For a little over a year tanks have been dominating the top lane role with exceptions : Camille to this day she is picked :Jayce before he got nerfs his laning phase and early game he can shit on tanks like Chogath :Gangplank when kleptomancy was OP these were the only non-tanks that were chosen within the year and a half. That had a decently consistant pick rate (Sorry Fiora you couldn't count)

For jungle for an incredibly long time was dominated by tanks as well. THese are a few exception :LeeSinfor an incredibly long time before trackers knife got removed he was a popular pick (even now he is good) :Elise Ver few champions period has the burst pre-level 6 compare dto elise. Unless if she's ahead in the early game then Nidalee when she was just like Zoe Recently marksman jungle like Graves andKindred rose through the meta too. Now, with better options for jungle, such as Taliyah Nocturne XinZhao the jungle meta finally brought balanced. Hec even full ap Gragas is starting to get picked. AP graggas! This is when you know the meta is finally improving yay! And best of all terminal cancer (a.k.a Jayce 's retarded little brother) Viktor is getting nerfed, but at the same time buffs. So mid lane vik will be better than tanky viktor.

(not all these champions mentioned above are based off of competitive play, not soloQ)

yet I feel like I see the same champs almost every game. This season should be dubbed "flavor of the week". As rito makes all their buffs and nerfs, it is a flocking to a small group of champs. We have the largest champ pool with all the new champs, yet the least variety I have seen in any season. The only variety is when there is a nerf or buff that sends people to the next OP champ. There are certain champs that if not banned would be in every single game.

Old Warwick?! he was not very interactive with his old kit.

Old Warwick?! he was not very interactive with his old kit.

He was all about map control and being in the right place at the right time. His ult was pretty boring, but hit Q was stronger, and his W was better for teams. Overall, I actually like the old WW better. I just think people used and thought about him the wrong way. Too many people just wanted to play the burst surprise ult, when in reality his map control, objectives, and sustain was where he shined. His late game was also far superior to WW now. It would be better if we could mix the two. Bring back his old Q and W, reduce his stupid movement crap which makes his mobility insane but dumb as hell because people know when you are near now. Use the newer ult, and then I think it would be a better champion.
