With roaming supports, do you think the meta could possibly change?
It's been a long time since the meta has shifted in any significant way. I dunno about you guys, but I'm kind of sick of it. With Bard coming out, and the few champions that can pass as a roaming support, I was thinking of ideas to try out.
My personal favorite one that I thought of is based around shifting and moving around at a moment's notice, taking highly mobile champs combined with those that have enough cc to keep their targets there, and catching out enemies. Bard support, solo mobile champion bot (examples include Kennen, Akali, Shen, Riven, Irelia, Jax, Diana) heavy cc tank jungler (naut, amumu, vi, j4) mobile assassin mid (ahri, zed, talon, kass), split pusher/ranged adc/another mobile assassin top (Nasus, Rengar, vayne, jayce, Teemo would actually work pretty well with the shrooms considering this is a teamcomp to catch opponents out.) So yeah, like I said, with this teamcomp your goal is to just catch out opponents. During the lane phase you'll have the advantage of your jungler and Bard/whatever roaming support you picked ganking at the same time. You can either split up, or gank one lane with both champs or even both. Bard and jungler gank top while your mid roams bot. Very fast paced and it'll take a lot of teamwork to master, but I think this one has a lot of potential to be a very good comp with high objective control. My biggest concern with it is that the enemy team would group up and you'd lose the advantage once that happens, but that's solved with the top lane split pusher. Someone is going to have to go up to stop him, most likely even more than one person, when that happens, you catch that person out with wards, kill them, then continue doing what you're doing.
What do you guys think? And have you got any ideas of your own?
