And you get Rudmed instead!

Is the current meta changing? No, look at your games. Are you still stuck with the current meta. Probaly. Supports are our friends they left me farm up as Graves, do crazy stuff, and stay in the lane longer then i would with out one.

I really think a well played Janna in the jungle can do lots of harm. Double cc until lvl 5,triple from there. Those ganks man, those ganks. Slow to lvl 6 but can really gank at lvl 2 with that whirlwind if necessary :p

I am against asking for rep, only rep me if you think I contributed well or said something wise.

The "Downfall" of the meta that is being spoken of, is actually the final step to all of the Meta's we've ever gone through.

LEAGUE community is FINALLY (Hopefully), over the next year, going to realize that there IS NO META.

GEE ****ING GEE.

It only took like 2 years to discover that all the metatypes we've gone through have counters, and finally we are almost full circle and what used to work is being countered all over again.

Kill duo bot lanes finally emerged since the support nerfs, and those will continue to be discovered and invented, champions long since released will be continued to be rethought and used differently.

Leona + Jarvan bot, Goose showed us this great counter to AD support bot lane.

Graves can solo top amazingly, this I discovered myself. Meaning your team can run a kill lane bot without sacrificing your AD carry. Invaluable.

Things like that allow you to "Break" the meta and still succeed.

TL,DR; Meta is ********, but the lessons that are learned from the shifts in the meta are valuable.

Quoted:
The reason that offensive supports are IN is because of Riots new masteries and runes, An Ad-carry can now Enter a lane with 12% LIFESTEAL!? Who needs heal for sustain? Not me!


You're dumb.

Aggressive supports are showing themselves because its THE BEST WAY TO PLAY SUPPORTS.

Supports are there to assist their carry's farm.

Basically, by going aggressive, you can use YOUR health in order to pressure their AD carry, Janna, Soraka, and Teemo are especially good at this.

Basically, you turn the lane from AD Carry + heals vs AD Carry + heals into, AD Carry + Support vs AD Carry + Support.

The enemy carry has to decide between harassing you as support, or just running away to avoid heavy damage.
Tri lane for life.
