This is the problem with predetermined first pick in solo Q. whichever side DOESNT have first pick are forced to ban chogath, the side that doesnt have first pick can't take the risk of cho not being banned.
Maybe first pick in champ select should choose red or blue side AFTER the banning phase, or hide who has first pick or something so that both teams truly have equal bans.
Jbels2 votesPeople would just permaban chogath. You would be supplementing informed banning for gamble banning. Let's say red side doesn't know it's red side and they leave up Cho, hoping they're actually blue side. Blue side finds out that they are in fact first pick, and now red side is at an instant disadvantage because they gambled on having first pick. Blue side gets Cho, and red side gets frustrated
Some Noob Dude1 votesYup, blue side wins more often than red side.
KoKoboto1 votesYeah but if you first pick Cho the enemy will just pick Shen and some jungler to camp the Cho and then GG Cho.

He's less of an issue in top-lane.
