So that's riot's idea of bot lane diversity?

Putting Morde in the bot lane?

Thresh, Blitz, Vayne, and Jinx have been dominating the bot lane recently and people have been asking for more diversity and riot just throws Morde down there while at the same time gutting his solo lane playstyle. When will there be more options for bot lane? I want to see more Miss Fortune (bad update). I want to see more Taric. I want to see more Zilean. Please Riot. Thesh has been dominating the support role, with the exception of Janna who is picked also maybe even more than Thresh.

Tldr: I've seen so many amazing ideas to save the support role/bot lane in general and they have all been ignored. What's wrong with listening to the community and implementing a good idea.

riot cares more about their pro plays and tournaments, expect diversity in the next millennium

I want to see this, I want to see that. Then do it, RIOT doesn't dictate where people go and who they play lol. Players control the meta, not RIOT.

No, Riot determines most of the meta. With the whole armor changes coming soon by riot's hands I'm pretty sure the meta will probably shift.

Weird because RIOT never tells me I can't play this champion in this lane but I sure as hell get shit from other players who do not deem my choice as "meta."

I actually prefer "top lane" tanks over traditional supports. Maokai is a decent example. I've wanted to try cho support but i'm typically the adc when i duo with friends and i don't want to stick someone with an "off meta" support without proving it works first.
