Please bare in mind this is not really considering ranked team draft where you can communicate prior to the game. when people pick their bans they are considering which team comps they can play well in and banning the ones that counter them. bear in mind you have just 1 min to discuss this with your team, and I am almost always going into games with bad runes when joining solo que. the total number of comps a team can play together is limited by which champions are known by the players individually. if there is democracy in which ones they are choosing then all have a say and so there is a smaller subset left to choose from making it easier to pick. so why not have a system where all 5 players vote for each of the bans, and the most common one will be the first ban. this way the team is automatically communicating which champs they want banned without having to explain themselves etc. all have a say this way so that more of the unfavorable teamcomps have been banned out.

I think every one should just get a ban.

U know wot it will sometimes cause 0 bans in situations where they just don't have a shared mind

i understand where you are coming from but that's only because i have not discussed how the voting would actually work. but glad you understand the need for this! :) the system that would work perfectly with this is simply the picking mechanic for hexakill mode last y ear. since there are 5 people, there is always a decider vote where the highest vote will get picked. if u see 4 other different picks, you know u can pick the one you dislike the most or risk entering a chance based ban. i personally think there will be a lot more agreement once you see what your team mates would like to ban. I will give an example. I really dislike playing with rek'sai in my team at the moment. not really because i think it is op etc, but because I don't really know how to fit him into teamfights, and what he does best etc... so I would vote for him to be banned first. it might be he won't get banned, but at least my team has realized that i don't really like/understand rek sai. it can be used as a form of communication...

No. Bans should be communicated by the team and the random team captain has the last say. This is a monarchy damnit the one given ritos mandate of heavean get to rule over all the ones deemed as peasants by rito

well i get that communication is important as you can see i mentioned that in the very first post. but u only have 60 seconds, and most the time i cant figure out what exactly the team likes to play/ban. this is just an added feature to make it easier to communicate, and also who doesnt like to have a say on bans?

just remembered that this actually helps when people dont know what to ban and the team ends up not banning, because its more likely that at least one person will vote for a ban
