Can we remove the ability to ban a champion another player on your team has already shown?

this issue does not need fixing

bans have always had priority over picks

if you have last pick and I have first ban, and the pick you have hovered is maybe a new hero that's still OP broken, maybe its a hero that I know just beats my ass every time I play against him. You can bet i'm banning that guy every time, no matter if he's hovered or not. And in no world should I or anyone else be punished for doing so.

I get that as part of the issue. Do you have a suggestion for a solution that resolves both issues?

And what is to stop me from hovering a "must pick" champion to prevent it from being banned, thus ensuring the enemy team has first pick to pick an OP champion?

You can always play another champion if it is banned. If other people are banning your champions, it's likely because you're not taking the time to explain to them. Get into lobby and say "yo, I have an X winrate as this, it's really good -mid/late/whatever- game and does a lot of -cc/damage/whatever-".

Keep in mind that they have the right to say "yo, I don't want to play with this champion in my game". Their right to ban it supersedes your desire to play it. Period.

First off, why would you hover an OP champion if you weren't going to play it? Of course if my champion gets banned I have other picks that I don't mind playing and actually enjoy, but I do not believe that those bans should come from your own team. Your desire to play the game supersedes someone else's desire for you to uninstall, hence why the latter encounters disciplinary action.

So I lock yasuo, them don't pick him and you don't get to ban him. It trades one troll for another.

This is only an issue if you know me and my preferred bans personally, as you can't know my preferred bans prior to the ban phase otherwise.

Sorry bro, no Yasuos will exsists in my games, whether it is ally or enemy, hovered or not.

Sounds like you've never learned to play against him and never will. Sucks, doesn't it?

Why would you? How else would I ban my inting top laners teemo.

You shouldn't know he's an inting player unless you know him personally, and in that case I recommend you stop playing with them.

Normally people just dodge and wait out the 5 mins if teir champ they hovered get banned the other most of the time they run it down mid it's a way to spice up the game lol

I don't enjoy making dodge timers a necessary part of ones gaming experience. Inting is a bannable offence.

The player who wanted to play Yasuo and you banned it is lose lose situation, he trolls in both cases.

Teemo is annoying but it just seems like a ban waste... I don't ban my teammate's picks out of courtesy but now that I think about it, if I hover above Darius, would my teammates be less likely ban him? Just let me lane against him, you're not even top. I don't hover above champions I'm going to use so my teammates don't ban them, especially if they're less popular picks like Yuumi. Honestly, you should probably do the same. Kog'Maw is such a random ban, highly doubt you'll see people banning him unless someone is spying on your profile.

Hence why I don't even hover him anymore. It is a real problem though, even if there are workarounds, particularly if you main a champion that is frequently played or banned.

You shouldn't have to justify your pick or persuade your team to allow you it. It isn't their choice to make.

Keep in mind that they have the right to say "yo, I don't want to play with this champion in my game".

This "right" you speak of- where is it enumerated?
