The time for four bans in draft/ranked is necessary now more than ever. I recall a few red posts stating that new champions is one of the core qualities of league of legends to help game development and pursue better balance.

Even Smite has four bans per team and their pool isn't nearly as big as League's. I'm not sure about the bans in Dota2. But besides the point. If we were to have four bans per team it only banishes 9.84% of the pool leaving 81.16% which is still enough diversity per game. As of right now the 3bans per team are pretty much used for the same champions:

DOTA 2 I believe also has 4 bans per team (8 total), same as Smite. DOTA 2 also only has a Roster of 110 characters. Smite has only a Roster of 68. League of Legends currently has a Roster of 123 and only 3 bans per team (6 total).

I agree 100% with you in that it should be bumped up from 6 to 8. As it is currently affecting the Quality of Life when it comes to draft/ranked play.

If you have 8 bans, then everyone will complain about the 9th strongest champion and how unfair they are. If you have 10 bans, everyone will complain about how little counterplay the currently 11th strongest champion has. How about we just get 123 bans and uninstall the game instead?
