Possible New Meta?

So I have been practicing for a while, a meta that I had thought of on my main account. I was playing with my friends for about a week with this and a few randoms as an experiment in the low-diamond high-plat mmr. I took it over to this account in a normal and the game went well in low-gold and high-silver, I had gotten the right game the first try when I was attempting this. So here's the data: https://gyazo.com/921f3e60071a9dd136d6a33c372bb0a6 https://gyazo.com/feb8f16bc8a7fb4c361df4924f9a3c38 https://gyazo.com/88b0d919c79824558bd9be7b6c465ac0 https://gyazo.com/3c053ec316d9509a73cd449337a51df7 https://gyazo.com/b2de8d848593c355cddf79082689c1c3

Now when I explain the meta keep in mind that I have tried this with Champions that can jungle/top and carry games easily with Devourer if it's done right. Champions like Jax, Trynde, Udyr, Voli, etc. What I have been doing grabbing smite and going top, farming it out until I can get Devourer, usually getting it earlier than usual. Switching the secondary jungler, so I go farm for sated pretty fast because I am so ahead; it makes for easy ganks. I've won 13/15 games with this strategy and if you're playing with friends you can communicate well with, I find it never loses.

What are your thoughts?

I guess it depends on if it seems to work at your elo. If you are diamond/low plat elo and doing it in silver or gold then it doesn't tell you as much because you simply could be winning since you're a much higher elo player. However, if it seems to be working vs other players in your elo consistently then I think you might be on to something.
