of 7.11 being released. Anyone know if i'm doing something wrong or is it not out yet or is it just bugged? (and yes I do have the client updated.)

normals aren't even getting 10 mans. It's bugged.
Anastaecia2 votesI know. That's what I'm trying to explain to zFrostistic, but for some reason the truth gets downvoted. I love humanity.
TimX24968B1 votesnormals aren't even getting 10 mans.
how many men are in those normals then? I'd hate to see less than 5 of each team.
DrCyanide2 votesWe’re adding a simultaneous 10-champ ban phase to all draft Summoner’s Rift modes throughout 7.11, starting with Normal Draft in NA.
They'll start with Normal Draft for NA, but that doesn't mean they planned to start as soon as the patch happened. It'll probably go live later today.

Anastaecia1 votesfrom the notes
"LAUNCH NA Normal Draft only at launch, will be rolled out throughout the patch worldwide (including ranked queues)"
SSJTribe3 votesWhen 10 bans is LAUNCHED, it will ONLY be in NA Normal draft.
As in, 10 bans isn't immediate, but when it does launch it will be in NA Normal Draft only, and then will be rolled out elsewhere throughout 7.11. I hope that clears it up for you.
Anastaecia1 votesWHAT? It is launched...in 7.11. That is the whole point. BTW, if you aren't actually on the newly patched client, then you wouldn't see the headline that says....
"10 BANS LIVE IN NORMAL DRAFT....Everyone gets a ban! Rolling out all other queues soon."
DrCyanide1 votesThe team in charge of articles regularly posts a bit before the tech team actually pushes the "Go!" button. We had the same thing with "My Shop" just a few weeks ago.
BALDG1VEN BOOMER2 votesSaid it will be throughout Patch 7.11 which is essentially what I'm saying
During =/= Immediate
Anastaecia2 votesOMG, read the notes. NA Draft is at launch. How many times do I have to quote the notes? The other regions are during.
BALDG1VEN BOOMER4 votesHere's the first thing they type in case you're brain dead.
"We’re adding a simultaneous 10-champ ban phase to all draft Summoner’s Rift modes throughout 7.11, starting with Normal Draft in NA."
THROUGHOUT 7.11.
TheOmegaBear092 votesThat would be a fair point, except they literally posted an article titled 10 bans live in normal draft
BALDG1VEN BOOMER2 votesThey just said NA first, not immediately after the patch, but even so people can just chill the fuck out and wait?
TheOmegaBear092 votesI mean, that's true but the article I linked flat-out states in it's title that 10 bans is live. And a lot of us are really excited for it, so for them to say "Hey it's live! Go play with shiny new 10 bans!" and then we go play and it's not there, I think it's fair for us to ask them on the boards "Hey guys, where are the shiny new 10 bans you just told us we could play with?" and hope they give us some sort of response
BALDG1VEN BOOMER2 votesRiot has a reputation that anything that needs to be launched after a patch is usually delayed. Plus it's 8am Pacific so someone should be in office soon.
Anastaecia3 votesThe headline on the actual patched client:
"10 BANS LIVE IN NORMAL DRAFT....Everyone gets a ban! Rolling out all other queues soon."
Daedric Etwahl1 votesYeah, honestly the wording on the notes is a bit confusing. "At launch" implies from the get-go, but I guess not.
