There should be a warning message when someone attempts to ban a champion that an ally selected

Yes, there are times when people intentionally ban a champion even if they see their ally having it selected (afraid that the enemy would pick it, etc) but I would say the vast majority of times a ban like this happens, the person banning wasn't fully paying attention and just banned their normal ban. A simple warning message saying that this champion was already selected by an ally would probably fix most of these accidents from happening. The only problem I see with this is if someone runs out of time to ban. This can be fixed by simply letting the ban go through in the event someone runs out of time on the warning message.

Yeah, I'm with the other guy. I don't want to see a champ for a reason, mostly because said champ is OP cancer and not fun to play against. And if it's not fun for my team to play against, it's not fun for the opponents to play against either. I'd much rather the match be decided on your teammates' and opppnents' skills than on whether or not someone carried the game with a massively OP champ.

But does it hurt to add a warning message? Literally no drawback as far as I can see.

There is a draw back. You know those last second bans people pull? You couldn't do that because of some stupid annoying message. This is an uneeded change that only affects people who don't look before acting. Thats on them and shouldn't be made an annoyance on others.

I already addressed that issue in the post. This is the problem with boards nowadays, no one reads anything past the title.

Its not missed. Riot hasn't reverted that change because they don't want it to go through without interaction. You would HAVE to actually ban it. They don't give us the benefit of the doubt now so why in any logical sense would they for something like this?

This isn't a problem with the boards as much as people who don't think an entire idea through and why things are the way they are.

Okay maybe I need to clarify. When you press the ban button, that's when the message pops up, not when you select the champion. Does it make sense now? I'm not sure how to word it to compensate for even lower IQ levels.

Attempting to insult anyone who disagrees with you is never a way to get people to listen. You seem blinded by your own idea and won't take well. You can try to "compensate" all you want, but that won't make it an even better idea. Its a useless bit of work for Riot to deal with people who already don't pay attention in champ select.

If Riot were to ever actually put this in they would take it on with one of the check boxes to remove it like all other newb information. It would be checked for most players and ultimately be wasted.

It doesn't hurt, no, but it would be unnecessary programming on the developer's part. The idea is that if you're playing a game, you should be engaged enough to know what you're doing.

You sound accusatory when stating that people should be engaged enough to know what's going on. I, for one, always pay attention. I'm talking about the people who don't pay attention. You can't really fix that.
