Been watching the tourney in Hanover, and noticed that on quite a few games there's been a double Shurelya's.
Reckon it'll catch on?

Not a new meta, this has been going on for a while now.

TBH as League progresses any solid meta game steadily fades away more and more.

We've almooooost arrived at a place where there is no meta game.

Either way, a jungler buying an extra Shurelya's is hardly meta game changing.. :P

Dunno what happened on IEM regarding double Shurelya, but I guess he meant to buy it on Support and if present Full-Tank.

But one way or another, not likely.

It's common for a lot of junglers to rush philosopher's stone to be later built into Shurelya's Battlesong. The regeneration helps clear the jungle, the gold generation allows you to progress within your build and the active on the Shurelya's Battlesong is great for initiating with their abilities or ganking. Notable examples of junglers who would typically pick it up: Maokai, Rammus, Skarner etc.

New meta? It has always been a cost-effective item, and always eben worth getting for a lot of characters. It's very underrated on irelia.
Ty MM and Blood for the sigs :3 | Rammus is comming back - heard it here first!

I think perhaps that League has moved on from having "the meta" to having a variety of metas that people use as templates. Just an idea to throw out there.

I was just curious about the double Shurelya's as it's not something I've seen before.

Double Shurelyas has been popular since jungle rework.

And yes, meta game is dead, there's lots of molds you can use now.

Crazy troll game. Skarner jungle, Shaco support. Double crowns totally made a difference. My first experience with this was very rewarding and I want to know more. Escapes at low health were insane and Shaco did more than I expected in teamfights. We could always back down from a fight, or protect a tower. Diving was easy because of double crown active.

Anything else about double Shurelya's Battlesong?
+Rep me if i'm useful!

i'd agree with this assessment, there is an overlaying template for the current meta but it can be easily broken or changed for unique results. That said, this would not be large enough to be 'meta changing' per say, however, running double aura's for certain items, you might have something there
Thanks for the Signature MissMaw!
