Yasuo and Lee Sin will not reach a 100% ban rate with 10 bans

Oakleaf Ranger··3 votes·665 views

I don't even think their ban rates will increase that much by comparison to more meta picks. There are just better overall picks at the moment than those 2 to justify using bans on them. An increase in Yasuo ban will more likely have to with avoiding the match ups that he is actually really good into rather than because he is "op". Since certain roles are rarely target banned, Lee Sin isn't high enough on the jg pecking order to take priority over other jg champions to ban out.

Do not get your hopes up or expect some kind of miraculous ban rate increase on those 2 when more ban are allowed. If anyone was ever in a pick/ban state like Kassadin used to be, that champion would be hot fixed or gutted almost immediately.

8/10 times, people just ban something they hate playing against, not something that is actually meta-breaking. Completely idiotic and selfish, but it is what it is.

It is nice to get rid of that champ that puts you on tilt though. I really hate playing mid against Zeds because most of my mid pool suffers against him and if I play my irelia mid people go apeshit.

There's a difference between hate-banning, and banning something that actually fucks you over. I.E, Yasuo. People just ban Yasuo because he's "OP", when in reality, he's really not.

I will ban Yasuo anyways just because i hate playing against him. :D

Or with him for that matter.

Yep, it's not about who is a good matchup. It's about who the fuck do I hate and are they already banned?

I don't think there is a champion that will reach 100% ban rate at all. There is always a difference in point of view when it comes to who to ban. Some people just ban the OPs while others ban champs they just don't like playing against. This leads to a lot of diversity when it comes to pick/ban phases.

I felt like making this after seeing some of the posts that made it to the top. Apparently Yasuo and lee sin are unstoppable gods that will finally be banished to the shadow realm with 10 bans.

I know there is a lot of hype around those champs but both can be counter and beaten pretty badly if they get counterpicked. I guess for me it's not that big of an issue because I play counters for both of them. Vi beats lee GarenRenekton eats yas pretty easily.

I learned to deal with them a long time ago, I don't play weak early game junglers that are highly vulnerable to invades or laners that are weak to yasuo. He does have obnoxious match ups though, which I would consider worth banning. otherwise there are better bans.

", Lee Sin isn't high enough on the jg pecking order to take priority over other jg champions to ban out." - What crack are you on, lee sin not high in the "pecking order" he is tier one and prob the best jungler at the moment, i see him either picked or banned at the moment.

He's always been picked or banned. Nothing new.

you think I care? Once I get a band every game he will be banned every game i play.

Banning Yasuo because he is Yasuo > Banning Yasuo because he is OP

Doesnt matter if there are better bans. Not being annoyed all match is worth banning those 2.
