banning hovered champions.

Why is this even allowed? what purpose does it server? If I'm hovering say zed or yasuo, (champs that often get banned) why is my team allowed to ban them? Either they do it by mistake, or do it do be an asshole, either way it should have happened.

It depends. If it is an oppressive champion that everyone wants (Like Zed or Yasuo) and you are not first pick. It's definitely acceptable to say "NOPE" so the other team doesn't pick it before you. I've seen that happen too many times. Especially those last pick people who have some oppressive OP hovered and get mad for it being banned. Why do people let themselves get mad at that because they shoudl realize they likely wouldn't be able to pick it anyway.

18% win rate with yasuo... I would ban your yasuo every day of the week.

When I see a champion such as Zed or Yasuo being hovered, I will quickly OP.GG the player. If I see they main him and do well with him, I won't ban him. If I see they are doing poorly on him, I will ban him (and dodge if they are a toxic player and begin raging).

Considering you currently have an 21% win-rate on Yasuo (14 games), I would definitely ban him.

Because sometimes I don't want to save an OP champ for the last pick player, or sometimes I just don't want to play with a troll pick.

I mean if that was the case it would basically just be a free pass would it not? Like if you hover its basically telling the system not to ban, Then people would troll holding "OP" when the enemy team will more than likely get it first. Then what's stopping someone from not picking it when they go to choose a champion? again its basically giving a free pass to let the enemy team pick them!

its a legitimate strategy. i recognize you want to play yasuo top, but seeing as how you already preselected your champion going into the next game i have a few issues with that.

which i would bring up and discuss with you however ive already had this discussion 100x before, of which the vast majority still go through with their yasuo pick

despite knowing full well that yasuo would be counterproductive to our already full ad selections, and seeing as how you aren't first pick and i dont want there to be a yasuo on the enemy team. ill go ahead and ban your hovered champion because its better for the team in this situation.
