This seems like a pretty obvious thing to do with no downsides. I've been in many games where either someone doesn't notice that their teammate is planning on picking a certain champ or is just being an asshole/troll and bans them anyways, so it would be great if this just weren't possible.

What if the enemy team has first pick and your last-pick teammate decides to troll your team by hovering whatever recent Champion release happens to start off overtuned?
Trolls will exist regardless of whether or not bans trump picks. Bans coming first just ensures that players can have better control over their match overall, even if it does have room for abuse - it'd be the same way if pick intent trumped bans, just without the better control over their match.

I feel like the trolls who would hover a strong champ on the off-chance that the enemy picks it are vastly outnumbered by the ones who ban the champs other people are hovering.
Hovering a champion that others don't want in the game only has a potential impact on the game. Banning the champion your teammate was intending to play simply out of spite will impact the game.

It's bad version of an argument but that doesn't matter. It's been been brought up over and over countless times. People get to use their ban on what they want and going over it again for another 3 dozen threads because someone's mad they're last pick and Sett got banned but he wants things his way, that hasn't changed anything.

are you for real? you can't think of ANYTHING negative about this?
privateDoorknob3 votesa pretty easy way to avoid getting your champ banned is to not hover a champ until after the banning phase.
GatekeeperTDS2 votesSounds like you don't want to play draft pick.
There are other game modes for you.
