Better Ban System @OneForAll (and other special maps)

Buttered Butter·10/24/2015, 8:13:48 PM·1 votes·311 views

Rather than having perma bans and even choice bans, why not have a "top ten" from the previous day.

These special maps get really repetitive. When only six champs can be ban and there are twelve that are completely overpowered, you end up playing the same six champs over and over and over. A better system would be a "top ten" or even "top twelve" for the day. Whatever the previous day's top champs were, those champs are perma ban for the next day. ALL champs should ALWAYS be unlocked for ALL of these special matches to accommodate.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not asking for "balance", I'm asking for "variety". There are an insane number of champs in this game, but when it comes to special matches like OneForAll... you'd never know it.

Also, 20 seconds to choose a champ after bans is pretty horrible when you're not in voice chat with people.

I dunno how to answer your poll. Yes, I like seeing variety, but I do see variety in my One for All games. Out of 11 matches, I've seen 19 unique champions. I've also never seen any champ more than twice (Darius, Bard, and Vel'koz).

Ashe vs. Darius Zyra vs. Swain Darius vs. Heimerdinger Blitzcrank vs. MasterYi KogMaw vs. Lucian Yasuo vs. Morgana Velkoz vs. Bard Kassadin vs. Velkoz Varus vs. JarvanIV Volibear vs. Kennen TahmKench vs. Bard

I would definitely like to see something done to push pick diversity in these modes.

I was thinking more like some kind of cooldown when you play a champion. So after you play a champ you can't vote for it for X amount of time. That way it wouldn't totally exclude people from getting to at least try a champion they want.

I actually meant to put this in Gameplay & Mechanics... swear I chose that. :(
