want the "ranged" meta to end?

(its not a ranged meta, but you can entertain the idea, i still find a melee top/jungle 90% of the time, excluding assassins in the mid lane)

you pick leona/blitz/nami/morgana support

you pick mundo, maokai, malphite top

you pick jarvan, vi, nautalis, zac jungle

these are all viable options but you are the one choosing to play meta champs and you find yourselves counterpicked, thats it. its the only reason why 'the ranged meta" is so potent, because you picked a champion which lacks hard engage or sustain.

if you want to beat poke you pick engage or sustain, its that simple.
