"You are handicapping your chance at winning because you ban the champion you hate playing against instead of the OP ones"

No, I'm not. I'm using the ban system the way it was intended. To ban something you don't want to play against.

Here's a little part of the 10 ban Devblog:

>YOU GET A BAN, AND YOU GET A BAN Our ultimate goals for 10 simultaneous bans are: to make champ select fairer for everyone, to give everyone more control over the ban phase, and if possible, to lower the time it takes to get to game. We didn’t go with the split draft format from professional games (six bans, six picks, then four bans, four picks) because we want to even out individual players’ power in champ select. When we looked at the perks of the system currently implemented in pro play, the split draft (particularly when you know your own team’s strategies and opponents’ playstyles) just didn’t copy-paste well to regular play. Check out the announcement post for more info, or keep reading below. **Don’t wanna lane against Blitz? Take him out. Feel like running Tryndamere top? Ban Teemo. **It also doesn’t matter where you land in the champ select order – everyone has an equal chance to ban something they don’t want to see. You won’t be able to ban the same thing as a teammate, but both teams can ban the same champion.

You want to ban the OP pick? Go ahead, your choice. I will ban who I want. OP or not. 10 bans don't get implemented for some douchebags to somehow get a second ban for themselves, it's so everybody can ban who they want.

So you can disappear with your "git gud" BS or that "ban who I want" mentality right to where you came from. You won’t? Then "git gud" and learn to play against the champions you ban.

You didn't bring up a valid point, that's not exactly what I would call "couldn't compete".

Your entire post was based on "git gud" while it wasn't the problem.

Wanna know how retarded the git gud argument sounds?

Person A: "I hate apples so I don't buy them." Person B: "LEARN TO LIKE THEM YOU IDIOT!!!!1111!!"

Your entire posts WERE based around the git gud joke there's no denying it.

And my comparison stands. You're just trying to fool yourself by saying that I'd try to manipulate with it.

I'd suggest that you stay away from my posts and threads from now on. You're not worth arguing with

I'm handicapping myself by not banning what I deem tilting to me. Sure, Fizz might be too strong right now, but at least I can prevent a lot of his damage if I dodge the fish.
