Apparently, banning Yasuo/Riven/Lee Sin/Zed is considered a "Bronze move".
Might as well ban Aatrox every game. Like, who the fk is considered a worthy ban according to the logic of "high elos" nowadays?

Rank shaming is meaningless. Don't worry about what people say about your ban choices. It's your choice, not theirs. If they can't compose a meaningful argument to convince you then they obviously don't deserve a say in your decision.
Only correct choices: anyone your team feels they would have a hard time against.
Yasuo is easy to counter. The dude has no escape except to dash around the minion wave like an idiot waiting for something to happen. The only reason I'd ever ban yasuo is to not get one on my team.
Riven Mains are pretty annoying high elo so that ban is pretty ok. They can either snowball lane or go 0/5 and farm it doesn't matter. They ult, flash on third q, hydra and w, then ult and that's your entire team's health bar. pretty cancerous kit if you ask me.
There seems to be a lot of Lee Sin op threads going around. I don't really "see it". I'm worried more about a Kha'Zix, Nunu, or Ivern who basically control the game. Banning Lee is fine though it all depends on your point of view.
There's no excuse for banning Zed however. Right now this champion is pretty garbage. Terrible laning phase and even worse late game. There's no good trade off on this champion. You bully zed till he hits lvl 3, Then once he uses w to try to harass you or cs you continue bullying him out of lane. Late game his ult is obsolete. Most mages are tanky enough to survive his entire kit and they always have the option to build zhonyas. Adcs either one shot zed, gapclose away to their team, or build a defensive item or lifesteal all his damage away. Plus when it gets really Late game, Supports shield you enough with fotm, redemption, locket, and others to where you can stand still and let zed do his max dmg combo, and you'll survive.
Ban Shaming is pretty dumb though just mute people once you're in game. However try to see where their frustration comes from zed and yas are pretty dumb bans if you ask me.
- I ban it to don't get it into my team, useless champion in my opinion.
- Would ban it to don't get it into my team aswell, as I mostly queue up as top/mid, even if enemies pick it i can roflstomp her.
- Has good early, but his late is almost non-existent. Also, learn how to 
and you're good to go.
- Zed OTPs like LL Stylish destroy games with zed, but 90% of zed players can't even win their lane, not worth to waste ban on him.
IDGAF. I ban vayne every single game until she either has %health damage or true damage. Not fucking both of them.
Simply put, people complained about champs, high elo players pointed out they were only good at low level play, and the high elo wannabes refuse to admit they can't face it because they want to seem tough. Although if I'm mid, I'm not banning Yas, it's too much fun to wreck an arrogant snobby one XD As for the other 3, zed isn't the best right nowbut if someone's good with him he WILL crush you like an insect, LeeSin needs to be further mutilated(physically, fuck that bastard), and riven is really hit or miss in skill.
That's why you inform yourself? You ban OP shit that win games in your elo. Does Lee Sin do well in silver? No. better off banning darius or master yi.
And seriously, many high elos have said it, including Tobias Fate, "Banning Yasuo is a waste of a ban. Perma ban leblanc instead" (Pretty sure he said that before the large leblanc nerfs but still). You don't play ranked to have fun. You play ranked to win. How do you win? By banning OP shit or counterpicks. (Ex: Ban Vlad if you play syndra {Assuming vlad is good and picked})
id say graves, leblanc, ivern, lee and idk who else
Nobody. Nobody is a correct choice for most people.
That said, just ban who you do not want to play against and dont care about what people say. I personally ban Warwick if im support, Blitzcrank if im not in bott lane, or Darius if im wanting to go Morde top....
That Darius armor ignore :'(
