User blog comment:Nhan-Fiction/Draft Pick Needs More Champion Bans/@comment-24613667-20140506105438

There are never enough bans because there are too many champions that are inherently broken. So, instead of banning Janna or Fiddlesticks in order to counterpick, we're forced to ban champs like Master Yi and Katarina because they can't be dealt with if they get a slight advantage.

I'd like to see Riot employees keep a smile as they repeatedly get blown up by a Statikk Shiv/IE Master Yi, a smart-casting Katarina, an infinitely sustaining Warwick or Xin Zhao, a purple man with a stick, a stun-bot Spartan... I could go on and on because their design philosophy of "high-risk, high-reward" is far more forgiving than they care to admit. Where is the high risk when you mash the keyboard, get a kill, and all of your skills reset, when you buy a Spirit Visage and heal faster than you take damage, or when your end-game build is one item (Trinity Force)?

But, of course, they'll never actually balance the champions that need it because their precious LCS teams don't pick them.
