If you're not playing the meta, you're automatically putting yourself at a disadvantage

EDIT: it seems a lot of people are missing the entire point behind this post. Some people telling me that "the best players don't take electrocute and ignite!!" I don't play with electro or . I obviously prefer comet or phase rush.

My boards profile is not the account I played this game on fyi, for those of you who actually have eyes. I used before yes, but not with electrocute like ffs can people read the fucking post?

The whole idea here is to poke fun at the games snowball meta and how stupid it is if you really want to win the game as long as you have a strong burst champ and electrocute. I run because swain gets kited a LOT in plat and higher, tp is dogshit rn. Maybe I should have been clearer.

And that proves completely nothing lol, you could have played vs 5 boosted bonobos, and now you're using this as a "great" point in anti-ignite crusade.

Best players in the world don't even take ignite or electrocute on Swain so..... https://www.probuilds.net/champions/details/Swain

Now play 20 more games with ignite, see if every game is the same as that.

Most Effective Tactic Available

If you aren't playing the meta, you aren't doing what's competitively the best.

By the definition of META, you’re putting yourself at a disadvantage by not adhering to it. “Most effective tactic available.”

It's almost like lane pressure from ignite is more important in solo queue than teamfight pressure from Ghost.

Who woulda thunk it?

What's the next breakthrough; heal+barrier is worse for top laners than flash+TP?

Woo based on this Amazing representative sample of ONE GAME we can also conclude that swain has a 100% winrate.

Also for the record, meta is supposed to be the optimal way of playing a champ so yeah unless you are a genius or you trained a cheesy playstyle of your own you put yourself at disavantage for playing off meta
