Like the title says. What is your favorite "out of meta" pick?

Role/champ? (or even build)

I like playing a lot of out of meta picks for fun. Saw some post about Nami mid and that is one I like.

I love mid Nami. Depending on the matchup, I'll usually go item 3027 , item 3116 , item 3151 , item 3089 , item 3285 with item 3020 of course. Rylai's is an underrated but fantastic item on her, since her W bounces between allies and enemies. It speeds up every ally it hits and slows every enemy with this item. And with Liandry, they're going to be losing chunks every time. You also have a ton of HP with this build so you're a bit harder to kill than the average fish. Make sure to Max Q first you'll need it for waveclear.

Honorable mention items item 3100 , item 3115 works great with her E.

Nami mid works best if you have a jungler who will gank for you a lot. You can almost guarantee a kill every time they gank for you if you're good at landing bubbles. Someone like Udyr is ideal, he can run in, and you make him run faster with E. Then you bubble them, he stuns them, and that's all she wrote. And you can send him back into the jungle with a nice W heal. Hope someone found this interesting/helpful!

Brand apc, he works just as well as any other ranged champ and his ult is better in bot lane Renekton jg. high sustain if you use fury right and great ganks with mobility, stun, and armor shred to help kill top laners Fizz apc (need a good duo partner) get anyone with a nice stun to support you (morgana for example) and fizz wins bottom lane against any adc every time Gnar support. Haven't used him myslef but have played against it and its annoying as hell Twitch top. or any adc top. Often fares well against the mostly-melee tank meta you see top, just keep your distance

Zyra jungle, first clear is tough but after that your plants tank for you (but raptors still suck) Snare, slow and a knock-up, anything you gank dies

Yorick anywhere, because lets face it wherever you play him someone will call you a troll and tell you he sucks. Until you go 12/3/15 and shut them up.

Yorick support back in season 4 when it was mainly assasin's is a huge cockblock against hook champions like blitz/tresh/naut with a well placed ghoul (usually W) outpokes poke botlanes and outheals healing lanes. granted that you will need some mana pots.

however now that the tank/juggernaut meta is a thing it simply isn't very viable.

YumaS2Astral10/22/2015, 12:04:26 AM4 votes

Khazix top and mid

Fizz AD top (and jungle with Devourer, but I only use it when I am forced to go jungle)

Fiddlesticks support

Zac top

Karthus

Yorick

(I've included both Karthus and Yorick because while I play them at their common roles of mid and top laner respectively, they are very rarely played, so they are both out of meta.

TwistedFate adc. Works surprising well against Vayne. If she ults, you ult so you can see her while she is invisible. Then slap her with a gold card and boom, free kill.

Robbit Mang10/22/2015, 2:51:38 AM4 votes

I've played around 15 games of TwistedFate jungle and lost about 4. Before the nerfs to devoured it kicked unbelievable amounts of ass, now you have to build much more AD before being effective and it's synergy with devourer is pretty meh. It's still decently strong.

build was item 3933 item 3153 item 3091 item 3006 any defensive item or item 3046 if you're rolling, then either item 3031 or item 3072 depending on if you need more survivability or damage. Get the ie if you went pd always

I'd gotten flamed in champ select and the kids shut the hell up when I get a quadra kill lol

If I could actually compare him to Kindred for a second as a marksman jungler, I'd say he's better. Obviously not if kindred has absurd stacks , but his farming speed is SO much faster once you can actually clear, you farm about as fast as a master yi. Plus TF has really strong ganks with R and W compared to kindred with just E which is kinda meh. Sucks they had to nerf devourer for her and kick TF jungle in jungle in the balls

I recently discovered that AP Lucian is actually not complete garbage and can be a ton of fun.

If you want something really trolling, try an On-Hit/Atk. Speed build for Bard. If you farm a ton of Charms the combination of his upgraded autos along with things like Wit's End and Frozen Mallet can be hilarious.

Talon Jungle

It's what Amumu jungle would look like if his ult was on a 69 second cooldown.

I thoroughly enjoy either Brand orZac support. It's so fun to just jump around doing some weird shit on Zac and to play support item 3116 Brand

I play Top ad Soraka Topraka for short. If done correctly you can force what the enemy thinks is going to be an easy 20 min victory into an unexpected banana fest going up to 60 minutes long. Seriously, every time I play soraka the game becomes so long because I carry so hard the rest of my team can't surrender.

Top Lane Braum

item 3111 item 3068 item 3025 item 3053 item 3748 item 3091

Don't knock it till you try it. The extra damage Braum does after stunning someone is stronger than most people think.

Note: You can possibly swap out the item 3025 for a item 3078.

I play a lot of Swain and I've recently started playing Galio support. Galio + Kalista bot lane is bonkers.

It's pretty heavy cheese, if you land the q you can burst with your adc, if you can't you're kind of useless until 6.
