Can Riot Set it up So that People can't ban your Displayed Pick..?

Tired of getting into picks and showing I want Kog Maw, or Jhin, or some champs other people have suddenly decided aren't good for whatever lane I'm in... So they ban it for the hell of it. I really am starting to hate this community.

Let's say you want to play the most broken champ in the game but the enemy will get first pick.

In that case you would basically screw over your team by forcing them to give that broken champ to the enemy.

Most cases would not be that extreme, but wanting to play Graves when you're last pick is pretty much hopeless.

I know that 90% of the time people do it to troll or because they don't believe you can play the champ well; but if you take this away from them, then they'll just find some other way to be an asshole.

They are doing this when I have a Kog shown, and I have first pick though. This is a troll issue, not someone trying to avoid dealing with the other people having the champ.

But solving the problem for the troll issue also destroys it for all the legitimate times you would need to ban an otherwise desired champion.

Also, trolls are trolls regardless of how they do it. They'll just find another way to piss you off.

No. I see someone pick release week champ, Lee, Yasuo, or Kog, I ban them. Simple as that.

Except there are people that can play Kog, yasuo, and Lee. and people who played released champs in the beta... You're just being a twat.

Except it seems that whenever I get a player who chooses one of the above champions on my team, they blow ass. Jhin has a 39% winrate mid and around 42% ADC, Kog has a low winrate (not sure on numbers), I don't even need to cite Lee's winrate because he's Lee, and Yasuo players are either really bad or really good. I don't feel like risking one of my games so I can watch a Jhin go 1/23/4 in ranked because it's his first game. No thanks.

I had a 54% win rate on Kog Maw, different players have different strengths. And banning because other people have screwed up with a champ and you don't want it on your team; rather than banning because you don't want the enemy team to use a champ is literally going the opposite direction of what bans are intended for. You're just being an a**. Straight up

But, if the majority of others are making a mistake with the champion, why would I take the risk of getting a shitty one on my team?

I never ever declare a champion...and if I do then I pick a random troll pick for the fun of it just to see how many people freak out ("Omg please do not do soraka jungle!" lol)....or try to convince my whole team to pick teemo (since the enemy can see our declared champ before we pick our real one).

Don't declare a champ then?

Yes. But if we aren't going to declare champions, then this entire period of time is a huge waste. So either its frustrating or its a waste of time.

I don't see why this is a part of the new champion select process. It serves no purpose other than generating frustration.

It can suck having your intent banned, but I just hate risking free week champs, and popular champs that have low win rates, you can thank all the idiots who play like garbage with the champs you like that people ban them. the solution is just be a versatile player with most champs, that way if your intent is banned you have another go too champ !

U dont know how many time this happen to me...

I just start to troll altogether fuk this community!

If im first pick I pick the champ that the person who ban my champ want and go troll their lane and force them to afk and get caught by leaver buster and laugh it of.

This needs to change. We try to deal with randoms in que and this is a simple fix that would discourage trolls and the like. Its getting harder and harder to find people to actually play the game with. no wonder I took a 2 year hiatus > _'<
