Lucian continues to dominate every division, so if you're not playing him...you better ban him. Meanwhile, everyone's still banning Akali on the off chance that they run into a godlike player who crushes everyone with insane moves. On the other hand, this practically never happens and it's much more likely you get someone who picks her just because they think she's overpowered.
Might as well save yourself a ban and leave her open. If she does pop off though, just tell yourself that's a challenger smurf.

Method
To do this list, I first start with whichever statistical compilation site I have available (my personal preference is leagueofgraphs.com). Afterwards, I check the most banned champions and separate them into either "God Tier" or "Meh Bans" based on win rate and popularity, sometimes subjective reasoning (in which case I'd do a write-up).
Last I do an analysis of both the win rate and the popularity by division and add in good bans for that division based on such.
Some people may note that most sites don't distinguish between "Platinum Only" and "Platinum and Higher". However, this generally doesn't make much of a difference as a result of the way the overall player distribution is between the ranks. Bronze and Silver make up the highest percentage of error, but generally run similar to each other.
