If You Could Have A Second Ban, Who Would It Be?

Lets say, by the grace of god, magic, or Riot, you are given the ability to ban a second champion, but the champion you choose will be permanently chosen to fill that second slot, meaning they will be automatically banned every Draft or Ranked game you play. Who would you choose?

For me, it's a tough choice between Blitzcrank and Yasuo

In one hand we have Blitzrcrank, who, as somebody who only plays support, I despise and have never successfully laned against in the 4 years that I've played League. His grab is bullshit with a worse hitbox than Lux's or Morgana's Qs. All his abilities have 100% ratios, with an ultimate that's on a 40 second cooldown, at first rank. You can never run from him, because even if you dodge the grab, he just speeds up then knocks you up with an empowered auto, then by any miracle should you escape that, his grab is back up, and then you die.

In the other, we have Yasuo, a champion that has consistently been one of the most difficult, frustrating champions to deal with, that has an overloaded kit and some of the most obnoxious abilities in game(LOOKING AT YOU WINDWALL). This champion is the very reason why I don't play mid, and gave up on ever being a mid laner. Even when he's not meta or not a strong pick he's still by far the most irritating champion to have to face, and should you win lane against him, he can easily get back from falling behind.

In the end, I'd have to go Blitzcrank, purely because having a good Yasuo player on your team is almost always a victory, at least from my personal experience.

Thresh . No question. Can't deal with it. He will walk away from 20+ mistakes in lane, 19 of which you can't properly punish him for. If he catches you making 1 mistake, you're dead. Lane over.

Can't do it.

I'm not even sure who I want to ban most the rn. Everyone I was banning, (Zoe Morgana Fiddlesticks ) got slapped with nerfs, so I kinda wanna see how playing vs them feels.

I guess if I'm jungling, I'd want to ban both Morgana and Rengar since they have things in their kit that directly counter crucial parts of Eve's kit.

I guess I could always fall back to Thresh or Ekko as my last result bans because I just don't like playing vs them.

Definitely Yasuo. I don't care if he is strong or weak, he is abhorrent and I never want to see him in any of my games.

Zed.

This is partly because people keep saying Yasuo, and partly because Zed also embodies the most toxic aspects an assassin could get. Out of his 3 basic abilities, 2 of them are AOE damage and the third increases those AOE. One of those damage skills is a skill shot but it's not hard to land by any means. His third basic skill not only increases his AOE and damage, but grants him teleportation safety that requires no commitment.

His ultimate is basically his W on steroids and further decreases his need to commit, enabling him to land 2 nukes and duskblade before leaving the enemy to die to the big burst of damage. Oh, and in doing that last part, he gains additional AD so he can do it more easily.

I have rarely felt outplayed when a Zed pull his usual stunts. So it amazes me that people actually believe they're legitimately doing that on him.
