Currently, it takes a new player 12 weeks ( assuming not a single champ is seen twice in a cycle) to have a chance to play all of the current champions. This number will keep going up as champions are released( albiet slowly)

What would peoples thoughts be on increasing the number of champions on free week to 12-14?

I definitely think 12 free champs would be acceptable. Especially considering that there are always repeats in order to make sure there's a variety of roles filled by each free week. (There aren't nearly as many supports as other roles, or marksman, etc)

And increase to 8 bans in draft pick.

I think adding yet more rotating free champs would make the game more confusing for brand new players. It might help people who've been playing for a few months and are mechanically used to the game but haven't built up their stable of champions yet, but brand new players who picked the game up 15 minutes ago have a lot of confusing, ill-explained options as it is.

I was thinking more than just 12-14. Maybe 15-20?

(I personally like 20. More is better, after all.)
