Dem bans though

Cowseed··1 votes·634 views

I got news Riot was going to implement 10 bans. I am a person who doesn't actually care about bans because I like playing against all champions. Some I have a bias against but I like the challenge that gives me. If you are going to implement 10 bans you can't get rid of blind pick. Because some champs will NEVER be played. That also sucks for the people who have a HUGE bias against certain champions and jumps on champion hate band wagons.

It's more optimal to remove Draft and Keep blind. Because you can't create a situation where you can only play a champ in less than 20% percent of games. You have about 2/5 league players that always ban 'OP' champs so that's bad for people who like to play these or just want to try them out. You could fix this and make Draft viable by making bans non-compulsory. I don't want to ban anything and I'm guessing there are more people that don't care about bans so is it possible to make it so we don't have to? Or you could implement the role system in blind pick and remove draft.

Either of those would be fine or some other solution along those lines but don't remove blind. Please.

Blind is the most cancerous mode though

But it's good for everyone who likes to play a balanced game or likes to employ actual strategy beyond "Gotta ban these 3 really powerful things or we just fucking lose".

It's also good for people who like to watch the competitive scene, because it expands the pool of meta champions by a significant margin. Right now, at any given moment, a player need ONLY ever be proficient on 5 champions and that's only if you're a team solo carrier who always has their best picks banned away from them. If the meta is such that there are a few seriously OP champs, then you only need to know about 3 champs at any given time.

This leads to INCREADIBLY stale and predictable games, such as we have seen for the past, oh, 3 years roughly. Having additional bans will make it so that players will need to expand their roster and force A and B tier picks into the rotation. It will also enable a single team to put a massive pinch on a single position if they want, allowing for more diverse strategies to emerge... And then get patched out by Riot enforcing the meta, but you know, we can dream.

It also means that I can just perma ban Ekko and never have to play with that canceraids piece of utter bullshit ever again.

People don't play blind simply due that they can't stand mirror matches or too scared someone may have picked a counter to them in a lane.
