New Position; Roamer!

Azkull··5 votes·762 views

I would like to introduce a new possible position called Roamer. This position replaces the jungler in the game, having a jungler and Roamer is a no go. What a Roamer does is, well roam but constantly through out each lane. Champs that Roam can be Hyper carries and or have very good early or abusive abilities, such as Vel 'Koz and or Teemo and Darius. So far i have played this new position of mine in a few games with Champions Teemo and Nidalee, and have worked out in the early game. Make sure you dont take all the kills from the lanes, that has its benefits and consequences. Please if you support this idea for Roamer Position then please let me know and try it out for yourself

Roamer Info: does not carry smite Must Have strong early game Must change lanes constantly or were they might think help is needed Nidalee and Teemo are great for this position

I would rather see the current support changed to a roamer.

The baby sitting the marksmen meta has got to change.

When I support I begin to roam at 6 or when I destroy enemy outer turret- whatever happens first. The exception being bottom lane needs the most help.

All I know is, if you leech a top laner's exp, you get reported. If you take your mid laner's cs, they spam a lot of retreat pings. Also relevant, if you move between lanes without farming the jungle, you will be very underleveled.

It's nice to see people try new things. I also think Clairvoyance would work in this Position

I remember when CV was the go-to summoner spell for Supports.

You would CV the opponent's spawn to see what they started with for items.

Right now its really not that appealing, especially when you can get it in trinket form by giving up the global range.

I'm sorry if this seems trollish, I sincerely don't mean to troll. But, I'm working on a champion concept that would fit the role of "roamer". I was wondering if you could check him out and give me some feedback. If not, it's cool. I just think the role of "roamer" and this champ are a match made in heaven. summoner 1

Bard approves.

Actually, a smite to get the Scuttlers for me seems great.

What does a roamer do that a jungler doesn't?

To me, it just seems like there is an emphasis on ganking.

Alistar I remember in Season 1 when all Alistars did this.

It worked quite well.

I roam a lot as Bard when I know that my laner is safe. Mid laners love Bard ganks. Junglers also appreciate me dropping med kits for them throughout their jungle when I'm on a chime run. :D Bard

Well if your not getting jungle camps for the gold and XP, wandering around leeching off your team is just going to set both of you behind.

And if you don't end up getting any kills or accomplishing anything you have nothing to fall back on.

It's a neat idea, but Junglers do the same thing practically and have a stable income of Gold and XP and sometimes it's still a struggle to keep up.
