"Unconventional" Picks

Just thought I would make a discussion about unconventional champs in their not-intended lanes.

TOP

Vi Has armor penetration, two gap closers, poke (in the form of her e). Problems with early mana costs and lack of sustain. Rengar Has an AA empower, sustain, burst, slow/snare, invis engage/escape. Lack of tankiness and lack of a gap-closer without ult. Quinn Has a gap closer/slow, poke, burst, generally safe in lane with amazing kill potential. Lack of tankiness and easy to focus/shutdown in teamfights. Nami Has poke, sustain, stun, slows, AA empower, ms boosts. Problems with early mana costs and lack of tankiness.

JUNGLE

TwistedFate Has a stun, easy way to gank, amazing shred w/ devourer. Problems with early clearing, no sustain or tankiness. Fizz Has decent clear, easy ganks, can choose devourer or runeglaive. Has no sustain or tankiness. Ekko Has decent ganks, decent clear, can choose runeglaive or cinderhulk. Has no sustain, and an awkward pre-3 clear. TahmKench Has easy ganks, slow/stun, cinderhulk is super useful. Has a slow clear, and cant eat Red or Blue.

MID

JarvanIV Has pretty surprising damage, burst, slow, and a major-impact ultimate. Has problems going in if full ad, so tankiness is required. Lulu Has ridiculous damage/poke, polymorph is extremely impactful, ultimate is really useful. Ends up being a second support lategame. Gragas All of his abilities do massive damage even if you only have a little bit of AP. Ends up getting focused easily if not tanky. XinZhao Has pretty good damage, free armor pen, and an impactful ultimate. Gets picked off pretty easily, needs to wait for the right oppurtunity.

SUPPORT

Sion If the enemy botlane has no real escapes or peel, he's amazing. Otherwise, sub-par. Has armor pen, slow/knockup, good cc chain. Zac Good bait w/ passive, two knockups, slow. Has no heal, shield, ms boost, nothing supporting. Rammus Has a small knockup, armor boost + return damage, taunt, and a massively damaging ultimate. Has problems with cooldowns. Lissandra Has a slow, a snare, a gap closer, and a stun. Has mana problems, and has no supporting abilities.

ADC

Bard Has a slow/stun, movespeed boost, impactful gap-closer, massively impactful ultimate. Has no AD scaling. Ahri Has charm, movespeed boost, ridiculous gap-closer. Has no AD scaling and mana problems. Leblanc Has slow/snare, gap closers, and juking ability. Has no AD scaling and mana problems. Jayce Has movespeed boost, poke, knockback, AD scaling, and 6 abilities. Has mana problems and no ultimate, hard to master.

These are just my OPINIONS, disagree as you may, add some unconventional people in the comments below.

Ahri top it works suprisingly well because of her too kite the lower mobility champions and no one expects it in ranked so they just pick some stupid stuff like i had a game against nasus SO DAMN EASY MAN
