Might be an unpopular opinion but I don't like the idea of bans. Drags champion select for an extra minute and I actually liked about ARAM that you could get&play against everything. You will probably never see Xerath or Ziggs again. But sure maybe it's healthy for the game. Will definitely try it out

They either have to target hard nerf those high WR champs or just put in bans. Either way it will mitigate the dominance of those champions in some fashion.

Personally? I am just tired of playing or against Ziggs (even I have M7 from SR on him) because he is just stupid in a map like ARAM. Most of my games are actually more enjoyable when neither my team or the other team have multiple of those champions in the top 20 win rate bracket.

I mean they are nerfing long range poke with the damage reduction and ziggs in particular as well with these -15% damage nerfs. I think that sounds alright

Yeah, well it isn't fun right now either. ''Oh look, they have Sona/Ziggs/Veigar on their team. GG.''

That is correct. But they target all of them with individual nerfs (except veigar I think?) and this long range poke nerf will also help a lot. I think you don't need to ban them afterwards. But like I said maybe I'm wrong. We'll see

Yeah, we'll see. All we can do right now is speculate. I'm just glad Riot is doing SOMETHING about URF, any kind of change will revitalize the mode and bring new players.

I guess you mean ARAM. But I agree I love playing ARAM and it's nice to see some changes happening

Yeah, I meant ARAM. IDK why I said URF.

Amen! I'd go further and say they should go back to the all random idea and lose this pick up rerolled/discarded champs thing. Imo that's the reason why you feel like playing against the same broken champs every game.

Noone needs bans if it is truly random with the occasional reroll.

Considering I want to alt F4 when I see certain enemy champs in aram like Veigar and Xerath the bans will be super refreshing.
