Hey, That Darius That Came Bot Lane with Vel'koz Support Yesterday

Just wanted to point out our success in that match that completely threw the meta out the window. I know your summoner name but am withholding it from this post out of respect, but I did want to publicly say that was a blast and would totally do it again.

Just goes to show you that a team that will not crunch down on you immediately and is willing to work with you despite a strange pick is worth at least as much as (if not much more than) an OP champion pick. Kudos to you, fellow Rifter, and to the rest of our team.

The meta is like a rule & rules are made to be broken..................like buildings................or people :D. Sometimes,you just want to have fun & not follow the meta.There's no reason to rage at people who choose to ignore the meta.Not every game has to be played with the level of seriousness you find in a ranked game.

"Breaking the meta" works, as long as your team can adapt. If you truly didn't have an adc in any other lane and instead had Darius, a good enemy team would know how to exploit that, that doesn't always mean they'd win though, it's just a disadvantage.

i've done adc malzahar with support ashe against a full melee (at least 3 of which had gap closers) team (built some things in the wrong order but still went positive and we won)

I also played a game to troll because the entire team went with it. (Not really) Though It was duo bot. Me (Nasus) and Aatrox the two people. I think not doing the norm is more fun in ranked. >.>

Is OP implying that they've never seen a Vel'Koz support before?
