If you dislike a champion or think they are overpowered, ban them.

Your bans are votes to nerf champions. If you think a champion should be nerfed, then simply ban them. If players began to ban champions like LeeSin MasterYi Zed Ahri Riven then Riot would inevitably nerf them. Put your bans where your mouths are and you will accomplish far more than empty complaints.

To clarify, I am not saying these champions necessarily need nerfs. I am saying that bans are a much better way to convince Riot to nerf something than boards QQ. Certain champions attract more than their share of whining, yet people aren't willing to ban them.

Did you just really put ahri there >.< She is so easy to destroy.

"shes so easy to destroy" despite having pretty much the most mobility in the game, you still think she's easy to kill?

She is easy to destroy, simple. a little bit of CC. same thing with Yi, Udyr and all the other "op" champions lol.

I wish I could but Rito keeps making me 1st/2nd pick and witness helplessly as my teams ban Kindred leaving Fiora open [slayer-jinx-unamused]

Why do those need nerfs?

Hemulen Magi1 votes

I didn't say they did, but they attract masses of complaints. If people banned them instead of whining, they would be nerfed. If people don't think they are worth banning, then they can't think that they are all that problematic.

Ban rates won't really get things nerfed. especially low ELO ban rates.

That's not necessarily true. I ban Blitzcrank every game but I don't think he needs nerfs. He's just too difficult for me, and often times my team as well, to play against.

He's not nearly as bad as Blitz. I'm Bronze, so most of the time ADCs aren't able to capitalize on stuff like Thresh's hooks and lanterns. Blitz, however, practically spoonfeeds a kill to his ADC most of the time. I've always suspected Blitz's hook hitbox to be a bit wonky compared to Thresh's.

Blitz is also the #1 picked support in Bronze, so it's no question as for who to ban for me.

Thresh pulls his victims closer to him.

Blitz pulls his victims directly to him.

The difference between them is obvious.

Unfortunately, doesn't matter what we say or do in game. Riot games has nothing to do with their own game now. They will not and cannot change it. Tencent owns everything in Riot, so as long as they're making money off of broken bullshit, skins and ward skins they'll never change the game. If we really want the game to change, we need to stop playing it and get their dumb ass Asian moronic mongoloid assholes in line and make them OUR bitch. Otherwise LoL is going to remain the cesspool of a money grab until it eventually dies due to the Chinese Dictatorship that is Tencent. Speak with your wallets, not through the game. That's the only way to get through to these primitive bastards.
