Whenever I get bored I just go on youtube and type in certain champions that I want to watch and have over 1 thousand videos of the champions that I want to see. When watching the LCS I know the pros are only going to play the "op" champions so I deal with it because it's been like this since the LCS started anyways.

It is completely okay, but why isn't Hecarim or Olaf 'op' anymore in lcs?? They have a different tooltip that might destroy the current lcs meta IF they gave a try.

Well its like this bud its trickle down system. Adc's are weak as hell right now. That being said adc;s are picking low mobility like ashe and jhin for their utility and long range ult/ initation. BECAUSE of this, they have low mobility. Now what is great for blowing up low mobility adcs? you got it mate, ASSASIANS. Kat is getting big in mid for the first time in years, Rumble top is a thing more than ever sense they are slow to escape the equalizer, and top laners to meat wall for their squishys will always be a thing. Olaf and hecarim are good picks and will probally always be relevant in solo que, but right now a kha that can jump in the backline and 1-2 shot an ashe has more value.

Taco is right; right now we live in the Assassin meta but people think we are in the "Tank" meta "Omg the tank meta" but they seem to forget that mid/jng/adc and now support all do 100-0 dmg in 1 ability.

Hecarim Kinda useless without ult and without Trinity honestly. More than half of the "meta" junglers right now counter him easily.

Graves is more of a pick because he can just AA and hit Q and you're dead. Is also a better counter jungler than Hec because of his close QT Q.

Khazix is more of a pick because he can just jump in and out of fights, picking off the carries with his spike/slash combos. Can jump over walls and is fairly strong at all stages of the game, tends to be weaker late game because of his passive but with items it doesn't matter much.

LeeSin The best jungler because of his high burst dmg, and crazy heal shield, falls off late game when late game was 50 mins but late game is around the 35 min mark the average of game lengths which in the past was actually the mid game so Lee even at 35 mins is still much stronger than Hec.

Olaf In my opinion is very strong but at the same time even with his ult stopping CC etc it's still annoying to deal with for the first 5 levels and late game when Olaf hits ult can't be stopped with CC etc but his team can. It's so easy these days to focus the right people because of the amount of cc,slows,taunts,fears,roots etc that it makes Olaf king of the team but his team are most likely dead or useless because every champion from the enemy team all have some type of lockdown for a year + 100-0 dmg from those champions. Olaf throws his axes to catch up to people while for Kha he can just shoot off his spikes that goes further, heals and Lee sin can throw Q be be in front of his enemies.

I thought Riven was super OP ;~; but they never pick her.

Yeah most of the matchups are basically the same. That said im enjoying following Flyquest. They havnt subscribed to the S tier picks and bans and their games are definatly scrappier and no where near as refined as watching things like LCK... but they are absolutely more fun to watch. People rip on NA-EU rivalry all the time but honestly the Clown fiestas are more action packed and fun to watch than 30-40 mins of farming, one team getting a steal or pick then ending. One of the only Eu teams i watch is UOL because similar to FQ, they dont nessicarily just step in line with what everyone else does and make their own formulas and its more fun to watch.
