I am still waiting for the Dota 2 champ ban system to be addapted for league.

I mean it still allows you to auto ban that champ who got way to over buffed because riot lost their mind with a 4 second CD reduction on every spell as a passive cough Ryze Cough or made another Diana/Zyra champ that is super broken on day one.

But beyond that it becomes less about banning a champ for being "OP" and instead reacting to a likely team comp that would be a pain in the but to contend with. In other words if the other team picks Orianna you can ban Alistar or vice-versa to stop that combo from being an issue.

It will force stratigies in LCS to be shown early if they are something that a team plans to do and allows for reaction to it with more then just picking something that might deal with it or a champ that will be a huge part of the enemy comp such as rumble + J4.

So Riot why has there not been a change to the pick ban system to make it more reactive and not about just banning what is OP or the enemy team usually plays and does well with?

Yes I want it for solo que as well. IT would make it a little more interesting overall in pick ban phase and promote some more diverse picks and bans.

There's a lot of things in Dota 2 that League should have... like the safe to leave system... or the "if someone doesn't connect the game doesn't start" system...

In dota 2, hard counter is more a thing and that's why this ban/pick system exists. But why do you want this in league? in soloQ you just ban the 6 stronger champions and that's all.

With all the newer champions hard counter is a thing in league now too.

But then everyone who plays DOTA will call league a huge rip off. THEY WILL take advantage of that situation.

Youi do understand that guinsoo is a huge part of the most popular version of the origional dota and league.

In other words League is actually a huge DOTA rip off and the same can be said about DOTA 2 which is a Valve game and not a Blizard game since the original DOTA is best described a a custom add on for warcraft 3.

I want it in league so it is not just about meta sheep banning the 6 strongest champs or 6 they see in the LCS a lot. The Idea is to actaully force people to think a bit when banning instead of just "Ali, Rumble and Ekko are OP so ban them". It should be something more like "we have 2 hard diving champs picked already so we might want to ban Janna since she has so much peel"
