Did I get this right? I can queue for whatever position I want and not actually play this position, pick whatevber I want and do whatever pleases me, as long as I say its just an "Off-Meta Strategy" and the Meta Sheeps should shut up and deal with it?

The very least you might wanna make use of Sandbox mode to test mechanic wise, Off-Meta still has to be viable enough to be equally or even more effective then the 'Meta' for that champion, especially if you want to not get massacred by the abuse of lethality stacking champions currently who can outscale Armor pre-level 6 way to early that it seems unfair to fight against particular champions.

Example: -9 Lethality marks= 14.4 -Level 5 precision= 6+ 1.75(per level, so basically 7.75 right away).

That's already 22.15 lethality which is basically gonna translate to 13.29 armor pen(60% of it) with the extra 9'ish creeping in. Which basically means a champion like Ahri, who has 21 Armor is going to already be sitting at 8 armor right away, I would have todo some proper math, but that likely turns what is originally about 20% damage reduction to about 8%, plain and simple: your taking ALOT more damage as a result in the beginning.

Point is: Lethality Meta sucks, Tank Meta sucks and non-tanks (who do NOT abuse the meta atm) need to be alot less squishie and ADC lethality 'meta' needs to be shafted hard, because flat armor pen ADC meta was already BS enough as it is.
