How to Get a Better Meta
1. As a Community, Get Us on the P1/P2/P3/P4/P5 System instead of Marksman Carry System For those that don't know, in Dota 2, there is a Position 1-5 system that indicates which member of the team should be getting the most Gold/XP on the team. P1 is the most gold and P5 is the least gold. In LoL, it would likely be more focused on Gold, but I think this system is better than the Marksman Carry System since Position 1 doesn't = Marksman. It can be a Mage, Fighter, or Marksman (anyone with sustained damage/extremely good use of gold). The current "Ziggs Bottom Lane" is a good example of this. Ziggs isn't a Marksman, he is instead Position 1, where he is in a lane with another character that makes sure he gets the most farm. This could get especially interesting if Strategies are made to where the Jungler might INTENTIONALLY give lanes farm in order to make sure a Carry gets farmed the fastest. I am 100% confident we can, together, create an adaptable, reliable system with a variety of Carry champions that can each have positive win rate in the right circumstances.
2. Buff Assassins WHAT!? I know right? Yeah, the ability to kill the current Carry of the enemy team is incredibly weak/unreliable. The entire point of an Assassin is a character that CAN reliably kill a Carry and currently they aren't too reliable at all. Some Assassins need flat out buffs, some Assassin items need buffs (RIP Lethality), and some need adjustments (no more Cho'Gath sized Fizz R projectiles please). Plus, with a greater variety in Carries with the first adjustment, we need a greater variety in good Assassins.
3. Redesign the Jungle Role Going to be honest, time and time and time and time and time and time and time and time and time and time and time again the Jungle has needed to be reworked. However, perhaps it isn't the Jungle, but the design of the role itself. A role entirely made around clearing AA-Machine PvE monsters and then ambushing people with all that stored up gold might be a good idea. There needs to be more PvP interaction and risk in the Jungle if it is ever going to be a good role.
