Some things I think we might see in S7 LCS:
Talon jungle
Naut/Sion support
Yorick (yee)
and less Nidalee
These are just a few predictions, maybe Talon/Yorick are gonna suck in high level play.
OOOH AND I FORGOT we can probably see LeBlanc more often as well
Kal Vas Flam1 votesIt's hard to say, things that you think would be OP sometimes don't make it into the pro scene for various reasons. Likewise things that are believed to be weak sometimes crash through (Ali at this year's worlds). It's so unpredictable at times.
TurquoiseYoshi1 votesEspecially since most pro picks depend on their tuning. Talon could have terrible stats and nobody picks him, or he has great stats and he's P/B. Or the meta could be terrible for assassins (hearing rumblings of double bruiser bot lanes, that would suck for assassins), and Talon is never played.
GeminiRune1 votesYeah. There's always that array of champs that are considered to be a key pick and are played at least once or not at all depending on how good the current tier line is. Examples like 6.15? where Illaoi was considered a potential pick but became more of a pocket pick to select players (Vizicsacsi and Quas for example). Or a more recent case where I believe an article had mentioned Kog being a potential Worlds pick due to him still being the pre-reverted state. Pro meta forms pretty interesting sometimes. Still day 1 of the assassin exposure too with plenty of time to shape it out.
MunchCrunchLunch1 votesi doubt it will change much. assassins will still probably too risky to play outside maybe leblanc (what a surprise right?).
the pros don't play anything that is risky. they usually play for the team comps that win early game and have for the most part high window of power and not depend on high cooldowns and what not.
B00B001 votesNida lee will still be a top pick, the nerfs slow her down a bit but really don't make much of a difference,
Talon jungle is what I'm trying asap that pathing is super op for jungle mobility
