Why are teammate allowed to ban your pre-picked champion?

Seriously why the fk are your team mate allowed to ban the champion you pre picked, this is the reason why I never pre pick my champion because of stupid trolls who doesn't get their lane. Still amazed Riot are to lazy to implement something as simple as not allowing your team mate to ban the champion you are going to pick. Reason pre pick and showing the champion you are going to play sucks because your team can already troll you in champion select.

Only champion I ever ban is top because it's a win or lose situation where we have no front line or tank.

They allow it because the enemy team could also have that same champion picked and your teammate doesn't want the enemy team to get it.

That's easy to explain with a simple LCS notation.

Why does red side always ban LeBlanc, Camille, and Rengar? Because Blue side picks first.

If you want to play a highly picked/banned champion and you aren't first pick, you have no real expectation of seeing that champion come your way. Leaving an OP champion available is just to dangerous.

I'm red side and I see you're last pick hovering kha'zix or rengar or whatever pick/ban champion. I still wouldn't ban your pick, but I can understand if someone does.

Because sometimes you have a 80% loserate when teamed with a certain champ because you simply can't work with the playstyle. So you ban it. Because reason rarely works.
