Ekko, Gnar. Rek'Sai, Gragas. Cassiopeia, Vlad. Jhin, Ashe, Sivir. Trundle, Braum.

The only diversity I've ever seen is in mid (Vel'Koz, Syndra, wow much diversity 4 champs), NOWHERE else have I seen diversity.

EDIT: Shen

That's because riot balances around yoloQ.

are the prominent picks because they're objectively very, very good right now. but you do usually get an off pick or two in a lot of games, like Kalista Velkoz AurelionSol Riven Hecarim Olaf Zac Alistar for example.

As dumb as it was for Riot to release the Juggernaut patch right before Worlds last year, we got to see a buttload of champion diversity. Darius's presence alone allowed so many picks to come out that could play around him.

That's because its the LCS, teams will always pick the safest and strongest champs they know how to play currently. They dont wanna risk a lose by picking a new champion they probably havent practiced with in a while.
