I hope ban options could exist in ARAM. If there is no bans, several possible situation could exist

  1. Some players may dodge again and again, until they got a veigar, teemo, fiddle, heimerdinger, etc.
  2. Some players may create a new account for ARAM, and only buy those champions which perform well in Howling Abyss.
  3. Although it is all random, it may not suggest real random. For this link httpwww.lolking.netchartsregion=all&type=champion-popularity&range=weekly&map=ha&queue=normal, it shows popular champions of this week. They are

Ashe, TF, Varus, Annie, Sirvir, Zilean, Teemo, Morgana, Lux, Ekko, Veigar, Kayle, Tristana, Draven, and Master Yi.

You can see, many of them works very well in ARAM, such as Ashe, Varus, Teemo, Morg, Lux, Veigar and Yi. You may say, that is because most players have these champion, so these champions got better chance to show up. But, all players have free champions and not all of them got a good chance to get on the stage. Plus, Champions like Teemo, Veigar, Morgana, Lux, and Yi, they do not belong to week free champions, but they always be the popular champions daily, weekly and monthly. So, how could several champions become popular in a random game mode

Sum up, I suggest bans in ARAM.

Similar to the current debate about normal SR draft vs. blind pick, I don't think adding bans to the current ARAM queue is a good solution. There's a decent segment of the playerbase that just wants to get into a game. Adding bans would lengthen champ select and thus worsen the experience for these players.

Ideally, Riot adds a new competitive queue for ARAM. Casual players can continue to enjoy the current system, and competitive players can enjoy bans, larger champ pools, ranked rewards, and whatnot.
