Creep-Blocking: The Final Soulution
It all comes down to Pick/Ban. If you pick the correct comp, Creep-Blocking will never be an issue. It's a simple matter of building your comp around champions that laugh @ Unit Collision.
Here's a sample comp, though there are a wide number of variations if you add Phantom Dancer to the Mix.
Hecarim Top is obviously the strongest top-laner in the current meta, especially against Juggernauts like Darius, Garen, and Tank Teemo.
He may have lost his title as "Kassawin" a while ago, but he's a true gem in this comp, not caring about the evil wall of enemy creeps ahead.
TWO asssains in one comp? We're not back to early season 5, where the only viable roles for top, mid, and jungle were Mage. Instead, we take the new direction of putting two more assassins then should be in any 10-person game played by adults. Flashy Plays may not excite riot, but they drive enemy teams CRAZY
Now, you may think that this comp is a bunch of champions picked for their individual power, and you're right! Quinn's Circular Hawkshot puts her head and shoulders above enemy ADCs that have to rely on wards to reveal the fog of war. Freeing up support gold for items like
really puts her ahead in lane. She phases through the enemy creeps like a hot knife through butter when she transforms into her bird, Quinn.
Janna's W is the perfect example of the "windows of power" methodology that riot has introduced to champion design almost perfectly. (For another good example, I'd highlight
, who has a powerspike that lasts approximately as long as the game.) Janna absoulutely dominates lane up until she has to use her W to lock down the enemy
to secure a kill for quinn, after which, Janna is vulnerable to ganks that she would otherwise have time to react to, like
's triple "Q"

Also, if you're interested in another take on the same issue from the same person,
, along with a time machine and 9
's feeding her mana. Seeing as this isn't a typical team-comp, I advocate a creep Apartheid system, where we keep them as free but lesser beings.
