There's a difference between Meta and the same 10 champions (Discussion)

I understand that working for a balance team at Riot must be extremely difficult, because of how champions and items work together, causing nerfing/buffing one thing to completely skew another thing. Recently though, it seems that there has just been roughly the same 10 champions over and over in a game.

At this point, it's no longer queueing up for a match to show off your skills. It's whoever who can grab the most OP champions first.

If you look at the following champions, you'll notice the win rate, general low difficulty, but crazy stats. It's no longer a meta, it's just turned into a 'clown fiesta' where it's overpowered champions killing each other, just in different team configurations.

Let me know your thoughts on how you feel being the "Season 6 Lab Rats", based on current meta, if you can even call it that.

You're not even at an elo to understand the power differences between Tier 1 and Tier 2 champs, and how did Amumu even make it to your list (he's been 53%+ WR for multiple seasons anyways)

You can still play GP, Fiora, Yi, Gragas, Jax, most ADCs and still win games, so complaining about the "same 10 champs" beyond what you spectate on LCS is not applicable to your gameplay.
