Option to prevent teammates from banning other players champs.

So I have seen countless games that players during the Declare champ select session, will pick the champ they want to play, to only have someone on their own team ban that champ. Then creates a rage fest and negative experience all together. or forces a dodge for longer queues etc.

I would like to add a suggestion to Riot. Would you please make it so that someone on your own team, cannot select to ban a champion that has already been Declared by a teammate that they want to play. This will prevent troll bans from people not liking certain champs etc. It will have no effect on if enemy team ends up banning that champ etc. But it will prevent players from banning champions that the teammate would like to play.

It would allow Yasuo to see play again if they did this. Same with Zac.

I would prefer this, but I would hate to see the Gameplay and Player Behavior boards taking up all the space complaining about that change.

There are actual tactical reasons for not making this change. Say the person who wants to play X champ is in bottom of the pick order and no one wants to lock it in for them early. If it's a highly contested champ then it should be banned still if your team is unsure they can risk dealing with it on enemy team. That being said, maybe a double confirmation for hovered champs will prevent the accidental bans of people who get in the habits of banning the same champ constantly.
