During hero selection, everyone on my team had picks for bans, yet we somehow ended up with only one hero banned. Four people had three picks filled, and one person had two. Everyone had at least two picks, so there should certainly be no reason for only one hero to end up banned.
Did you all vote the same way and which heroes were they? There’s a chance that y’all just made the same ban choices as the enemy team. For example, if your team unified in banning unpopular heroes like Sombra/Zarya/Mercy and the enemy team made the same choices.
Nah, that couldn’t be the case since there were 6 different heroes picked in total. Someone had Echo as their first pick for instance, but only Zarya was chosen.
There may be a limit (2) to how many tanks/dps/support can be banned. So if both teams picked 5 damage heroes and 1 tank hero, only the top 2 damage heroes would be banned along with the 1 tank hero. I also have seen a rare case where no one on my team banned anyone which results in only 2 bans from the other teams’ votes.
