Breaking the meta?

Okay, so everyone - at one point or another - has tried to break the current meta picks and roles for League. What I'm curious to know however, is not so much viable picks that have worked, but the STUPIDEST thing you've used in a PvP game that managed to help you win the game without being awful. So I don't want to see any Support or Mid or Top because we already know that those work to at least some extent.

My personal favorites are in the top lane with Ashe and Ahri. Strangely enough, I seem to do well with them up against people like , , and . You'd never expect to see such squishy champions that can easily be taken out against such picks, but it never ceases to amaze me how perfect laning phase feels.

well I had a ranked match where nobody had a clue what was going on so we had a orianna top, varus mid, me as thresh adc, a zed supp/adc, and a heimerdinger jungle. we all went legendary and destroyed their team at every single stage of the game.

edit: almost forgot, I often go annie top lane, works every time. no mana problems, nice cc and burst, great range, build her a thornmail and you can laugh at all their silly physical damage with your e on.

I could use words to describe this, but instead I'll just leave this link here.

Botlane Mordekaiser for me. I won, but I can't quite say how good it was since my support kept bitching out when i wanted to go in and we got camped. But all in all, it was fun for me because it was always a guaranteed double kill with the adc ghost ^.^

I also went Supp Vlad once... Fed like crazy cuz that was the first time i played him, but my adc thought it was okay since he got all the kills. went 2/28/30.

I once carried my team as adc Gangplank while playing with a ping that was zigzagging between 500-1200+

I've done Volibear support, but that's not super non-meta. It's really fun, snowballs really well, but is super easy to shut down by any competent opponent.

Fiddlesticks was intended as our supp, but the ADC decided to pick Yasuo. He continually fucked up, so I just stepped in and became an APC for the team. 10/10/8. It wasn't great, but for a second time Fidd, I'm pretty happy with it.

I've also taken to Malphite support for a long time. He's fun, not super meta-breaking, and lets you group targets for your ADC post-6.

Think the weirdest one I've ever done was an Urgot Jungle. Can't find it in my match history, but it was AWESOME. His ult is amazing for repositioning fleeing nooooooobs.
