@Riot Let's talk about 6 bans and the amount of champions we have
So Riot, I love that each people can ban a champion. We only have 6 champions and i can name many champions that are really too stupid to deal with and too strong.
Number #1
This champion has 60% winrate because of
,

Number #2
: I usually don't ban him. I haven't seen him because he is perma banned all the time when i go ranked. He might fall under the "Annoying" category where you just simply don't want to deal with him AT ALL.
Number #3
: Extremely self-explanatory, but ill go into detail. Too much magic damage and the fact of the matter is he scales everytime he gets 1 HP. He turns into pure tank while dealing loads amount of damage. He also has good amount of utilities. He is, overall, an extremely strong pick and a good flex pick. I would love that they nerfed him but that isn't the purpose of my post.
Number #4
: By no means is she OP. She is pretty similar to Mundo, she falls under that same category ("Annoying"). She is getting changes but these are the bans in my elo atm.
Number #5
: Sleeper OP champion that has rise from his slumber. Too much damage and paired up with crit, he can have 120/120 armor and magic resist, but of course he will need to use his Quickdraw 4 times to achieve that. WIth crit, it makes it easier for him to use quickdraw 4 times. With the amount of damage he has, he is primarily my top ban.
Number #6
: I won't say that she is absolutely OP. She excels in 1v1 and thats who she is. Her laning might is annoying as hell. Her true damage is ridiculous BUT without her having true damage, then she would be left to rot. The heal is what makes her a very big threat in teamfights, but besides that, you can knock her up and blow her away. Keep in mind that i particularly don't like her Riposte, but with her in the top lane and with many people not having fought her to the point that they can't do much against her, this is the reason why she would likely be banned and the same can be said for strong champions out there too.
Number #7
: Strong at the moment but needs a team to back up the utility he has. If he doesn't have a competent team, then this champion can make all the plays he can, the enemy will wipe out the backline without any sweat.
Number #8
: Very strong but the thing is, nothing major has changed with ezreal. He is the same champion. Blue build was the same thing but the main thing with blue build is that he will generally focus on raw damage. He has extreme kiting position and his mini flash makes it even better for him to position. This champion also falls under the Annoying category because of the poke he has. a build for ezreal could generally be this

or whatever you might want to add in.
Number #9
: Very strong and becomes really tanky with 2 ap+ad damage items (His Ult), and build really tanky. I haven't seen him because he is banned. He is strong no doubt but the winrates are a bit iffy. Nevertheless, once he does gets rolling, then the enemy will regret the decision of letting this champion go through.
Number #10
: A lot of people will say that this champion is op straight up. It seems to be understandable when she does go on a rampage. She is safe at the costs of her mana.
still remains good (Of course the maxed out version. I don't know its name). High burst. Statistics have their statistics. She is another prime example of getting a ban in.
So these are 10 champions i have seen being banned in my elo (Gold 4). Some bans might be silly even though those bans are pretty understandable.
Then we have another statement "You are going to ban out A HOLE ROLL!!!@@22!". Here is the thing, you can encourage someone to ban a champion or a specific role, but the person who holds the ban is the only person who can ban, he has the power to take ur suggestion or ban something he wants to. Also, why do that when those strong champions will still go through? This might make sense IF you know someone is on the other team and you are 5 man queued up, then you ban out his 5 top champions, but how likely will that happen? 6 bans are neat and all, but with champions coming out and more champions are being added to the roster, then it only makes sense that 8 or 10 bans should be implemented.
Another thing someone could say is Pro league. Simple solution. No changes will happen in Pro League.
So Riot, can you tell us your reasoning why 6 bans are sufficient enough is as now? What are your thoughts on 8 bans? 10 bans is pushing it, so 8 is the only way Riot would ever do if it does happen. Do you think that Ranked Players are able to ban out a single role from 8 bans even though that is pretty likely to happen in 4-5 man premade teams and pretty rare to happen in SoloQ. What are YOUR thoughts on this matter?
