Is Vel'Koz still in the Meta?

As a Vel'Koz main I think he is falling out of the meta, as assassins are a big counter to him and a lot of mages in the game. I am just wondering If you guys think that he is falling out of the meta. As I am not a very experienced Velkoz

I don't know if Vel was ever meta, but he's been an alright pick for a long time. Still is

He's never been a part of the meta. He's not bad, but he's not meta and never has been.

Actually he is known as a very good counter against Azir in the pro scenes espcially when Sasin totally oblitareted Faker

Vel has a kit that should be playable in any meta.

Vel'koz isn't a meta champion.

He is a great champion. You don't need to be in a "meta" to be powerful.

That goes for Xerath, Lux, Lissandra, Orianna, and other "utility" mages.

Meta for which lane? I tend to play him bot lane support and I find that he does really well vs Vayne and Jinx (which will be 70-80% of matchups). His only bad pick as a support is into Blitzcrank because of his low telegraphed hooked and disrupt on ult. Thresh is kinda bad for the same reasons, but he's a bit easier to play against.

Vel koz is just depending on the match ups and how you team is built by the end of the day. He is a damage dealer with cc. Back line the fight behind your tanks and just deal true damage a obliterate teams if they cant propers focus you in a fight. Vel koz will be the main target in team fights even over a adc cause his stack of true and damage and low cc just destroys teams and tanks. He doesnt need to be meta for that he is properly balanced and can be easily shut down or excel in a game depending on your positioning and your team build
