Anyone else avoiding playing adc because now you have to lane against another adc and a MAGE? Or avoiding top lane because you pick urgot and they pick a lux? Or getting heimerdinger 3 games in a row? What's happening? Every match is complete chaos. My mate played Urgot vs Lux one game and the next he was against Zilean. How should he counter that? Even if he's last pick he has no idea which champion goes to which lane and in my opinion very often stacks the odds against the "classical" top picks. Or when you play Ashe + Janna vs Ziggs and Brand on bot lane, how do you outplay when they just bombard you with abilities that at level 5 take 20% of your hp each even with the Janna shield? Am i missing something? How do i know which champion to pick when i'm last pick if i have no idea who goes where, it could be Soraka top and Garen supp for all i know. Anyone have any tips?

Apparently, this is just how the meta is now. "TRY NEW THINGS IT IS PERFECTLY ACCEPTABLE"

It feels cheap, Ranked is basically blind pick now, doesn't matter if you see what they pick, it's just complete chaos, 2 adcs? why not? no adcs? also good. It's gotten to a point that i avoid picking a "supporty" support and just play xerath as "support". And every game i pick xerath i tell my mates that this is wrong and should not be tolerated but i feel like i have no choice. Like they nerfed Janna recently, and soraka a few patched before that. I think the supporty supports should get a considerable buff just so they can compete. Because a Brand can do massive damage at level 6. Do you guys think they're going to make a change to it?

No right now is preseason. There is no logic or meta.

Just rush item 3211 and you won lane.

You just win engages because of your champion, they're forced to freeze and farm under tower. If they push up, as long as you aren't poked down to death, you can kill them easy. You can also get boots/defensive component and watch as they just stop doing damage to you. That's why mages/adcs usually arent viable top.
