PSA: Player's That Ban Allied Champions
It is offensive to ban your teammate's champion.

That doesn't mean I'm not going to do it.
I see this being more of an issue for serious off-meta picks.
Just to be blunt, I climbed to Gold with Taric, Jax, and Quinn in the top lane. When picking Taric, despite being an EXCELLENT full-tank duelist that even gets damage from building tanky, I’ve had both intentional bans of my champions and accusations of trolling and threats of reprisal through reporting. I recall one game where the Jungler refused to gank my lane because of this, and it got to the point where the ENEMY TEAM had to stick up for me. Ironically enough, I was doing better than anyone else on my team that game.
So yeah. I know it’s not always obvious whether they banned your champ due to not looking carefully or stuff, but if they’re doing it to impose their own idea of what’s viable on to you, that should be punishable.
No its not learn to play other things.
Its reportable. Report it
it isn't "offensive"...it's at worst "trolling" but even then, is that not the intention most of the time and if they wanna troll are they gonna do it regardless of the bans.
