LoL players admit this Dota 2 draft feature is needed to fix balancing issues
League of Legends players are fed up this week with Riot Games’ approach to balancing and an ever-stale meta featuring the same champions, but the community—inspired by arch-rival MOBA Dota 2—believes a simple change to the drafting phase might fix the problem.
The debate was sparked in a Sept. 16 Reddit thread following the release of Briar in Patch 13.18, and the solution many believe can work is to increase the number of bans during the champion draft. With a total of 165 champions to choose from now and only ten bans during the draft, players believe that they should take notes from Dota 2’s ban phase and scale accordingly.
