PSA

Off-meta doesn't mean Troll. Do not build AP Draven.

Top Raka, full ap is off-meta. Support AP Zed is troll.

The off meta must be viable, without being insane.

Tank veigar is off meta, and very inefficient. Full AP leona is Off meta. Full AD Chogath Bot is neither Off meta, nor viable.

Correction. Full AD chogath IS off meta. Sure it isn't viable except maybe top (the cc combo and extra dmg on aa's makes it acceptable to me) but it is off meta.

Just had to point that out.

Never said he wasn't viable top. I specified bot.

Pretty sure my comment made it clear that I understood that point. Hence why i agreed that it wasn't viable except maybe top. I was just saying that something not being viable doesn't make it off meta.

This is a direct contradiction to what i stated in my post. Off meta implies Viable in said role, but not commonly played. Non viability implies that the pick is intentionally troll, as it is guaranteed to fail.

This is literally what these terms mean.

To reiterate.

Yorick top is off meta. AD chogath Bot is unviable, not off meta. AD chogath top is off meta. AP Zed is not viable, Regardless of lane.

Karthus (ap) jungle is off meta. Karthus ADC is unviable.

I would argue. Of course since there is no "Real" definition for these I feel that the definitions are what we ourselves believe to be true.

For me unviable is something that even if you main it you will never feel comfortable on it because it is useless. Off meta is something that COULD work out if you played it a lot and grew to know it. I feel that a bot lane full AD Cho COULD work with enough experience. I feel that due to his cc he COULD work bot lane as an adc with another all in cc heavy support.

Now I am tempted to through up one of my really trashy ones to see who is willing to do it but I want to do something I haven't done yet.

Well I just got Azir so lets take some turrets! Banner, ohmwreaker, zzrot and a lich bane. Probably some lucidity boots for more tping. Throw on a static for waveclear and call it good.

Time to find a team that wants a Nasus wannabe in it!

Welp, not the best thing I tried. Didn't help that our bot lane lost super hard but w/e, my lane was kinda meh too.

Top Bard ad Bard start is your choice but core is item 3078 item 3009 item 3742 situational are item 3094 item 3153 item 3065 item 1409 (you will get flamed if you take smite)item 3508 (this item is because of picc) item 3036 item 3047

sorry for all the situational but a lot can seemingly work somewhat. Trinity is core though. As for trying this build I have and it is fun (maybe not as much as a more bursty one but still). item 3078 is the number one item though.

Slayer Poppy

12/18/0 (thunderlords)

Armor pen. marks, flat dmg quin, armor and mr seals and glyphs.

Noxian Poppy skin recommended.

Essential: item 3142 item 3009

Crit based: item 3046 item 3087 item 3031 item 3508

Alt: item 3156 item 3147 item 3153 item 3139

It's a really impractical-yet-fun build. Great against tankmos, tryhards, and slayers. But don't ever build it against a juggernaut or tank.
