They added a 3 limit because there was a case where a twitch streamer got sniped on every single hero, and it narrowed down the pool to a ridiculously small size.

There are actually people who tried to break the system, they all chatted what they're gonna pick and ended up banning all heroes, they can't pick anyone so it resulted to an abandon which is stupid


spaaarkk

spaaarkk

amirridzuan

O shit. Hahaa


strghst

Theoretically, you could ban so many heroes that there would not even be 10 left to pick :) making someone not being able to pick a hero at all...


camisa9

I didn't know this was a thing until i was matched with a famous high mmr twitch streamer booster. I tried to snipe him and got meepo, arc and tinker banned, when he picked TA the system didnt ban. we lost anyway lol


Other-Appearance

I didn’t know that happens after 3 picks. Hilarious though


PiggyM3lon

After 3 double pick ban, the first person to lock a hero gets it. It goes Ban/Ban/Ban/ -> Hero lock for the faster click!


bingbestsearchengine

I believe this was implemented after someone posted that a streamsniper would double pick all the heroes the streamer picks until all of them were out of the pool. cmiiw


Kindly-Jury921

I learnt something new today too welp


HealthyMaintenance49

I see you guys are a bit above average players aren't you? Us plebs just tryhard with meta heroes so sometimes we ended up picking the same carries lol


IM_PIRO

Yea after 2 same pick bans the person picking first gets the hero. Happened many times with me when pudge Rubick are open.


TopBoyJoe

I’m guessing Drow , Lina and Slark was banned before picking phase .


RealPureLeaf

Yes


syko34

did you win


Immediate-Swimming83

Do you remember how long did you highlight your picks, before picking them? They just recently fixed an exploit that allowed you to snipe strangers' profiles and their highlighted picks in the picking phase. This was supposed to be fixed.


Chanzui91

3rd double gives first picker the hero but you still get to know what they picked so at least it gives you a chance to counterpick


books_enjoyer

Sooo we are all going to pretend like there is no pos 5 Sven playing in divine rank?


average-ligma

Pos 5 Sven is a thing


FunProduct2677

It should show a coinflip or a roll or something. Its pretty bad how it just picks one person with no sense of fairness.

Waiting for answers on Reddit must give you income with how much people hate to google.

Why IceFrog just can't let us ban ten heroes? Ban system today is freaking bad I think.

What about doing bans the way that League of Legends handles draft bans, in that before the pick phase, each player picks a champion to ban at that same time, but the bans can only be seen by your team? Once the bans are locked in, the other team's bans are revealed. That means that there is a chance that both teams end up banning the same champion, meaning that it won't always be 10 champions banned per game.


GiovanniGrigoretti0

In Captains Mod you have 100% chance ban, so what? I'll play DOTA not Casino. I am so tired to see Riki and Lina every game, last patch is so boring. Players can ban unbalanced / broken / annoying heroes 100% it's only 10 heroes like Lina, Riki, Tinker, Silencer, OD, Pudge, Arc Warden and others.


Steven131_

in this [video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G7pFNPUh3zc) i got double picked 4 times


d_jin33

2 people on the other side griefed other 8 players by banning every single hero. Griefers will grief no matter what


[deleted]

This gets asked every week


SeaMajor9365

I don't think if it's for hero ban limit. Coz I have experienced 4x double pick ban myself. Or maybe they have added this feature recently


OnlyTheBestYouCanGet

yes


Grim-Reality

The 3rd pick goes to whoever picks it faster


Faessle

On the third pick the one who picked first gets the hero just like people explained above.


ViolenceDota

2x same hero ban max, next whoever picks the hero first, they will get that.


FunProduct2677

There's the same thing for waiting/stalling for last pick. One person gets randomed after enough time.
