Off meta picks.

scazzman·Feb 26, 2016·1 votes·410 views

For those of you who decide to break the meta. while it may not be against the rules.

off meta picks by their very nature put people on tilt and kill morale for your team from the get go
people will assume you're trolling and will report you for the smallest slip up in chat
there is a reason they are considered "off meta"

so if you want to play fine but remember. just because you can. doesnt mean you should. and please keep it to normals and bots and not ranked if you decide to do it.

#3. there is a reason they are considered "off meta"

Yes, there is a reason they are not meta: People aren't playing them as much. As is inherent with the concept of "meta".

You should learn that there are meta picks, very popular picks ( Lucian ) that perform worse than non-meta picks.

This is usually not a problem in my experience? Off-meta picks, even in ranked games, tend to be accepted in my experience, as long as you explain what you're doing and don't act like a jerk.

I've been playing league for six years, and across every single skill level. The one thing I can categorically state is that toxicity is not limited to low elo.

I always thought that when I was playing in low elo.. got to gold, figured it would be better in platinum, got to platinum.. figured it would be better in diamond.. it literally never gets better. All you can do is try to relax and remember it's a game. Don't feed the trolls.
