I can only play 2 champions and win. I main jungle, and my 2 main junglers I do very well with. But when I play off-meta champs like Elise or Olaf, people just don't know how to synergize with them. So even if I get my team ahead, they still end up falling off or feeding later. I enjoy playing the champs I play, but I wish I could branch out more and play something off meta. Anybody else feel like this?
EndlessSorcerer3 votesNot really. I find that the current meta has made a large majority of the champion pool viable and allows for a wide variety of team compositions.

There's a lot of champions I would love to play more, but I feel like I have to play Rek'Sai or Gragas to really get consistent wins.
Crunchyfied2 votesElise and olaf are not great jungle choices. You bring nothing in to the team. Those two are more solo junglers and if you play solo junglers don't expect for your team to synergize. You have to be the one that carries if you are going to play solo junglers. They have no teamfight at all so of course it's expected that your team doesn't synergize welll with them.

Yeh, I've been considering picking up Wukong for the bruiser aspect with a little more team fight capability. Thanks for the reply.
Snowball4u1 votesElise is an INSANELY good pick if you can play her right. She struggles early in jungle so the goal is to have your teammates place wards everywhere so u dont get invaded. Otherwise there is no reason you shouldnt be doing good with her if u have the skillz.

I usually don't have issues with her early. If you run through Gromp, Blue and Wolves, you are 3 before you get to your red. If they invade, you should have your stun up. And unless it's a very healthy jungler like Nunu, you pretty much have to just know how to out duel them. And even so, Nunu is very weak early. If you hit your skill shot on Elise, you're already pretty viable. She's just a very hard champion to be great with, and her play style is unlike any other jungler I play.

elise is like bottom of the barrel atm they nerfed her a lot her skirmishing is much weaker than what it used to be and she doesnt have that a large impact ult like most junglers making her weaker in team fights. Not snowballing or not being able to stall lane phase will pretty much ruin her.

I feel like this all the time. Most of the time I would like to play tanks and be the one to start the fights, but every time I do my team runs away. If I play annie,teemo, brand, or sona I win more. And I hate it. I would like to win more with other champs but it feels like you can't because they are highly team work base. Like Braum. he has a great kit, and ends up being a great tank, but unless my team works with his passive you just end up going in and dieing, and then your team tells you that your bad because you started the fight even if you went tank. So in other words I agree 100% that you can't play other champs because they rely on your team working with you. You have to play champs that can take care of them self's or do the most damage. Witch in my view just sucks.
