A General Discussion of Whatever Happens to be Meta at the Moment.
Yello. So I was just chilling, procrastinating and looking at the League boards when I realized, there is no real discussion (at least from what I can see) that talks about the meta. So I just decided to come along, hit a few cringy dabs and create a Meta Discussion thingy.
So:
ADC, is essentially just scaling towards late game. We see plenty of Tristana, but what surprises me is how much Vayne is still played. Don't get me wrong I play Jhin/Vayne style champs as my main pool, but what with the nerfs that hit her, I'm surprised she is still so prominent. Honestly though, I don't know if it is just me, but I've gotten really tired of going into a game a facing a Tris
bot lane with an Ali
or Janna support. And honestly, the supports...
Supports are a major oof this split. From the looks of it, Ardent Censer is making a comeback, so anyone who happens to read this, either upvote this or spread the news. I don't if it was just me, but last season, Ardent Censer was a godforsaken demon item. If you are a capable support, it's total hell, but even if you aren't the shields...
Top. Now, everyone memes about how good Ornn is, but really he isn't. Just get him behind and GGWP. Hell, maybe an "HH" for the BM. Honestly though, top lane is really actually a kind of high skill place. Personally as a secondary Top Laner, I like where the top lane is at right now. It approves aggression and rewards you when you go in. But if you are a Teemo, well, I'm not going to go there. Just get out of my top lane. Yes, MY top lane.
Jungle is going to be interesting. There wasn't many changes to that in 8.2 so I am not clear what happened, but as a Knife Cat enthusiast, I will say this: I might start playing more Jungle. Now don't get me wrong, I'm terrible at JG, but Knife Cat. Beyond that, there are the annoying picks (J4, Xin, Warwick, etc.) and then the fun picks (Rhaast, Knife Cat, etc.).
Mid has Xerath, Veigar, Lux, those picks. I don't pay much attention to mid, so sorry for lack of info. If any mid laners stumble upon this go ahead and let me know what is fly in midlane.
Cheers, Me
