[@alex2005z]

Not really. When adcs are so strong anything thats both tanky and wins lane (and even has sidelane push) can be played. Like any champion that meets those 3 conditions can be played. This isnt Adam picking garen to carry, its just chovy getting side push and being annoying

hear me out, riot implementing a general ban every series would make things so much more interesting, like one time they ban azir the next maokai, rell. would make for a fun change for the drafts. idk could be wrong here.

[@alexsolli6680]

wait do you mean that the referees/riot themselves ban a specific champ before select? that's a terrible idea! imagine they banned ziggs. that hurts a good ziggs player, not someone who has only been practicing ziggs for a short while given meta changes. it is entirely unfair to the player who is better on the champ. geng and other teams ban LB because showmaker is good on her. teams ban draven against g2 because hans sama is good on him. you can't just have a general ban like that in league. if that's not what you meant, then it's all good! those are my thoughts anyhow.
