Worst meta in your opinion?

According to you guys, what was the worst meta?

I think it's this current meta, because with every other meta we were able to get some control over those that were in meta by banning then there'd be like only 1 or 2 who could be picked, but in this current meta, ban 3 in-meta champs there are still 3 others equally as usable.

Ex: Rengar, Kha'Zix, Talon all get banned, then LB, Zed, Twitch, Vayne, Shaco, Nocturne, Lee Sin and Irelia are still out there.

Juggernauts is a close second though, HATED that meta TO DEATH!

Having more than five viable champions for each role is a healthy meta. It means there's finally a sense of diversity to the game. Ban whoever you find the most offensive and deal with whatever is left the best way you see fit.

Kha'Zix and Rengar just need 1 item, then they 1-shot, LB is like an Ahri X Ekko love child, Zed just says "no" to every mid laner besides Kayle, you just roll your face on the keyboard with Talon, Shaco just dealscrits from behind and Nocturne can 1-shot just by his ult even landing on you, and it's not typically known for a lot of damage, Twitch's invisibility lasts WAY too long now, and Lee Sin's just a b**chy champ.

Kha deals additional damage to isolated targets. I find ninja tabi an excellent item to help mitigate the burst damage from his full combo, thereby allowing me a chance to fight back.

Rengar has no reliable escapes, bait his attacks and plan a counterattack against him. Once he takes whatever bait you've laid out, take him out.

Zed has one very exploitable weakness that people fail to recognize in their panic to survive him. Even though he is melee, he is harder to kill the farther away you are from him. Because even if you run away from him, as long as you are within his shadow or ult range, he can safely eliminate you without any repercussions. The best means of countering this is to maintain a close position with him so that if he does ult you, he is in your range even if he dashes back to his own shadow like a bitch.

Talon is melee and has no hard CC, AoE and ranged damage are his natural enemies. Poke him down in lane and remain near your own turret. Even if he ults you, your turret will reveal that bitch boy and then you can do with him as you please. Optional summoners are barrier and heal to bait him into diving you. You use one of them and it is then that he realizes...he effed up.

Nocturne is single target, even if he ults you to death, you can make him pay for it by moving as close toward your allies as possible. They'll quickly dog pile him and that's one enemy carry dealt right there. OR, you can be one of the players doing the dog piling and maybe even prevent him from killing anyone altogether.

Twitch is among the squishiest champions in game. A good rule of thumb when facing an enemy Twitch is to never engage the enemy until you know exactly where that rat bastard is. I have a policy to always go for the ADC and tear out their freakin' throat before I target anyone else.

Lee Sin has a terrible mid to late game. Lee mains generally camp top...a lot. Knowing is half the battle and Lee is a predictable champion. He picks one lane to camp all game long and he spends more time in your jungle than he does in his own jungle. Keep red and blue warded at all times and drop whatever it is you're doing to kill him when he shows his loser face in either of those areas. A Lee denied an early game is a Lee with NO game.
