Can we find a way to crack down on people trolling by banning a champ we are going to play?

If no, please leave a comment as to why.

Thanks GLHF you :)

"trolling"

sorry but I do not care what you want to play. I will ban whatever champion is strong or I just do not want to deal with, regardless of what team the champion is. Learn to play more than one champion

No I agree with you, but if you ban a person for the sole reason of being a dic% head that's different.

I had someone on my team ban Nami after i selected them to show that's who i was going to be. I understand everyone has champions they hate playing against or even with, because the ks or mechanics aren't where they should be.

Thanks for the feed back. GLHF :)

Ok, so what's your metric for whether or not someone was trying to be a dick head vs just banning what they didn't want to put up with? How would you automate such a system?

They would do a tracker and follow your percentage of champs you ban, and add a report option for it.

IE: If you ban yi, aatrox, trynd and jinx. then our of nowhere ban a ziggs or nami. ( champs with a low ban %) and you get reported there should be a penalty

I'm not saying every time someones bans a champ that you were going to play, that they should be punished.

What I am saying is, if someone deliberately bans your pick. There are 200 + or - champs, and only 10 get banned, of those 10 about 4 are champs that get banned almost every game. the other 6 or so is what ever. I have had only two ranked games where all of my champs for that role where banned. It was weird, but I used thresh and moved on. :)

That's subject to change patch by patch. Many people who never banned Irelia started to when she got reworked. Many people change their bans if they got stomped pretty hard in the previous match. Some players prefer to ban what counters the champion they want to play that match, which again could change patch to patch or after a hard match.

If you think teammates are trying to ban your champ, you could hold off hovering it until after the ban phase.

PS: 140 champs, not 200

All good points, just an idea, glad its getting some action. Thank you for the feed back and I feel a little better about this and less salty. It's just frustrating and am trying to get awareness our there.

PS: 140 champs, not 200 - i did day + or - lol

In the grand scheme of things, its not a huge deal i guess but for someone it may be a much needed game. I have NEVER seen someone ban a Nami, and guy was like " nami sucks use teemo to supp me" than banned nami so i couldnt use her.
