I play a lot of normal drafts, and one of the biggest problems is when a teammate bans your pick. Not only does it suggest that this person has no interest in team work, but it's pretty darned rude. I suggest riot either punishes players for banning their teammates picks, or removes the punishment not locking in. In doing so at least you would not have to play with that player anymore
When your team mate is last pick and they want the OP ekko, but you can't trade it because no one else owns the champ, damn right imma ban it , not giving the enemy champ the chance to take that champ.
If what I'm playing doesn't have much counterplay that I'm worried about, the next move is to ban something super OP like Ekko, but if that's done for sure your jungle Lucian is getting bant. It's not personal, I just feel like you should make friends and play 42% winrate stuff with your friends. People only do this stuff to have a built in excuse for losing and to cushion their ego.
right now i see a lot of top lane tank ekkos (thanks lcs) if my team isnt first pick i ban ekko, even when one of my mates wanted to play him sorry bro im not taking the risk of the enemy stomping you with that ekko
