Which champions do you think could replace marksmen Bot Lane once midseason hits?
I wanted to make this thread before anything was put on the PBE it could be 100% speculation. No salt or anything, just guesses.
is a pretty obvious one, he worked for a bit last season and he might still work right now. Other Mages I think could show up are
are sort of obvious as well due to their kits being based around attack speed. Azir might not be as good as he would have been due to range nerfs.
's hyper scaling means he'll probably see some play at the beginning. You'll have more people to stack your passive on and potentially kill and a support to help keep you safe and farm. Sounds pretty good on paper to me.
is probably going to be a thing. I would be shocked if it isn't. I bunched them together because I don't really see one of them replacing the marksmen unless they're together.
I've played against
bot and lost to it. I could see this working if you're any good at her.
I don't think many melee champions have a chance to work in bot lane, but I could see
. GP could work for a few of the same reasons Veigar might. You'd have a support to help keep you safe and you hyper scale. You could farm with Q to get around some of the melee vs ranged disadvantage, and with your W you could play farther up against champions like Morgana or Thresh. You would also be able to effect other lanes without losing CS with your ult. And for Yasuo, windwall. Need I say more?
Casters. The primary goal of botlane is objective taking, especially towers, so Nashor's users fit the bill.
