[5.5] Weird and New Competitive Picks

Sailor Mint·3/21/2015, 10:30:41 PM·2 votes·1,797 views

Coming to a solo queue near you:

Top: Jax Vladimir Yorick Jungle: Hecarim Nunu Olaf Udyr Zac Mid: Diana Sion item 3060, TwistedFate Urgot ADC: KogMaw Support: Irelia Maokai Nautilus

UoL played the S2 Dignitas Special Yorick+Cass combo. Kur0 played Sion mid and rushed Banner of command. Kog is included for the sake of completion, not really weird.

I can't find a Volibear pick but I'm pretty sure he was played. Is LPL on 5.5 yet?

Edit: Apparently LCK is still on 5.4.

I don't know if Kog'Maw can really be called a "weird" pick per-se, since Koggles has always been a GOD given the right teamcomp (to the point that he easily outdamages any other ADC)

No, neither LPL nor LCK is on 5.5 yet, which is the best part about all of this

Banner of Command was always good this season. The problem is that there are far too many AD champions laning in this meta to allow people to see it's potential.

Sion Mid has been a niche thing for a while. Dat E spam.

Nunu is probably only popular right now because he's practically the only viable counter-jungler.

tfw Irelia so broken she can be played in 3-4 roles

Wait a minute, many of those are not new picks. In fact some of them are quite old (Naut support is especially oldschool).
