Xayah almost has a 60% ban rate

Ok cmon now, is Xayah really that strong or are people just bad at countering her? I mean, she has been out for like 2 to 3 weeks, surely only her banrate would start to go down if people started to realize that she wasn't "opverpowered". I mean, Rakan's ban rate is nearly half of Xayahs.

part of that is people not wanting someone first timing her

I think she is strong. Her kit works against what are popular picks now. She really punishes players who try to all in her without proper CC Also, people are banning her because players are taking new champs to ranked without trying to learn

Well yes but still, I don't remember the last time a new champion was out for a couple weeks and still had a very high ban rate.

There was something legitimately wrong with Camille on release though. Xayah is apparently balanced with a 46% win rate.

Her E is really overtuned atm

I think it's because they don't want xayah to be played when everyone's inexperienced with her and results in a loss. Unless it's not ranked it's probably cuz they think she's op.

Got her and I'm not able to play her at all. :(

I think it's really frustrating because I want to try her, but usually she ends up getting banned or picked by the enemy team. When I do have the chance to play her, though, the enemy team has a better sense of strategy than mine. :(

She has really good zoning lane phase with her feathers so if I had to guess its an annoyance thing, like with Caitlyn and her traps.
