The ban phase mechanic is considered to be more important (i.e. higher priority) than the pick phase mechanics, and for good reason (you can't have the ban phase after the pick phase, it wouldn't make sense). As such, it is permissible for anyone to ban any champion they want to, and they don't have to justify it to you. It may suck if it feels like they did it to spite you, but keep in mind that in a draft pick game, you're expected to know how to play more than one champion and not necessarily get your preferred role/champ. The best way to ensure you get to play your champion is in blind.
