Stop banning 1st rounds pick intent

If you think the champion is strong, and you are blue side...and the first pick of the entire game has that champ as their pick intent. WHY WOULD YOU BAN IT ON THEM.

Seriously, you think Tahm Kench is strong so you are banning him, but first pick of the entire game wants to play Tahm top on your team? Hey maybe let him have that pick and ban something else? My last game it happened to me, my pick intent was Morgana as first pick blue side, last ban on my team bans Morgana saying she is too strong...hello? And it isn't just that it happens to me, it happens to others as well when I am in pick/ban. I know a lot of people are doing it just to troll (my game he actually locked blitz adc, not support, but adc)

What is the point of pick intent if not to prevent things like this from happening e.e

You see, there are no OP champs. Its players who make champs look OP. If someone in your team wants to pick champion because he thinks that champion is OP, most of the time he will probably fail on him. Safest course of actions is to ban it. Why do u think useless champs like Illaoi have such high banrate and such shitty winrate? Most people decided they dont want people on their team to pick it and lose game.

If a player wants a champ, they should be allowed to choose that champ. There is no real arguement you can make. It has nothing to do with it being 'OP' or not, but whether that person is comfortable with that champion.

That's just simply not true. There are definitely champions that are stronger than others.

Becuase half the time people don't actually pick the champion their intent shows so I ignore intent and just ban the champs i dont want in the game anyway. If it happened to be one you were actually going to pick, oops my bad, better safe than sorry.

I ban rengar regardless because I don't want him on my team and I don't want him on the enemy team. Plus, people are dumb and refuse to do trades.
