Please increase the champion ban amount
I know I'm not the first person to post this. I haven't checked but I'm sure its in here some where.
Someone advertised that Illaoi is the 128(?) champion to be released, holy Jeebus give us more bans.
The 6 ban rate was there back when there were half that amount of champions. Near the end of S5 the bans became a lesser of 10 evils, between Darius, Garen, Tahm Kench, Gangplank, Soraka, Kindred, Mord, Veiger, Xin, and on and on. The top banned champs used to be devourer mains (who are still REALLY strong) but they got shadowed by the new sexy versions of the juggernauts. All the mean while my friends and I jokingly passed around screen shot after screen shot of Tahm Kench doing the most damage in the game despite never having a damage item (top/jg). Then Kindred got released and started RUNNING through the top lane picks (if you haven't had a chance to try it, its pretty amazing especially with new items like Phantom Dancer). Until people noticed Veiger's Q can stack twice as fast as old Veiger's Q.
I dread to think of the ADDITIONAL bans necessary when ranked rolls around this season. Graves, Miss fortune, still fother-muckin Soraka, Sona is pretty good that keystone mastery change didn't affect tryn much (again try it and make it your main its freelo until the return of ignite top), illaoi is pretty oppressive with certain team comps. Poppy is going to shut down 60% of the champ pool with e and make any fight a 4v5.
I mean god damn, its good that riot is keeping it fresh and I REALLY appreciate the changes I think they're alot of fun but give all 5 champs in champ select a ban choice (if you haven't heard the new ranked champ select gives 1 choice to each of the last 3 on both sides), at least you might start seeing more champs in the ranked arena rather then the 4 that didn't make the ban list THIS time.
Frankly I miss the time I would ban Yasuo or Vayne, not because I was afraid to play against them but because if you were some op son of a stitch, gosu hidden apprentice, you wouldn't be here with me in this elo.
