What bans in your division/tier? - Nion - 2013-04-23 Everytime I go into normal draft or ranked games in silver, it seems to me that the following are banned all the time: Shen Malphite Hecarim Amumu Blitzcrank Thresh I was wondering if it's the same for Gold, Bronze, and whatnot. What bans in your division/tier? - Asen - 2013-04-23 Shen is overrated. Not worth banning at all. Thresh, Amumu, Hecarim, and Zac, however, are always must-bans imo What bans in your division/tier? - Olsi - 2013-04-23 I agree with Asen, those are the musts for me (unless im using thresh or a teammate is and I can first pick it for him). Sometimes Ill ban people who are annoying to deal with tho. What bans in your division/tier? - Nion - 2013-04-23 Are there any other champions other than the ones mentioned that would be worth a ban? What bans in your division/tier? - Burritos - 2013-04-23 Elise mehbe. What bans in your division/tier? - VerrKol - 2013-04-23 I'd say blitz, malph, and amumu are permabans. Shen is annoying , but not particularly OP. I have no real problems against most thresh, but his lantern can be killer when paired with gap closers like Xin Zhao's E->Q combo. Other good bans are Elise, Xin Zhao, Cho'Gath, and Hecarim What bans in your division/tier? - hongyu - 2013-04-24 Shen is good if you can coordinate and make good plays with him, in solo q right now he's more or less your free saver every few minute right now What bans in your division/tier? - IllegallySane - 2013-04-24 Thank you guys for giving me hated champions to play in LoL. What bans in your division/tier? - Imagine - 2013-04-24 I usually just ban blitz, and whatever I don't feel like playing against (usually elise and/or kayle since I'm playing singed). Stealth champions are pretty high up there (mainly Shaco, pineapple good shaco players). For the usual top 4 (excluding blitz) silver bans: -Shen's impact in the game can be countered by anyone that can push the lane hard. He uses ult? Take his tower. -Malphite only OP thing is his ult, and that's about it. Other than that, his kit is decent. -Alistar, people don't know how to WQ right, gets shut down by poke heavy supports. -Amumu, don't stand together (but people are stupid), counterjungle that fucker if he's in the jungle. What bans in your division/tier? - Judgment - 2013-04-24 As a Bronze player, the usual four are Blitzcrank, Shen, Amumu, and Malphite. The fifth and sixth ones are usually tossups, some of the usual ones include Akali and Darius. I don't see Thresh being banned as often though, even though people say that he serves the "puller" role better than Blitz. What bans in your division/tier? - Asen - 2013-04-24 No, Thresh is just ridiculously broken because he has a pull with a passive that does a pomegranate ton of damage in lane, a knockback in any direction, sustain AND a get out of jail free card via his lantern and an ult that is basically a snare. He's just incredibly stupid What bans in your division/tier? - Duelman - 2013-04-24 In dominion tournament draft we usually run bans along these lines: Chat bans(Permaban status, won't see the light of day unless someone has to target ban): Kassadin Khazix Jayce Nidalee Game bans(Less gamebreaking than previous list, but are still OP as pineapple): Amumu Wukong Elise Eve Lulu What bans in your division/tier? - Five Second Pose - 2013-04-25 At bronze II we ban Shen, Shaco, Amumu, and Blitzcrank. I haven't played in a while so I presume the old Darius bans are out and Thresh bans are in. Other people ban Malphite but I usually don't care. What bans in your division/tier? - MasPan - 2013-04-26 [COLOR="#cc8899"]There are three approaches I see to bans in Bronze/Silver: 1. Banning counterpicks of your champion, or matchups you don't know how to deal with 2. Banning difficult to deal with champions (Amumu, Shen, etc - champions that can be countered but will capitalize on mistakes or bad team comps) 3. Banning popular picks (Lux, Akali, etc) - I do this on occassion just because I'm sick of seeing Lux every other game.[/COLOR] What bans in your division/tier? - Connor - 2013-04-26 Gold: Hecarim Blitz Thresh Nasus Amumu Last ban changes often from Elise, Zac, and Volibear. Don't see too many Shen/Malphite bans any more. What bans in your division/tier? - Dredragon - 2013-04-27 [COLOR="#0000FF"]Plat 5 now and I am usually banning; Zac Twisted Fate Zed Hec Kayle rest of the usual bans[/COLOR]
