EPTIMO, it'd be a lot more interesting to have batched up teams that kinda work with each other over teams that work perfectly in line.

Use Riot's Noxus vs Ionia champion pool. 1 Ban per team. 20 player sign up with subs. 2 Noxian and 2 Ionian teams. Round robin format. | ||

Ionia: Kennen. Like Morgana and Vlad, he's a good early laner, deals magic damage, has AoE damage capacity and is a tough caster. Unlike Morgana and Vlad, he doesn't have a good replacement on his team if he gets banned, leaving Ionia magic-damage impaired (Akali deals magic damage, but it's mostly single-target, and AP Ezreal doesn't measure up to AP Kennen). Noxus: Morgana. Many people say Rammus, but Rammus' contributions are: - Tank (Singed can also tank) - Good jungle ganker (Shaco can perform this role very well) - Tough (With Singed, Sion, Morgana and Vlad, Noxus isn't exactly hurting for tough champions) So yeah, Rammus is a good champion, but can be replaced without it hurting Noxus too much. Morgana, on the other hand, is a painful ban because, if at all possible, Noxus will want to take both Morgana AND Vlad; banning the better one out of them will not be crippling, but it'll hurt. With those bans in mind, lineups that look likely to me are: Ionia: Ashe, Shen, Udyr or Amumu, and 2 more (Akali, Irelia, Ezreal or Yi). Noxus: Vlad, MF or Kog'Maw, Rammus or Shaco, Singed and/or Sion, possibly LeBlanc. Ionia's lineup looks a bit better to me. | ||

She literally has no AoE magic damage whatsoever, it's all single target. On a different topic, we should keep in mind that this is all taking place after the next patch. If this patch includes jungle nerfs Ionia's jungler advantage may not be as potent. | ||

Sion is quite tanky, and Sion stun > Singed Fling (or Sion stun > Dark Binding) sounds like a good way to force a teamfight (or get a free kill if the enemy team decides not to engage). | ||

Edit: Further complicating matters is that any well-built Ionian team will have a multitude of disables to prevent your initiation from actually kicking in. Singed comes in, Soraka silences! ololol. Or Singed comes in, Shen taunts him and Sion and happiness follows! This is especially wonderful when you consider Ionia will have either Ashe or Ezreal, both notoriously great targets for melee heroes that only have their movement speed to use in getting to them, with the exception of Flash. | ||

It does not include jungle nerfs. They have not been tested on the PTR yet. | ||

EDIT: For Ionia the Summoners are Poruku, NeoIllusions, Eclipse, Frozt, and Guardsman Bob. For Noxus its Vorath, Edwy, Roku, Poisonidon, and Friend | ||

I wanted to play Ezreal. I really hope he gets picked by someone on Ionia so I can see someone try to play him against 'good' champions. Any idea of who they got to fill the player spots? Do you think they went for the top 10 ladder people or something? | ||
