Add more bans Riot.

I think next season should definitely have more bans.

They really should just introduce the Dota style of drafting (Funny enough that was what the original plan was for LoL anyway). It goes:

4 bans (2 each side) - 4 picks (2 each side) - 4 bans - 4 picks - 2 bans - 2 picks.

This is a much more dynamic and interesting way to have the drafting phase go, imo. It allows for flexibility in team comps just in case they ban they character you want or need for the comp.

More bans in general = more variety. Tired of seeing the same 10 champions every single competitive game? Well if Riot added in 2 more bans per side the variety would go up like crazy! No more Kalistas or Thresh's or Rek'Sais in competitive! People would be forced to play outside of their comfort zone and whatnot. But yes, there is the issue of banning all one role, but that just simply adds more variety! If a team were to ban Hecarim, Maokai, Lulu, Rumble, and Gnar suddenly BOTH teams would have to pick a 'non-meta' top laner. I think it would be nice seeing some Garen top in a competitive game, or Riven or someone that isn't a tank...

I'm kind of going on a tangent now, and I'm sure these words won't be heard by Riot (sure they've heard them a million times). And I'm not even sure if this forum post is serious or not, but I felt like sharing this opinion even if it was or wasn't.

i think adding 2 more bans wouldn't be a bad idea since the champion pool is growing so much.

Why? I don't think we need anymore bans.

With how long Riot's let it go so far, we should ask for at least 5 bans a side. Never know when Riot will allow us more bans after this hypothetical chance.

Right now, we have about 6-8 REALLY over powered champions (kat, zed, sej, hec, vi, gnar) (and nid is actually on the lower priority atm) so I think either riot working on balancing super bruisers, or adding more bans yes.

Add 4 more bans and allow every player to ban one champion before picking.

Goes well with the very long overdue role queue in ranked.

There should be 4 bans at least. one for each source. Jungle, top, bot, and mid. Each person getting to say who they don't want to lane against.

8 bans in total would save my lp more. ↑↑↑↑↑

I still think everyone should get 1 ban, but I can live with 4 per side. As long as there's more bans, I don't care.

Honestly who needs extra bans right now? theres only like 4 champions right now who should be banned, because this is the best meta ever! Almost everyone is viable with very few being overpowered

I think, for solo and duo queue, both teams should have 5 bans, with each player getting to choose one. That way, each player gets their preference on a ban. For built teams, they could either get one more ban each or just the same 6, because they should be communicating on who to ban.

yeah, definitely need more bans. As time goes on, the ban pool has to increase just as much as the champion pool, proportionally speaking. there are over 100 champs, it's time

I feel like adding more bans just gives people more reason to QQ when the champ they hate isn't banned.
