PSA: Check your allies' intent picks before banning!

I can't believe I have to say this, but check the intent picks of your team before banning. It's honestly beyond irritating when someone wants to play a certain champion only to have it banned by Mr Magoo over here, if only their eyes could move slightly to the left then up and down a little.

if you wanna play swain/lucian/any op pick, and you're not first pick, i'm banning your champ

So is it any champ you deem op? Or is it any champ the people deemed op? The champs that annoy you? The champs that can be easily countered but you refuse because in 5 games people messed up?

Maybe
Probably not.
Yea champs that are easily counterd like pre nerf devour ww and master yi pre nerf are pretty easy to counter. But that didn't stop their winrate to hit 55 % for yi and 60%+ for warwic. Some champs have easy counters doesn't mean they are not ban worthy.

As for banning someones champ. If you have a champion who has a 25% banrate you should make your Intentions clear. You probably know that swain and lucian are contested picks. So think for yourself and don't just hover one of these. Ask for fp / letting a champ throug.

Imo you can ban anything anytime including banning out teammates. It might not help your winrate and will make you enemy's. But it's not against the summoner's code

this has happened to my friends and i more in the past 4 days then it ever has, people find a game, look when they have to go back on the game and go look at facebook or something, when they come back they either automatically ban a champ wich half of the time is a allied champ they have been sitting on or they wait till the last few seconds and "panic pick" as they like to call it wich is more frustrating because they were even looking at the screen longer,luckily i stopped maining one champion but its still very annoying and %%%%ish to ban an allied champ just because you are lazy, like you said just to move your eyes a little bit, what my friends and i do and you can call this rude or whatever we either ban his champ or choose it before he does,wich results in him getting salty but its not like we care...
