Meta restricting summoner spell usage
People seem to think if I take 
with me to bot lane or play without 
, etc, that I am trolling. 95% of the lobbies I'm in people will lose it and give of pre-game seeing an off meta spell pick... If the meta is restricting use of our spells, masteries and item builds, forcing us to play out of our comfort zones/reasons for picking that spell then why are we following it? I couldn't even go without being flamed for taking 
with
against a 
combo
I am in silver elo afterall but is this meta what people are really supposed to learn from? There are no tips for counterplay and discovering your playstyle?

bot when you have an adc elsewhere is murder on the enemy team), if it isn't something that the pro's do, it "can't" work.
