More bans would make the game 100x better

Indeed, we have way more champs now, it's only natural to ask for more bans also.

You made me realize the point to the OP's request. There are now so many champions that six bans still allow for at least five or more champs that are considered broken by many. And if it's a question of "lrn2play", why have bans at all? Either add more or just force people to play against whatever the enemy picks.

Bans exist to force strategic play where certain tactics are made available or the opposite depending on who is banned.

The game should start in Champ Select, Riot just don't really get it.

More bans is good.

My question though is what does more bans do for you? Does it make it so you can ban more things that you can't handle playing? If that is the reason, then more bans aren't really the problem and it is either a problem of champion balance or you needing to learn to play better. I do agree that EVENTUALLY there need to be more bans, but I don't think it is necessary now.

That and for strategy reasons.

Dude, there was 3 bans per team when league came out, and now, it's still at 3 per team. That is of course, despite the amount of champions greatly increasing (like trippled?). It's only logical to ask for more bans. Then we will see for ourselves if it really made the game better or not.

The problem with adding more bans is that all it does is allow for more "OP" things to be taken away and then current "weaker" champions will just fill that void, making it so only more champions got removed without it actually contributing anything. Also it makes target banning a particular role even MORE brutal now then it was before. This is really only a problem at higher levels of play or the pro level since people known for smaller pools will get targeted. Also for lower levels of play, it doesn't really offer much imo since things like Katarina and Amumu can wreck people despite not being OP.
