10 bans = 100% banrate on some champs (Coming from a Yas main, let me explain.)

DiamondDCIW··3 votes·2,239 views

So, with a 10 ban system coming, hated champions such as Yasuo, or Zed will most likely be 100% banned all the time. Now before you go saying, diversify your champion pool, or don't be an OTP with Yasuo, that is just my problem. I have diversified my champion pool. Orianna, Azir (Whom Riot raped with nerfs), Lissandra, and other champs who I'm still learning. So, the deal with being a Yasuo OTP is the fact that you can't OTP someone who already is hard enough to pick even with the current 6 ban system, let alone 10 bans.

I'll pick Yasuo if he isn't banned, that's how it goes. If I can pick him, I will, but for the most part, I can't. When I was in bronze 5 the past year, and climbed to plat 5 in the exact same season, with Yasuo. I played him really well, and still do. But then the next year (season 6), i had SIGNIFICANTLY less games with him compared to season 5, henceforth, I climbed less than I had calculated. With 10 bans, I'm not saying I won't climb, who knows maybe I'll just main fucking Orianna. But I am saying that, with 10 bans, 100% ban rate on some champs kinda sucks ass. I will never see a Yasuo, Zed, Vayne, or Syndra ever again in ranked. Let alone OP champs, imagine if we had this earlier, early season 5 warwick would have been perma banned, juggernaut rework 100% banned, any sated junglers before they changed it, ANY SIGNIFICANT BUFFS TO ANY CHAMPS you wouldn't see them in ranked until they get Azir'd. It would differ on elo too. Oh you are a gold riven main, good fucking bye. Imagine if you couldn't play your main for an entire patch because they got a buff that made them 100% ban worthy. Goodbye to your main for an entire patch, or if Rito doesn't touch them for 7 patches.

Thanks for reading my opinion and I'd hope to see yours. Now if you excuse me, I'm gonna go make some mac N cheese. -Diamond

I mean don't be surprised that your teammate runs it down mid if you do this (banning their pick)

running it down mid tyler1 style isn't okay, but banning a champion at all rates even when your teammates wants it is just a great way to lose LP

Yeah, I didn't ban Yasuo because a teammate wanted to play him. Went 1-7. I will continue to ban Yasuo every chance I get. Trolls are going to troll regardless because it isn't punishable.

What about ranked?

Maybe it'll be a good thing. It'll bring those champs to the spotlight so riot will tweak them so that their mains will get to play them again, rather than sitting in the borderline pick-ban bin for months.

100% banrate on Yasuo is exactly what I want.

Yes and that's a good thing. A champion being permabanned regardless of state of balance is a strong indication that something is inherently wrong with that champion's kit. Maybe if a champion like Yasuo is permabanned that will force Riot to do something about it and rework him already.

and therefore have more champ diversity in the game which what you all want

Not really, then you just have a bunch of sleeper champs who are just as annoying just not as overly played.

I wouldn't consider Ahri Lux Fizz or Janna sleeper; good sure, sleeper not really

I wouldn't have an issue with vayne if you'd let me pink her again instead of having to have a champ that gives truesight of her (Fizz Kled Illaoi LeeSin) you get the point

rivens pretty meh, annoying, nothin' new.

I have mixed feelings about katarina and poppy, katarinas fairly easy to play around, poppy just needs a slight damage nerf if you ask me

Lux/Ahri/Janna/Fizz are not 'omfg so op' - that's why they're sleeper. They're consistently high winrate champions (Maybe not Fizz as much), meaning they require the least amount of effort for the most results. They've been solid picks, and are just under the ridiculously annoying champions that people ban every game (Lee, Yasuo, Camille, Vi etc).

The whole fact you acknowledge they're good, but fail to understand HOW good they are is exactly what makes them sleeper in the first place.

Riot needs to not create disgusting champs then. Yasuo is considered one of if not the most overpowered champ in league. When a champ is considered godly or just grossly antifun to play against it'll get knocked out.

Lul is aint op bud. If you think so then somethinggs wrong

Ad Vitam Aeterna1 votes

Yeah, the guy considered the second best player in the world only to Faker, who a tremendous amount of people think highly of his opinion is wrong about yasuo.

oh you've been silver for 2 straight seasons, your opinion makes sense now.

Yea its gonna suck. Thanks yas hate bandwagon :/ you could just oh idk learn how to counter one of the easiest countered champs. Thats not of my business though, my opinion doesnt mean shit cause im a " dirty yasuo main".

TequilaZombie2 votes

Well, Yas is annoying. He mitigates your poke with his shield and when it's on CD he blocks it with Windwall. If he gets slightly ahead in lane, you're pretty much a free kill, as he can towerdive without getting in the turret's range. Not to mention the 10 seconds of "you can't go near your minions to farm" every 3rd Q.

He's not really OP and can be dealt with, but he's just too much of a pain in the ass to not be banned. Against him you have to micro manage and time stuff much more than you would against other champions while you're even or ahead, and has to basicly giveup farm if he gets any lead. He's seriously annoying to face.

Not necesarily.

The 10 ban system has the bans split up by picks.

So if you're first pick and he isn't banned initially, you can get him then.

I mean bans are the best way to counter strong champions. It wouldn't be a bug deal if the game was perfectly balanced, but it's not. There's champions like yasuo who have very few hard counters, and those hard counters still can't catch him and kill him.
